The bitter public dispute between two of Nigeria’s most prominent rappers has taken a new turn, with Odumodublvck now claiming that law enforcement has repeatedly attempted to arrest him as a direct consequence of his ongoing accusations against Blaqbonez.
Speaking on stage at a recent concert, the rapper born Tochukwu Gbubemi Ojogwu told the crowd that police action against him should be understood as retaliation orchestrated by his rival’s camp rather than a response to any wrongdoing of his own.
He framed the arrest attempts as tied to complaints filed by individuals he accuses of acting against him, singling out Blaqbonez as the person behind those reports.
He went further, telling fans that any future arrest should automatically be attributed to Blaqbonez, and repeated his contention that an alleged sexual abuser was being shielded by figures within the industry.
The animosity between the two artists did not begin this year. Their falling-out traces back to comments Odumodublvck made in February 2025 suggesting his 2023 album, Eziokwu, surpassed any other Nigerian rap project, and tensions deepened further during that year’s Headies Awards after an incident fans interpreted as an obscene gesture directed between the two.
The pair had once been friendly collaborators, having worked together on several tracks before the relationship soured.
Matters escalated sharply in late June 2026, when Odumodublvck used a series of posts on X to accuse Blaqbonez outright of sexual abuse, alleging that powerful figures across the Nigerian music industry were complicit in covering it up.
In one post, he drew a comparison between Blaqbonez and a footballer facing legal proceedings, arguing that the only distinction was that his rival had not yet been made to face trial.
He also named specific individuals, including a music journalist, a talent executive, Blaqbonez’s record label Chocolate City, and a media personality, asserting they were aware of the alleged misconduct, though he offered no supporting evidence for the claims.
Those allegations followed an earlier, separate petition. Odumodublvck’s fresh accusations came roughly eight months after a woman identified only as Jane Doe had filed a petition accusing Blaqbonez of harassment, bullying, invasion of privacy, and distributing private videos without her consent.
Blaqbonez initially stayed largely silent on the growing controversy. He later explained in an interview that he had not been troubled by being cast as the villain in the public narrative, but said the direct sexual abuse allegation forced him to respond.
He has firmly denied any wrongdoing, characterizing the underlying complaint as stemming from a past relationship that, in his account, ended amicably, and accusing Odumodublvck of a deliberate campaign to damage his reputation.
The rapper has since taken the dispute to court. Blaqbonez filed a lawsuit seeking N2.55 billion in damages against Odumodublvck, accusing him of defamation and harassment.
In a separate interview, he offered his own account of what he says lies at the heart of the rivalry, suggesting the conflict could be traced to a woman both men had been involved with at overlapping points, whom he described as a non-exclusive relationship of about a year.
He has said he did not know at the time that she was also seeing Odumodublvck.
The arrest allegations are not new to this dispute. Odumodublvck has previously accused Chocolate City, Blaqbonez’s label, of petitioning police to have him arrested in an effort to derail a European tour and has separately claimed that Blaqbonez was once detained by police and pressured to apologize before being released, an account Blaqbonez has not confirmed.
At the recent concert, Odumodublvck extended that narrative, telling the audience that music industry figures including M.I. Abaga and Ice Prince were part of a broader effort to protect an alleged abuser, insisting that none of it would succeed in silencing him.
Neither the Nigeria Police Force nor the artists named by Odumodublvck M.I. Abaga, Ice Prince, Chocolate City Music, Bizzle Osikoya, or Kemi Smallz have issued detailed public responses to the specific arrest claims at the time of writing.
Reaction on social media has been sharply split. Some commentators have accused Odumodublvck of making sweeping claims without producing evidence and questioned why he would fear arrest if his allegations were substantiated.
Others have taken his account at face value, framing it as part of a pattern of industry figures closing ranks to protect one of their own.
It bears repeating that the sexual abuse allegations at the center of this saga remain unproven. No criminal charges tied to the claims against Blaqbonez have been publicly confirmed, and no court ruling has been reported on the matter.
What is verifiable is that the feud has moved well beyond social media sparring into formal legal territory, with Blaqbonez’s defamation suit now pending and Odumodublvck continuing to press his claims publicly, including from the stage.
Whether the alleged police attempts to arrest Odumodublvck are connected to Blaqbonez, to the wider complaints he says have been filed against him, or to unrelated matters remains unconfirmed by any official source.
As with much of this feud, the public is, for now, left with competing narratives and no independent verification of either side’s central claims.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
This is a public feud built almost entirely on unverified claims. Odumodublvck has accused Blaqbonez of sexual abuse and industry cover-up and now says police arrest attempts against him are retaliation tied to that fight, but he’s offered no evidence, no charges have been confirmed, and no court has ruled on any of it.
Blaqbonez denies the abuse allegation and has responded not with a rebuttal on stage, but with an N2.55 billion defamation lawsuit.
Until that case plays out, everything else the arrest claims, the cover-up allegations, the competing accounts of what really started this remains one man’s word against another’s.
