Michael Collins Ajereh, popularly known as Don Jazzy, is the mystery donor of a whopping N100 million to the NGO run by Nigerian social media activist Martins Otse, better known as VeryDarkMan, VDM.
VDM had earlier raised alarm over the anonymous donation, fearing that he was being set up for money laundering.
In a previous post, he had urged Zenith Bank to assist him in unraveling the donor, stating that he was not into any fraudulent activities.
However, in a Wednesday post on his verified Instagram account, VDM confirmed that Don Jazzy, the renowned music producer was the donor, expressing both surprise and gratitude.
According to him, he received a message from Don Jazzy, saying he was the donor.
“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. E no easy,” the message read.
VDM shared a video where he displayed the message and the receipt of the transaction and appreciated Don Jazzy for his generosity.
“This is the person that sent my NGO the 100 million naira: TILL NOW I CAN’T BELIEVE IT… ONE HUNDRED MILLION NAIRA left an account just like that. As you have supported this cause to bring better basic education for our public schools’ children, may God bring long life and good health to you and your household. I sincerely have a lot to say to you, sadly I can’t even express the joy I feel inside. GOD BLESS YOU BROS. Please join me to say a prayer for him. #RATELMOVEMENT,” VDM said in the emotional video, announcing Don Jazzy as the donor.
Don Jazzy’s donation has jerked up the entire donations to the NGO since it’s launch on July 12, 2024, to N170 million.
Giving an insight into what his NGO is about, VDM explained that the NGO was set up for the support of children in public primary schools without access to quality teachers as well as provide job opportunities for graduates who would be engaged as teachers.
