Clash of the Projects: Project Nightfall slams Cacao Project founder over Nas Daily issue
Agon Hare or more popularly known as Project Nightfall released a video today that talked about his recollection on the 2019 incident involving fellow content creator Nas Daily and The Cacao Project founder Louise de Guzman Mabulo.
He also spoke about “Pinoy baiting” which arose as one of the topics from the issue involving Mabulo and Nas Daily.
On his Facebook post, he wrote as caption that he could have just stayed silent since his name was not directly attached to the controversy. He said he hoped those who would watch his seven-minute, 51-second video would spend time too in understanding why the issue hurts him. He also wrote that he had not done anything to deserve such a “HEAVY online bullying.”
“I am recording this video because it makes me sad that there are people out there who right now lost their respect for me for something I’m not even a part of!” he was heard saying in the video that had an English subtitle.
He proceeded to say that it had been two years since he worked on anything directly with Nas Daily, a fellow content creator famous for one-minute videos. Nas Daily is founded by Nuseir Yassin.
Project Nightfall and Nas Daily were among the content creators/vloggers who visited Mabulo in San Fernando, Camarines Sur to make a feature on Mabulo’s The Cacao Project in 2019.
“For a long time now, I have fully focused on the Project Nightfall Organization! That is the only way I managed to grow it to so many people from all around the world. But some people still group me and Nas like we’re the same person working on the same things. We’re not,” he stressed
According to his website, Project Nightfall “began as a social media channel, spreading awareness about sensitive and important topics around the world.”
Today, it has “grown far beyond one man” and become a social movement. It said that the site garners an “average 500,000,000 views every month, have a truly globally diverse audience, and are known for discussing uncomfortable topics.”
After clarifying his relationship with Nas Daily, he began recounting their 2019 experience and said he needed to address the viral post.
“A post from Louise who wrote a lot of bad stuff about things that my friend Nas allegedly said two years ago. Guess what?
“I was there. I went there to work on a video about Louise, too, so I can give you my version and trust me, I could’ve just stayed silent and in a few days forget about this but if there’s one thing that I really dislike it’s when people build their careers while taking other people down. It’s very unfair, and so I need to tell you what happened exactly,” he said.
He claimed the details of Mabulo’s viral Facebook post on August 5 “are not strong from a logical point of view.” Mabulo posted a reply post to Nas Daily’s reaction to her post on the same day.
In that post, Mabulo said that it will be the last that people will hear from her regarding the issue. Her father, San Fernando, Camarines Sur Mayor Fermin Mabulo, also posted in his own Facebook page his recollection of the incident.
