The Federal Capital Territory, Abuja Police command and the Plateau State police command have spoken up on the current VDM NGO’s missing N180 million funds, revealing that such issue was not reported to them, neither are the ones handling the investigations.
Josephine Adeh, Spokesperson of the FCT police command in a statement, said; “The FCT Police Command is not aware of any case involving VDM’s missing funds and is not conducting any investigation into it. The individual in question should be contacted to clarify where the matter was reported, as there is no record of such a case with the FCT Police Command.”
The Public Relations Officer of the Plateau State police command, DSP Alabo Alfred also made similar remarks, noting that the matter was not reported to them, and they have no case on it, since the crime was not also committed under their jurisdiction.
He explained that VDM coming to Jos does not mean the State’s police command are the ones handling the matter.

“The matter is not reported to us. We are not the ones handling the matter because the crime was not committed within our jurisdiction. If he said he is coming to Jos, that does not mean that we are the ones handling the case.
“The crime happened in Abuja. So, he is not coming to Jos to report an incident that did not happen within our jurisdiction. If he reported the case at the Force CID level, it is the Force PRO who can speak about it,” Mr. Alfred said.
The police PRO also explained that if the matter was reported to the FCT command, then it’s a different thing.
“If he reported the case at the FCT Command level, it would be a different thing. Of course, the Force PPRO can talk about it as well. If he can get police officers from where he reported the case, they can all come together to Jos and do their investigation.
“After that, they can report back to where they came from and continue from there. But we can’t talk on a matter that did not happen within our jurisdiction”, the PPRO said.
Since on Friday December 27, 2024, the internet has been enflamed after VDM made a video while enroute to Jos, claiming his NGO website was hacked and N180 million was missing from the account.
He has been accused by several Nigerians of stealing his NGO’s money.
