Content creator and philanthropist, Mitchell Mukoro, popularly known as King Mitchy, has publicly apologised for her recent online behaviour, including consuming a substance during a live video.
She apologised to Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, activist VeryDarkMan, the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi and Nigerians, acknowledging she was wrong and disappointed many people, especially young girls who look up to her.
“Good morning Nigerians. I’m ready to be held accountable for my actions. For some days I’ve thought about my behaviour and I know that I was wrong and I want to be held accountable.
“For the substance I took on live video, that was very wrong of me because there are young girls that are looking up to be me one day and I know I disappointed a lot of people.
“That was wrong of me, I was wrong,” she said.

She added, “And my boss ST (Seyi Tinubu), I’m so sorry. I know I apologised privately but I did not disrespect you privately, I disrespected you publicly so I want to apologise publicly. I’m so sorry sir.
“I want you to know that I will never take your support for granted.”
To the Ooni of Ife, she said, “I’m so sorry, sir. I’m so sorry for bringing your name into this, I’m so sorry daddy,” while kneeling.
Addressing VeryDarkMan, whom she described as her “brother,” she said she now understood what he was advocating for.
“You’re fighting for Nigerians and we can make Nigeria a better place and I’m sorry for coming at you like that.
“Maybe now I understand you better because I had to step back and understand the kind of person that you are and I see that you’re fighting for a good cause for Nigeria to be better.

“And you need more supporters, not people to fight you. I’m sorry my brother. Thank you, Nigerians,” she added.
The controversy began in late February when King Mitchy announced renovating a dilapidated school in six days, which led to a feud with VeryDarkMan, who accused her of being used to improve the image of Tinubu's administration.
King Mitchy also shared a 'supposed' private chat with the Ooni of Ife, sparking criticism for disrespecting the monarch.
Mitchy claimed that prolonged online harassment resulted in the loss of her business Instagram account.
The ordeal intensified when she was seen in a live video, distraught and seemingly ingesting a substance thought to be bleach, despite viewers' efforts to intervene.

Her management team initially reported her death in a statement on her Instagram page, only to later retract it, stating she was alive and recovering.
Seyi Tinubu also denied allegations linking him to the feud, stating he only met King Mitchy once to support her NGO activities.
“I met Mitchy once, in a public setting, alongside others. On that occasion, I provided financial support toward her NGO activities, just as I have supported many young Nigerians and organisations working to empower our people.
“A follow-up meeting had been scheduled for me to receive an update on the impact of her NGO’s work following the donation. That meeting did not take place because I have been unwell,” he wrote.
VeryDarkMan had alleged that Seyi Tinubu was financing King Mitchy's projects and threatening his life, which Seyi Tinubu denies.
