Martins Vincent Otse, the popular social media influencer, who is famously known as Verydarkman, has disclosed that music producer Michael Collins Ajereh, aka Don Jazzy, is the anonymous donor that sent N100 million to his newly established Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO).
VDM initially raised concerns regarding the huge amount that was deposited into the account in a video via Instagram.
In the post, he called on Zenith Bank to investigate the situation.
“I don’t know what is going on, hope I’m not being set up… I AM NOT INTO MONEY LAUNDERING; I DO NOT DO FRAUD (FOR THE RECORD) Nigerians bear me witness, I don’t know what’s up with the account,” he wrote.
However, in a new video shared on Thursday, VDM confirmed that Don Jazzy reached out to inform him that he sent the donation.
The influencer said he received a message from Don Jazzy, which reads, “Morning bro. Just saw your post. Na me send ₦100m to support. I believe in what you are doing and trust you to be as transparent as you have always been. We really need that in our country. I wish you all the best with the project and more blessings to you. It’s not easy.”
According to him, the NGO had already received N179 million just five days after its launch.
Meanwhile, Don Jazzy’s donation has elicited reactions from Nigerians on social media.
