Social media commentator, Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has claimed that over ₦180 million was stolen from his NGO’s account following a hacking incident.
Otse addressed the incident in an Instagram video On Friday, revealing that the funds had been diverted to an unknown account.
“I’ve not been myself these past few days,” VeryDarkMan shared.
“Somebody hacked into the NGO website, and N180 million is missing. Thankfully, we’ve tracked the person, and one suspect has been arrested.
“The account is now on PND (Post No Debit). There’s N20 million left, while N160 million was diverted. We’re heading to Jos to recover the money.”
He further revealed that the NGO’s app had been temporarily taken offline for maintenance to prevent additional security breaches and promised to keep followers informed about the recovery process.
In October, Otse introduced the Martins Vincent Osei Initiative, raising over ₦35 million in donations within a few hours. Shortly afterward, renowned music producer Michael Collins Ajereh, famously known as Don Jazzy, donated ₦100 million to support the cause.
