Nigerian blogger and philanthropist, VeryDarkMan, has announced that his non-governmental organization (NGO) account was recently hacked, leading to the theft of a staggering N180 million. The cyberattack, which took place earlier this week, is believed to have been orchestrated by a group of hackers who exploited vulnerabilities in the NGO's online banking system.


The breach has sent shockwaves through the Nigerian digital community and raised concerns about the security of charitable organizations' financial assets. VeryDarkMan, who runs the popular blog VeryDarkMan.com, has been a prominent advocate for youth empowerment, education, and social development in Nigeria. His NGO, which relies on public donations and sponsorships, is dedicated to funding various charitable projects across the country.


Speaking about the incident, VeryDarkMan expressed his shock and disbelief. “This attack is not just an assault on me personally, but on the countless people whose lives we have touched through our NGO. The stolen funds were meant to support underprivileged communities, and it’s disheartening to see it diverted by malicious actors,” he said.


According to VeryDarkMan, a preliminary investigation into the cyberattack has led to the arrest of one individual connected to the theft. The arrested suspect, whose identity has not been disclosed, is reportedly cooperating with law enforcement authorities as they continue their investigation into the full scope of the hacking operation.


The blogger has vowed to take swift action to ensure that the stolen funds are recovered and that those responsible for the attack are brought to justice. “We will not let this breach derail the important work we do. We are working closely with the authorities to track down every individual involved and ensure that they face the full force of the law,” he stated.
