Until you are framed as an armed robber or ritualist, you will know that not everything should be laughed over.
I think u people are getting this wrong
When has resemblance become same as framing someone? People are only saying there is resemblance, I haven't seen anyone expressly saying he Fathered the baby? They are two different things. Someone can say my brother's baby look like me, it is different from I fathered the baby. You people are mixing this up. False accusation is different from this case

Yes they Must.

But was he threatened?
If he is married ( I don't know actually), has it caused his family pains?
Is his wife, ( if married) feeling some how?


Me I don't see how I will go to Court if some one says, for example that I have a Child outside o.

If I know say I no Get, wetin concern me with lawyer and Court.

Thing is, this is going to even spark more rumours.

Cast Ur Mind Back at People who have been accused of related issues and who go to Court.

They always end up bring more blogger into the Traffic.


Thereby raising more Suspicions

You spent so much time still saying nothing much...!

When you get to Nathaniel Bassey's level in life (if you are fortunate to), then you will understand the true meaning and far-reaching impact of the following:

1. Cyberbullying
2. Libel
3. Character Defamation/Assassination


Then, you might also become enlightened by a legal professional that these things are serious crimes all over the world, and are punishable with jail time and heavy compensation to the victims.

What those people did, as trivial as it seems to many of you, can irreparably damage that man's marriage, career, ministry, and good standing in society.


Nothing personal, but it's time to start arresting and prosecuting online talkatives, trolls, and bullies... People need to learn that having a cellphone and internet doesn't make anyone above the law, or shouldn't make anyone bereft of common sense.

Exactly
I have seen a lot of persons saying wizkid first son look like rema, should wizkid now start writing petition because of such baseless comments? All the videos circulating online only says resemblance, I haven't come across any saying he fathered the baby. I think the petition thing is uncalled for

Please, don't be dull!

Many people said the baby looks like Bassey, and that is laughably true.

If he wanted to take offense and go after those saying that, the police would need to arrest and prosecute thousands of social media s.

These particular imbeciles being petitioned went beyond that... They actually said that Bassey is the father of the child! They ACCUSED (emphasis) Mercy Chinwo and Nathaniel Bassey of having a sexual affair that produced that innocent child.

Do you understand how much trauma and damage that statement can cause??!


All of you online trolls will eventually talk wetin go put una for wahala...!

Shebi Erisco Tin Tomato Paste still hook that bimbo for throat?!! Her eyes will eventually see her ears.

Shiorrr!!!

Good one, very typical of most Nigerians. When people were accusing him wrongly, nobody cautioned them when he took action, they are unnecessarily advising him to overlook.

He shouldn't, let them learn the hard way, don't say things you have no proof of, not everyone will overlook, you don't tell people who were busy minding the business that pays them how to react after aggressing them.

A case that he will loose woefully

I said haaaaa this boy really looked like you so what's crime in that
He's using intimidation tactics... That's what the rich do in 3rd world countries.

He's alerting the police to go after them as a means to get them to retract their statement instead following the civil-legal means which is suing for defamation.

He knows in a defamation trial, the case would be blown open and garner attention which may lead to the judge ordering a DNA test.

Notice the pattern... None of them sue the poor/lower class they scare them.
That's what we see in authoritarianism.

Beautiful move. Enough of taking Christians for granted. That's why l like PAPA DAVID IBIYOME.
Please take several seats! What do you mean "taking christians for granted"? Isn't it other christians that are bringing the matter all over social media and disturbing people's peace? Or who else would know who Mercy Chinwo and Nathaniel Bassey are? Let alone know what he looks like for comparison? I certainly don't. So stop making yourselves feel important. No one else cares except you so-called "christians".

And who told you he will lose in court?

How will you feel if you birth a child and someone jokingly says the child looks like your best friend.

Put yourself in his shoes and answer truthfully.
He'll lose if he can't prove they're lying.
Stop using scare tactics.

This report gladdens my heart.

You online riff-raffs need to be disciplined by the law... You imbeciles have abused this "freedom of speech" thing for too long.
He's technically threatening them through the law enforcement to get them to withdraw the statement.
Why is he not suing for defamation instead?

An average Nigerian is a mad person. Next is to request for a DNA.

He is probably pitying them... He has a soft heart.

What they did are actually constitutional crimes.

Please, when it happens to you, laugh it off as small play.

That's if you will ever be opportune to attain such heights in life.

It's such talk that has turned the internet and social media into places for breeding monsters.

Go and research the number of people who committed suicide over such.
Attain what height?
Money?
Nathaniel is a gospel singer, he's expected to promote the teachings of Jesus Christ which has it's foundation in forgiveness and prayers to one's adversaries.

If he keeps quiet on this very grave and grievous allegation, many people will think the allegation is true. This gospel minister is popular all over the world and some miscreants just want to fabricate evil allegations against him to tarnish his image. Not fair at all.
