A Nigerian court has granted bail on self-recognition to Linus Williams, widely known as BLord, following his recent arrest.
Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore disclosed that one of the bail conditions requires BLord to surrender his international passport to the court.
BLord was reportedly arrested over allegations that he used the name and image of social media personality VeryDarkMan (VDM) to promote his brand without authorization. The claims center on alleged identity misuse in his promotional activities.
More details are expected as legal proceedings continue.
