Controversial social media celebrity, Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkman, has received a whopping sum of N33 million as donations following the launch of his non-governmental organisation.
In an Instagram post on Sunday, VeryDarkman revealed that he had received over N33 million in donations within 24 hours of the launch of the NGO.
He also shared a screenshot of the total donations and thanked the donors for their contributions. The social media activist said most individuals gave gifts to his widow, demonstrating their willingness to support her despite financial constraints.
“It's been barely 24 hours since I announced my NGO, if I tell you how much is in that account now, you won't believe it. First of all, shout out to all the people who sent money, shout out to all the people who are sending money. God will bless you.
“When I started seeing amounts like N72, N100, N22, N50, N500 I saw massive love and support. To be quite honest, most of the money contributed was below N500 Naira. That means most of these people don't get it, but they want to support me. Love is big,” he wrote.
Earlier on Saturday, in a post along with a video through his Instagram page @everydarkblackman, he had said that the NGO will focus on community development and equipping public schools.
Social media activists rallied for support and promised transparency and accountability in the NGO's operations.
He wrote, “@davido you did not ask me for my account information, before this @cubana_keypriest had told me that I can ask you for help anytime. Today is the day ((For those of you who have been asking for my account details to support me in my DMs, today is the day; for those of you who want to help me collect money to pay me) Want, today is the day.)
“I will be very transparent. I will post the contributed money online for everyone to see, and I will take everyone along. Every penny will be properly accounted for. If you believe this will make a difference, please support it. No amount is too small; Even 5 Naira is welcome. As I said, any amount is welcome.
Leadership reports that VeryDarkman was over the past two weeks embroiled in a controversy involving a popular crossdresser, Idris Okunye, widely known as Bobrisky, over allegations of bribery and corruption involving two law enforcement agencies.
