Frontline gospel minister, Nathaniel Bassey, has petitioned the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, over allegations that he fathered Mercy Chinwoโ€™s son.

Bassey urged the IGP to investigate and prosecute four persons whom he accused of criminal defamation and cyberstalking.

The singer submitted the petition on April 1, 2024, through his lawyers, Peter Abraham, Uche Matthew, Gbenga Agunloye and Anthony Abia.

Last week, four social media users alleged that Bassey fathered the son of the popular gospel singer, an
allegation that went viral on X.

The lawyers, therefore, urged the police authorities to urgently treat the petition against the four social media users, identified in the petition as Okoronkwo Ejike, Kingsley Ibeh, Terrence Ekot and Dj Spoiltkid.

The petition reads: โ€œOur client is a gospel music minister whose songs and ministrations have impacted the lives of so many from different walks of life across the globe.

โ€œOn Friday, the 29th day of March 2024, Mercy Chinwo Blessed another popular gospel music minister, and her husband posted pictures of their son and themselves on different social media platforms.

โ€œHowever, our client was disheartened, saddened, and grossly disturbed to find that the above-mentioned suspects, as mischief makers with a criminal intent to destroy the image and character of our client, had made different social media posts of defamatory matter, calling our client โ€˜the father of minister Mercy Chinwo Blessedโ€™s son,โ€™ a woman who is married to another man.

โ€œThe post by Mr. Okoronkwo Ejike has since gone viral on the platform. In reaction to the post, Mr. Kingsley Ibeh commented on Mr. Okoronkwoโ€™s post with a picture of our client with the caption โ€œThe real father of the baby.

โ€œIn a post on the platform โ€œXโ€ formerly known as Twitter, โ€œDj SpoiltKidโ€ a verified X user, quoted the statement by Okoronkwo Ejike along with a screenshot of the post and added, โ€œWhen are we doing DNA test?โ€

โ€œIn another post, Mr. Terrence Ekot, on the platform โ€œXโ€ made a post thus: โ€œTake a look at the stunning resemblance of mercy chinwoโ€™s son and Nathaniel Bassey. Though duo has been working together on several projects in the past..what do you have to say?โ€

The lawyers said the social media posts by the four individuals amounted to complete assassination of Basseyโ€™s character.

โ€œThese nefarious acts of these suspects, if not immediately dealt with, will continue to destroy our clientโ€™s image, injure his reputation, assassinate his character and cast aspersion on the good name built by our client over the years.

The lawyers said the alleged actions of the four individuals contravened sections 373 and 375 of the Criminal Code Act as well as Section 24(1)(b) of the Cybercrimes (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.).

โ€œThe consequences of making such statements on social media have been known to tarnish the reputations of individuals, render marriages unstable, and many never recover from them. International reputation is an asset โ€” both for the individual and for the nation โ€” and it takes time to acquire.

โ€œConsequently, we urge you to use your good offices to, in the interest of justice, investigate this matter, arrest, and bring the suspect to justice, which will serve as a deterrent to others.โ€
