BREAKING: VDM Bows Out of Auchi Activism Following Tragic Loss

In a deeply emotional update, outspoken activist and content creator, VDM, has announced that he will no longer be engaging in community intervention in Auchi, Edo State. This decision comes in the wake of the heartbreaking death of Phyna’s sister, who reportedly passed away following a tragic accident involving a Dangote trailer.

VDM, who had previously taken bold steps by installing speed breakers and mobilizing the community to address reckless truck movement, had vowed that “Dangote trailers will no longer move freely in Auchi” if anything happened to Phyna’s sister. He even organized resistance to trailer movements in a bid to protect local residents.

However, after public backlash claiming his efforts were “just content,” VDM has decided to withdraw entirely. He stated he will no longer visit Auchi for any content-related activism, urging those who doubted him to now step in.

⁠“Let Izzy leave the UK and go to Auchi to create content. Let Mario and others take over. My works were seen as content — now it’s time for others to help,” he declared.
Moral Lesson: This episode highlights how society often attacks those who genuinely try to help. VDM’s departure leaves a void in the fight for road safety and local justice — a reminder that collective responsibility begins with support, not criticism.
