N180m: Police Reacts To VeryDarkMan’s Missing NGO Money

News Update

THE Federal Capital Territory Police Command has stated that it is not aware of, nor investigating, the alleged disappearance of ₦180 million from the account of a Non-Governmental Organisation owned by social media commentator Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan.

In an Instagram video shared on Friday, Otse claimed that ₦180 million had been transferred from the NGO’s account to an unknown account, leaving only ₦20 million.

“I’ve not been myself these past few days.

“Somebody hacked into the NGO website, and ₦180 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 ₦20 million left, while ₦160 million was diverted. We’re heading to Jos to recover the money.”

However, his claims have sparked scepticism, with many questioning the credibility of his explanation.

When contacted on Saturday, the FCT Police Command spokesperson, Josephine Adeh, clarified that the command was not involved in the matter.

Adeh stated, “The FCT Police Command is not aware of any case involving VDM’s missing funds and is not conducting any investigation into it. The individual in question should be contacted to clarify where the matter was reported, as there is no record of such a case with the FCT Police Command.”
