In a surprising revelation, popular social media personality and activist Verydarkman has made a bold claim that the Nigerian Presidency reached out to him regarding his Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) aimed at supporting public schools and ensuring children get a strong educational foundation.
Verydarkman, known for his outspoken nature and viral social media presence, shared in a recent update that the Presidency not only commended his efforts but allegedly hinted at borrowing funds from him. The activist expressed disbelief, humorously remarking on how unexpected it was that the government, with access to billions, would approach him for financial support.
According to his account, the Presidency acknowledged the good work his NGO has been doing, attracting funds from the public for the betterment of Nigeria’s educational sector. “People sending you money, you know, because of the public schools…I want to help children get a strong foundation,” Verydarkman said in his message.
However, what came as a shock was the alleged request for a loan. Verydarkman quipped, “Presidency called, and they said they want to borrow money from me. I said, this year, I’ll be cheap like this.”
He went on to express skepticism, saying that although he had not yet been officially asked for funds, he wouldn’t be surprised if such a request came. “I’m going to be surprised if they come and say they want to borrow money from me. Because I said they don’t contribute like this, something, you know,” he said, suggesting that it was unthinkable for an entity that handles billions in national revenue to approach an individual for financial assistance.
Verydarkman’s claims have sparked amusement among his followers, with many speculating on the authenticity of the alleged contact from the Presidency. While it remains unclear if this encounter was a product of imagination or a factual event, his statements have once again captured the public’s attention, shining a spotlight on the ongoing challenges within Nigeria’s educational system.
His NGO, which focuses on public school improvement, continues to garner support, with many Nigerians rallying behind his vision for bettering the country’s future through education. Whether or not the Presidency actually seeks a loan, Verydarkman’s remarks serve as a reminder of the satirical approach he often uses to highlight social and governmental issues.
