Nigerian social media commentator Daniel Regha has criticised VeryDarkMan (VDM) over the reported ₦50 million expenditure on mural paintings at a school project funded by singer Burna Boy.
Regha questioned the cost of the artwork and why paintings featuring Burna Boy, VDM and other individuals were reportedly displayed repeatedly around the school.
In his remarks, Regha alleged that VDM spent about ₦50 million out of the ₦250 million reportedly provided by Burna Boy on the murals, describing the expenditure as unreasonable.
He also raised concerns about the design of the paintings, the overall standard of the school and the transparency surrounding other donations connected to the project.
The criticism has sparked discussions about how funds donated for community development projects should be managed, particularly when the money is intended to improve educational facilities.
While some may view murals as a way to beautify a school and recognise those involved in a project, others may question whether such spending is justified when the funds could potentially be used for classrooms, learning materials and other essential facilities.
However, the allegations regarding the amount spent on the murals and the management of the funds have not been independently verified. Further clarification from the parties involved would be necessary to establish the full details of the expenditure.
The controversy has renewed conversations about accountability, transparency and the responsible use of donations intended to support education and community development.
