VeryDarkMan Alleges Comedian Offered N700m Laundering Scheme Through NGO — No Evidence Yet

Social critic VeryDarkMan says a popular comedian was approached to move ₦700m through an NGO with kickbacks; no evidence or official complaint has been presented yet. Calls for investigation follow.

Social media critic VeryDarkMan has accused a well-known, usually low-profile comedian of being targeted with a plan to move ₦700 million through an NGO account in order to conceal the funds’ origin. The claim, shared online by VeryDarkMan, alleges that insiders proposed routing the money into the charity, then siphoning portions off as kickbacks — with the comedian reportedly promised about 10% (₦70 million) for his role.

What Was Alleged

According to VeryDarkMan’s post, the proposed scheme involved crediting the NGO’s account with the large sum, then making withdrawals and secret payments so the bulk of the money “disappeared” from official records. He also said he refused to allow such a transfer through an organisation under his influence, insisting he would rather invest in property than have the funds touch the NGO’s books.

No Formal Complaint or Proof Publicly Shared

As of filing, the comedian named in the claim has not publicly responded and no documentary evidence or formal police or regulatory complaint has been produced in the public domain. Media and legal experts say that if the allegation is true, it would amount to serious financial crime and should trigger an official investigation by relevant authorities.

Public Reaction and Next Steps

The post has attracted attention online, with many commenters urging caution and calling for a proper probe rather than speculation. Observers stressed that allegations of money laundering and illicit transfers require independent verification and due process. Until concrete evidence or an official complaint emerges, the claim remains an unproven allegation.
