Vincent Otse Martins, who is known as VeryDarkMan, is bitter towards the government of Borno State after he was informed that the affected flood victims had been chased out of the camp of the Internally Displaced People (IDP).
It will be recalled that the people of Borno State were affected after heavy rainfall triggered by the collapse of the Alau Dam, which resulted in flooding, leading them to the IDP camp where they were sheltered.
In his rant, VDM shared that internet personality Issac Fayose and singer Seun Kuti informed him of their willingness to donate N500k and N1 million, respectively, to the camp, to which he intended to add some more millions.
To his surprise, he called his person at the camp, who informed him that the government had sent the IDPs packing from the camp where they were sheltered.
It was also mentioned that the Borno state government allegedly gave them N10k and spaghetti.
The situation angered the outspoken social media activist so much that he cursed the Borno state government and urged international bodies to stop donating to the flood victims.
He argued that the government did not use the funds for their intended purpose.
Meanwhile, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar donated N100 million to assist victims of the devastating floods in Maiduguri, Borno State.
The flood, caused by the overflow of the Alau Dam, submerged Maiduguri, affecting over 23,000 households.
During his visit to Borno, Atiku met with Governor Babagana Zulum, who praised the donation, while Atiku’s media adviser called on his associates to contribute to the ongoing relief efforts.
