What do you mean apologize? Apologize for airing what you and I know as the truth? I don’t get this. Is Blackaxe not NBM? Are they not involved in extrajudicial killings just like other hideous groups you find in the University?

When are we all gonna grow brain and decide to get thing right in this country?

And the clowns want to go court? Where their heinous crimes will be further exposed in court? ... jeez! This attitude is typical of our Nigerian leaders. When they get exposed, they lie, lie some more and double down on the lies.

Hey Mr. U still have not gotten this, or you just being sentimental (probably u belong to another confra). Nobody is promoting cultism here. The reports on BBC is targeted at defaming NBM and its members many of whom are not criminals. That there's a bad egg(s) in an organization does not make the entire organization evil. You will be surprise to know that many people you revere and respect in your immediate environment are members. What will you do if you find out, loose your respect for them??

And, why is the focus just on NBM?

Both BBC and the so called Journalist that made this Dense, unintelligent broadcast or allegation must be working for those that are enemies of NBM and they should be brought to book. NBM IS NOT

Blemishing or Mollycoddling the good name and good works of NBM wouldn't stop them from contributing to the society and the world at large.
IF THEIR ALLEGATION WAS TRUE AS THEM SAY WHY WILL THOSE BEEN INTERVIEWED ON THE VIDEO BE ON MASK?

Most people blemishing the name (NBM) are enemies of the good organisation and members of those evil cult groups in Nigeria, they are working to bring down and tarnish the name of NBM but as we know what Is good is good. NBM IS NOT A CULT OR TERRORIST GROUP

It's obvious that the documentary is a targeted documentary by the enemies. If not, why the lopsided report?

This is a complete defamation of character and réputation of a registered organisation under the Law (CAC) guiding the fédéral républic of Nigeria.
BBC has committed offence of libel and slander.

I observed from the short vidéo that the journalist aim of the documentary was personal and biased because you will clearly hear him say he is doing this because of his friend Who was a cultist that was shot dead about 20years ago.

NBM OF AFRICA WORLDWIDE is a Pan African Movement that is dedicated to upholding the intergrity and dignity of Africa and its members. Its a highly disciplined Organization that crime or any form of insubordination is not allowed or accepted.

Its very disppointing that BBC and his racist journalism (which has been their modus operandi) has resorted to tarnishing the image of a well certifiéd Organization that have products of Doctors, Lawyers, Government officials, musicians and other fields of professions.

Its very obvious now that some hoodlums and street urchins will commit crime and possess illégal guns and once they are caught instead of charging them as criminals they will say they belong to NBM which is false. Because NBM has never and will never instruct its members to commit crime.

But not withstanding, as an ultimatum has been giving to BBC. If they fail to comply and apologize they will surely face the legal wrath of the organisation members WORLDWIDE.




I rest my case.
Test and see that the Lord is Good.


Thank you

NBM is non religious, non ethnic and non tribalistic organization and has nothing to do with criminality. I don't see anything wrong with the documentary but trying to tag NBM with criminality is wrong. NBM has nothing to hide to the public. There are bad elements in every organization that doesn't make the organization itself bad.
Metrix147:
The fire stoked by the recent BBC documentary in which it accused NBM of Africa of derailing from a human right defence organization to a violent cult group is far from over as the group gives BBC seven (7) days ultimatum to retract the said defamatory content or face legal action.

In a letter dated 17th December, 2021, , NBM of Africa vowed to proceed to court to seek redress if BBC fails to retract the alleged defamation, insisting that it is determined to redeem the integrity of NBM through all means lawful.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqPdxCh3pvw
In a release on Tuesday signed by the Chairman Body of Founders of the group, Comrade Ernest Amadasun, NBM of Africa alleged that there is grand conspiracy to discredit it by individuals and groups who are heavily funded.

The group insists that if any of its members is found to be involved in crime, such member should be arrested and prosecuted in court of law, saying the name of NBM of Africa should not be linked to personal wrong action of a member.

It says, "The recent Online broadcast/publication and documentary produce by British Broadcasting Corporation against our organization NBM of Africa otherwise known as of Africa has necessitated this Press Briefing in order to put the records in the right perspective."

