Social media commentator Martins Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has disclosed that over ₦180 million was stolen from his NGO’s account following a hacking incident.
In a video posted on Instagram on Friday, Otse revealed that the stolen funds were transferred to an unknown account.
“I’ve not been myself these past few days,” he shared. “Somebody hacked into the NGO website, and ₦180 million is missing. Thankfully, we’ve tracked the person, and one suspect has been arrested.”
Otse further explained that the account has been placed on a Post No Debit (PND) status, leaving only ₦20 million intact, while ₦160 million was diverted. “We’re heading to Jos to recover the money,” he added.
The NGO’s app has also been temporarily shut down for maintenance to prevent further breaches. Otse assured followers of continued updates regarding the recovery efforts.
The Martins Vincent Osei Initiative, launched in October, garnered over ₦35 million in donations within hours. Shortly after, music producer Don Jazzy contributed an additional ₦100 million to the cause.
