Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) has sparked mixed reactions online after receiving an unexpected donation of N100M to his Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) account.
The surprise donation brings the total funds in the account to N170M. In a video posted on Instagram, VDM expressed shock and concern, urging Nigerians to come to his aid and stating unequivocally that he is not involved in fraudulent activities.
VDM opened the NGO account to support children in public primary schools, providing access to quality education and employment opportunities for graduates. He had previously announced that the account had N21M barely 24 hours after its opening. The latest donation has left him seeking transparency and investigation from Zenith Bank to ensure the transaction’s legitimacy.
Netizens have reacted with varying comments, ranging from support and admiration for VDM’s transparency to skepticism and criticism. Some users praised his commitment to accountability, while others questioned the source of the donation. VDM’s video plea has ignited a conversation about transparency, philanthropy, and accountability in Nigeria.
As the debate continues, VDM remains firm in his commitment to using the funds for the intended purpose – empowering Nigerian youth through education. The unexpected donation has brought attention to his NGO’s mission and sparked discussions about the role of transparency in charitable endeavors.
