Controversial activist Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has raised an alarm over a stolen N180 million from his NGO’s account after it was hacked.
Osun Defender recalls that Otse launched the Martins Vincent Osei Initiative in October, raising over N35 million in donations within hours. Shortly after, he announced receiving a N100 million contribution from music producer Michael Collins Ajereh, popularly known as Don Jazzy.
In a video shared on Instagram on Friday, the activist 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.”
Otse further explained that he had to shut down the NGO’s app for maintenance to prevent further breaches and promised to provide updates on the situation.
