Controversial activist Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has alleged that over N180 million was stolen from his NGO’s account following a hacking incident.

In October, Otse launched the Martins Vincent Osei Initiative, raising over N35 million in donations within hours. Shortly after, music producer Michael Collins Ajereh, better known as Don Jazzy, contributed N100 million to the cause.
In a video shared on Instagram on Friday, Otse revealed that the funds were diverted into an unknown account.
“Honestly, I’ve not been myself for the past few days,” Otse said. “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 explained that the NGO’s app had to be shut down for maintenance to prevent further breaches and assured supporters that updates would be provided as the situation unfolds.
