The police have declared Ihuoma Nneji, daughter of ABC Transport Chief Executive, Frank Nneji, wanted over a series of cybercrime allegations.
According to a statement issued on Tuesday night by the police on its official Facebook page, Ihuoma is facing accusations of criminal defamation, injurious falsehood, and cyberstalking.
According to police investigators, between August and September 2024, Ihuoma allegedly led a calculated cyberbullying and blackmail campaign targeting a prominent Abuja-based businessman.
While authorities have not officially named the alleged victim, sources suggest the attacks were carried out with precision and coordination by Nneji and a group of online collaborators.
The case gained national attention on September 24, 2024, when popular social media activist, Martins Vincent Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), entered the fray.

In a viral video, VDM issued a 24-hour ultimatum to Ihuoma, demanding that she retract the alleged defamatory statements and issue a public apology.
“You have 24 hours to take down the defamatory content and tender an apology. If you don’t, I will come out with all the evidence and make sure the truth comes to light,” VDM declared.
As of press time, neither Ihuoma nor her influential family has responded to the allegations or addressed the warrant publicly.
The police have urged members of the public with any information regarding her whereabouts to report to the nearest police station or contact the National Cybercrime Centre in Abuja.
