Netizens Reacts To VeryDarkMan’s NGO ₦180m Hack Claim—-In an Instagram video shared on Friday, Otse claimed that ₦180 million had been transferred to an unknown account, leaving just ₦20 million remaining.

Thecloudngr reports that social media commentator Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan is facing scrutiny after claiming that ₦180 million was stolen from his NGO account in a hacking incident.

In an Instagram video shared on Friday, Otse claimed that ₦180 million had been transferred to an unknown account, leaving just ₦20 million remaining.

However, his explanation has raised doubts, with many questioning its credibility.

Expressing doubt, Dr J, tweeting as #truebenny001, asked, “Was the money in the website or the bank?”

Basito, tweeting as #Itzbasito, remarked, “VeryDarkMan said ₦180m is missing from the ₦200m donation for his NGO. See scope o, like say we be primary school students.”

Mas Dinero, tweeting as #Mas_Dinero_, expressed disbelief, saying, “₦180 million don vanish just like that? Omo, hackers or no hackers, na who get mind dey this NGO? Because this story no clear o. Money wey no be yours dey waka anyhow? Better call EFCC; this drama don pass ordinary.”

Another user, Mikay (#stephen_mikay), added, “Lol. It is not possible! Banks set limits to certain transactions. ₦180m cannot go out of a bank account at once without verbal confirmation from the signatories!”

Some critics highlighted Otse’s history of scrutinising others.

Star Girl (#lil_maamiiii) tweeted, “If it were someone else sharing this VeryDarkMan story, by now he would have set his ring light, with his dirty sachet water and black singlet, analysing God knows what. Lmaooo.”

Datoyo (#heyitzpearl) echoed the sentiment, saying, “Lol. If it were someone else, he would’ve worn a singlet, carried sachet water, set his phone, and pressed record.”

Adding humour, God, anonymously tweeting as #BRILLIANT_ARIN, said, “VeryDarkMan said they hacked and stole ₦180m from his NGO website lmao. That’s a familiar method: set camera, blow up, then begin to use foolish scope for the fools who are their stan/audience.”

In the face of backlash, some users highlighted the importance of cybersecurity.

Vincent The Therapist (#mrhighfoster) noted, “This is why cybersecurity should be taken seriously in Nigeria. When you know you have a public account receiving a large amount of money, you should enforce its security.

“Now you see why cybersecurity is in high demand all over the world. It’s to prevent issues like this from happening. It’s a very valuable skill to learn for 2025.”

The controversy continues as netizens demand further clarification on the incident, with many questioning the veracity of Otse’s account.

Bugaje Accuse APC of Using Money, EFCC Threats To Weaken PDP Through Defections

Bugaje Accuse APC of Using Money, EFCC Threats To Weaken PDP Through Defections—-Former member of the House of Representatives and ex-presidential adviser Dr. Usman Bugaje has accused Nigeria’s ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), of systematically using money to induce defections from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Speaking in an interview with Arise News, Bugaje claimed that the APC has been aggressively targeting opposition figures, leveraging both financial incentives and potential legal threats.

His words: “Well, for what I know—and I don’t claim to know everything—the APC is basically using money to buy off PDP.

“Some say it’s a carrot and stick approach. The money is the carrot. What’s the stick? Possibly the EFCC. They might do these kinds of things. This has been the practice since the time of President Obasanjo.”

Bugaje argued that the root cause of the ongoing wave of defections is money, warning that such practices pose a grave threat to Nigeria’s democratic system.

He said: “For me, this is a very serious issue. This should be the center of our political discourse. As long as money remains the determining factor, then that’s the end of democracy and the end of politics.”

His comments come in the wake of a major political shake-up in Delta State, where Governor Sheriff Oborevwori and former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, who was also the PDP’s 2023 vice-presidential candidate, defected to the APC. They were joined by members of the National Assembly, State Assembly, and several local government chairmen.

Bugaje stated that he is skeptical about the PDP’s ability to function as an effective opposition.

“There has not been real opposition since the moment Nyesom Wike did what he did,” Bugaje said.

“The PDP missed its chance to be a viable opposition party. Just look at their conduct on major national issues—from emergency rule debates to budget discussions. They failed to act like an opposition,” he added.
