Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing has responded boldly to her critics by participating in the trending “Apple Challenge” making waves on social media.
The challenge, initiated by media personality Daddy Freeze, urges users who claim to have upgraded from an iPhone XR to an iPhone 17 to prove their confidence by dipping their devices into water.
After receiving several mocking comments from followers about her iPhone, Nkechi decided to take part in the viral trend, making it clear that her phone wasn’t one of the so-called “VeryDarkMan” or “Blord” replicas.
In the circulating video, the actress confidently showcased her collection of Apple gadgets before immersing her ₦3 million iPhone in a bowl of water to demonstrate its authenticity.
“I am an Apple girl, as you can see. All my gadgets are Apple. I no go let all of una wey dey buy this (iPhone) 17 wey I buy for N3 million, wey una dey buy am for N450 and N250, and the N50k one wey I dey sell. I no go let una disrespect me. It is different.

@prolific_eric:”Imagine Nigerian youths going back and forth over iPhone and classism while the country is derailing. Nigerian politicians are so lucky for real.”
@_RichieCFC:”Which iPhone 17 is 3 million Naira, iPhone 17 pro max is £1200 which is equivalent to 2.3m Naira.”
@seanelhadji:”The way we glorify devices is crazy! It is even a status symbol for us! I realized that most of the people around me who change their devices on the release of a new version were all immigrants, Africans and mostly Fillipinos!”
@ethsy:”Her mind first cut.”
@charlieman191:”Her mind first dey the first time the phone no gree press.”
@CFCQwarmz:”She say e no be fake, now e dey soak like garri iPhone 17 don enter swimming lessons!.”
@LexCrypt__:”The irony of debating iPhone authenticity while millions struggle is palpable. This obsession with class symbols reveals a lack of self-esteem and a society where material wealth defines status, particularly affecting the black race.”
