Following the controversy surrounding the alleged disappearance of ₦180 million from the NGO account owned by activist VeryDarkMan (VDM), there has been significant online backlash. Many influencers and celebrities have criticized VDM, with some casting doubts on his integrity and others expressing disappointment in him.

This reaction isn't entirely unexpected, given the outspoken nature of VDM’s activism.

In response, VeryDarkMan addressed the issue to defend his reputation. He provided an update, revealing that the NGO account has now grown by an additional ₦1 million as supporters continue to contribute despite the rumors.

In his video, VDM explained exactly what happened, revealing that the claims of the missing ₦180 million were part of a prank he orchestrated. He detailed how the prank was meant to test the reactions of fans and Nigerians, many of whom fell for the claim.

As a show of appreciation, VDM announced a ₦200,000 giveaway to a donor who paid ₦1,000 into the account. He explained that the gesture was to thank the individual for their trust and belief in him, even amidst the rumors.

Watch the video to hear VDM’s full updates and details about the NGO funds.

A family friend, who is a 200L (going to 300L) student of Unizik, came visiting on 31st Dec and surprisingly told me one of his lecturers - an Igbo man - used to be a die-hard supporter of Tinubu, prior to the 2023 elections because he believed he (Tinubu) would replicate the developmental strides of Lagos to Nigeria. Because of that, he canvassed for votes for Tinubu in his community.

But today, that same lecturer is lamenting like the book of Lamentations and cursing the life out of the efulefu presido.

Just like that man, Tinubu is a huge disappointment to many!

I don't hate anyone o. I tackle all presidents who are performing worst, even if I supported you to get there, thinking you will do well. I remembered supporting Buhari to get there that time. He failed and I criticized. This one, what I said back then was that if he really wants to fix Nigeria, he can do it, because he actually has the capacity and intelligence to do it. But he is already making me see myself as a fool for thinking that any politician can fix Nigeria. Let's bet it, 8 years will come and go and Nigeria will only get worse. You know what I said that? The reason is because I have not seen corruption being tackled. Police still steal and go scot free. Government officials still steal in billions and go scot free. Common people still suffer injustice and nothing is done. They still haven't signed 'Kill Corrupt Politician Immediately' to law and Tinubu is not passing a bill for that any time soon, but National Anthem bill was passed so fast. Private jets and SUVs were purchased so fast. Naira declined so fast and inflation skyrocketed so fast. Billions and trillions of naira were spent for feeding and wardrobe allowances in the presidency, etc.

The conclusion is this, There's no hope for Nigerians.

The Senate President and Chairman of the 10th National Assembly, Senator Godswill Akpabio, has said the country was on a “life support” as at the time President Bola Tinubu assumed office in May 2023.

Japa is not new it all started in full force during IBB regime when most people want to go to Germany, Belgium, Italy, Holland etc so to me Japa not new I once japa, hussled, studied, conquered and returned home doing fine so no big deal just part of journey of life if you apply your brain on it.

Thunder doesn’t need to fire you, it’s “sense” I pray you acquire in 2025.


How many students have dropped out in Nigeria universities ? Show your statistics instead of manufacturing arbitrary figures. In abroad, how many of their citizens make it to the universities? How many can even afford it there?

When foreigners read you guys comment, they will think Nigeria is such a slum. Yes I understand your life can be seriously retrogressing but that doesn’t apply to all.

Use 2025 to reevaluate your life, maybe, just maybe you could be among those making it in the country. Realistically it is looking so hopeless for you right now considering the frustration in what you earlier typed.

And please consider this as my last reply to you as I don’t intend to spend the last day of 2024 with a retard.

MT:
Most of you are ingrates.

You love running your mouth against your own country at every turn.

Compare how much you are paying in Nigeria to how much you will be paying in Russia. In a way, you are getting better gifts compared to this through the subsidy of your tuition fees..

As a Nurse or doctor in training, for instance, compare how much you pay for tuition fee with your counterparts abroad.

OAU students pay less than 1000 naira in tuition fee!

Despite the FG asking Universities to increase tuition fee to be able to fund themselves, Nigeria universities are still one of the cheapest in the world.

Yet, you are insulting the Fg over juice and apple. Shame on you.

You guys are unpatriotic, selfish, wicked souls who can’t be appeased.

Seems you are well aware of my comments here.
Have you seen the part where I did M.Sc. in Paris?
Did you also see the part where I'm not a Yoruba?
I'm sure u think South Africa is something so huge that going there will be a dream come true for u.
Even people who can't afford a proper life in Nigeria board planes to South Africa, for u to think so highly about boarding a plane that teenagers board tells alot about your background.

How many Togolese are here?
How many Cameroonians are here?
I have been to South Africa severally and it doesn't have a working system.
Only those of you who have never been there always say this OR those with îñfèri0rity c0mpIex.
Nigeria is not the poverty capital of the world.
Learn to update yourself that's why you don't even know anything about South Africa and calling it a working system.
Even South Africans know their system is failing rapidly.
Same poverty here is there, everything wrong in Nigeria is wrong there.
I mean every single thing excluding none.

Sleekfingers:
Them you don't know nothing about south Africa. .....

How many South Africans are in Nigeria...compare to Nigerians in South Africa.

I thought naysayers said Nigeria isnt attracting as much investors as it used to

Thank God for statistical data and verifiable business news that holds true


More investors to 'troop' in from Jan-Dec 2025

God Bless Wale Edun and PBAT

Come and watch how stupid people will make excuses and insult this guy instead of picking one or 2 lessons from this post...

In a street of 20 houses, let's assume 15 of them grow fresh pepper... What will happen to the price of pepper around that area

Back in those days, after kids come from school, they join their parents and go to the farm to weed...

That was how some of us learnt how to eat roasted yam and plantain...
We never bought from the road side

But the people of these days choose to be on social media day and night waiting for the government to spoon feed them rather than lookin for a way to solve their immediate problems....

1x2x3:
You continue to overlook the glaring failures of the government. Without the right to possess firearms, how can ordinary citizens possibly defend themselves against armed herders? While the police may occasionally come to your aid, do you truly believe that every struggling peasant farmer enjoys such privilege? If we persist in ignoring the government’s inadequacies—despite the billions allocated to them—then we are, in effect, enabling these politicians to shirk their responsibilities.

I posted a previous topic about my divorce with my wife and i got alot of advice on this platform which really encouraged & have me strength.

I'm really grateful for the nairaland community. The only issue i'm still battling with right now is how to move on, i'm trying everyday to forget the past, but the more i try, the more it's becoming fresh in my heart and the pains too. I won't lie to you it's difficult. Sincerely sometimes i cry and the thoughts of ending my life comes and goes. I don't drink, I don't smoke, neither do i womannize and worst of all i don't have much friends cos I'm more of an introvert.

A snippet of the entire problem is that most times we have an issue and she leaves the house, i've always been the one going to speak to her mum, plead and bring them back home, that's why whenever there's problem and she goes back to her mom's place, nobody from her family would contact me to even hear my side because I've become like a fool to them cos they know i'll still come. This last one that she left, we just had a little issue and she packed a her things and left. So many people not to go to her family house and beg this time around since i didn't send them packing. I swear guys, i've forgiven and tolerated what 90% of men won't forgive nor tolerate from her.

Please guys help a brother with more advice, how do i move on?

Justdare:
Nigeria recorded a trade surplus of N5.81tn in the third quarter of 2024. I trust you know what means. As much as you've chosen to see no growth in your country, the fact remains, the country is moving vertically.