NBM of Africa continued, "It is therefore embarrassing and against best global practice in broadcasting and journalism for British Broadcasting Corporation otherwise known as BBC and its allies to produce and broadcast defamatory documentary online through YouTube and segment of its organization known as the African EYE against the integrity of NBM of Africa.

"In the said online broadcast and documentary by British Broadcasting Corporation, BBC persistently referred to our NBM of Africa as and allude to unfounded facts that NBM of Africa involves in violence and criminality.

"The defamatory documentary and broadcast which has gone viral on the internet and further broadcasted by BBC on the 19th day of December, 2021 defamed and disparaged our organization’s reputation and character with obvious consequences that have caused NBM loss and divestment of integrity by prudent members of the society, which has caused our organization to be held in abysmal disdain, disrespect and odium by ordinary and prudent members of the society."

How many times have you seen NBM call a press conference to condemn the conducts of erring members?

How many times have NBM demanded justice for people who were extrajudicially killed by members?

Now back to my earlier reply, you demanded that BBC should apologize for reporting the atrocious activities of NBM members. Why should BBC apologize? Members of NBM in this BBC report described abdominal crimes committed. Has NBM done anything about these crimes by members if they were such a noble organization?

NBM has suspended and expelled lots of erring members. NBM had also lend it voice during the endsars protest, NBM had also send relief materials to flood victims when part of the Niger Delta region was flooded, NBM has and is doing lots of humanitarian services. The list is endless. A criminal is a criminal but you can't use the crime of one man to judge the organization. We have heard stories of lots of Nigerian youths engaging in internet fraud does that mean we are all into fraud? We have heard of some Nigerians engaging in one crime or the other, does that make us all criminals? We want to catch these criminals as well, if you see any member erring, you can write us. But to tag an organization or dent the image of an organization for the crime of one person is malicious, except the journalist has something he's not telling us.

It's an organization, i believe they have a way of condemning or even punishing their erring members (they may not necessarily call a press conference for that).

Just some months ago or also, some guys who claimed they are members almost got a lady killed, it was said that other members of the same organization handed those guys to the police. What do you make of that?Perhaps, there are many other cases like that they have fished out the bad eggs to the authority.

I still don't get, is there any member in the said report that admitted being a member of NBM and committed those crimes (forget about the masked 'members')?

I reckon you take lightly the meaning of the words -extrajudicial killing. The testimonies are not one but many reports of members of NBM in clashes with other organizations, which often leads to death, mutilation and other atrocities. Funny enough, if NBM were expelling erring members, I doubt there will any member left in tertiary institutions.

Italian media last year aired report on NBM activities in Napoli and Firenze. These dodgy activities made the Italian prosecution to go after many Nigerians. Many NBM members were arrested and jailed. The crimes involved racketeering, forced prostitution, human trafficking etc.

All these do not sound like an organization really determined to expel illegals amongst her ranks.

The saddest part is the recruitment of high school kids.... what a benign organization, indeed.

Brother, reports on the activities of members of this organization and others like them are not a good read.

This is a report by the Guardian:

https://guardian.ng/news/italy-arrests-30-nigerian-mafia-members/

These ulcers borne out of thuggery at local institutions here in Nigeria has really spread across Europe. The head of this movement was arrested in Italy. That’s how culpable the leadership are in some of these illegalities.

By God's grace ,no amount of cheap blackmail from misinformed imperialists and their pay masters will deter the NBM of Africa from its prospective mission of reclaiming Africa's lost heritage and cultural integrity as well as combating the ills levied against Social Justice and Equality of our people. "We would not let Neo-Colonialists tell our story as Africans when we can tell it ourselves". Kudos to the Founders of this Noble and largest black organization for setting the record straight. #nbmsinotblackaxe

Image of Nigeria? I guess you're good with the number of individuals who die out of cult related activities daily, the future of youths that cultists has truncated, but you're more concerned telling the world that the truth isn't fact, while youths die, right?

i will never support or promote cultism

all i am saying is that, the bbc should not dent the image of innocent Nigerians

sometimes the international Media might paint the story wrong to get more publicity, this in a long run would be very bad for Nigerians
