Cyril Ogar
De Norsemen Kclub International (DNKI), under the leadership of its International President, Chief Oliver Patrick, has issued a strong warning to the general public, security agencies, and key stakeholders over the increasing wave of fraudulent social media activities falsely linked to the organization.
The group in a statement signed by DNKI International Publicity, Mr. Anugom Darlingtonon Tuesday in Abuja, revealed that faceless individuals and coordinated networks are impersonating DNKI online, misrepresenting its identity, and spreading false narratives capable of threatening public peace and national security.
“Pattern of Criminal MisinformationAccording to DNKI, findings from internal investigations point to a deliberate and organized campaign aimed at damaging its reputation through several unlawful actions, including: Identity Theft and Brand Manipulation: Unauthorized use and distortion of DNKI’s registered name, logo, and insignia to falsely associate the organization with cultism and other criminal activities, while ignoring its longstanding humanitarian contributions.
“Deception and Youth Manipulation: Efforts to mislead young people into believing that criminal or cult-related activities are part of humanitarian service—an assertion DNKI firmly rejects.
“False Security Narratives: Circulation of fabricated crime reports intended to create fear, misinform the public, and weaken confidence in Nigeria’s security institutions.Incitement and Digital Provocation: Promotion of online tensions through inflammatory content, false claims, and staged narratives designed to trigger real-world unrest and violence.
While giving Organization Clear Position on Cultiism, DNKI categorically distanced itself from any form of cultism or illegal association, stressing that it operates under strict guidelines. The organization noted that its membership requirements include a minimum of Higher National Diploma (HND) or Bachelor’s Degree, alongside verifiable means of livelihood, underscoring its commitment to professionalism and discipline.
Registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC Reg: TC 7458), DNKI described itself as a reputable humanitarian organization with a presence in over 56 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, China, and Germany. The group reaffirmed its dedication to social causes such as combating drug abuse, addressing gender inequality, and promoting environmental sustainability.
However, the organization warned that it will not tolerate acts of impersonation, defamation, or reputational damage. It disclosed ongoing collaboration with relevant security agencies to identify and prosecute those responsible for:Impersonation and identity theftCyberstalking and defamationPromotion of cultism and incitement to violence.
DNKI advised all perpetrators to immediately cease such activities or face full legal consequences.
Members of the public are urged to remain vigilant, ignore unverified platforms, and refrain from engaging with misleading content. DNKI emphasized that only its official communication channels should be trusted for accurate information.
The DNKI therfore reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to humanitarian service, justice, and societal development, stating that no amount of misinformation or malicious propaganda will deter it from its mission to build a safer and more equitable society.

Eagle Times Newspaper Will Be Voice for Nigerians – Publisher Chukwunyere Vows
Joel Ajayi
The Publisher of The Eagle Times Nigeria, Sir Ikechukwu Chukwunyere, has pledged that the newspaper will promote accountability, credible journalism and public-interest reporting in its coverage of national affairs.
Chukwunyere made the commitment on Thursday, October 1, 2026, during the official unveiling and launch of The Eagle Times Nigeria.
He said the new media organisation was established not merely to add another newspaper to Nigeria’s media landscape, but to provide a platform committed to serving the public interest.
According to him, the newspaper’s guiding philosophy, “The Voice for the People, The Watchdog for the Nation,” places a responsibility on the organisation to listen to Nigerians, tell their stories, highlight issues affecting their daily lives and scrutinise those entrusted with public responsibilities.
“To be a voice for the people means that we must listen to Nigerians, tell their stories, highlight their concerns and give visibility to issues that affect their daily lives,” he said.
The publisher added that The Eagle Times would be guided by accuracy, fairness, professionalism, credibility and responsible journalism, stressing that the newspaper would not publish stories merely because they were sensational.
“We will verify. We will investigate. We will seek the other side. We will correct our mistakes when we make them,” he said.
Chukwunyere further stated that the newspaper would endeavour to give individuals and organisations the opportunity to respond whenever allegations were made against them.
“Our commitment is not to any political party, government or individual. Our primary commitment is to journalism, to truth and to the Nigerian public,” he said.
He noted that the newspaper was launching at a time when the media industry was undergoing rapid transformation, with audiences increasingly consuming news through digital platforms, including websites, television, podcasts and social media.
He said The Eagle Times would therefore operate as a multimedia organisation, combining its newspaper with digital platforms and The Eagle Times TV to reach audiences across different channels.
According to him, the organisation also intends to create opportunities for young journalists, writers, photographers, producers, digital creators and other media professionals to develop their skills and contribute to journalism and national development.
Chukwunyere said the newspaper’s coverage would include politics, governance, business, economy, security, judiciary, education, health, technology, sports, entertainment, lifestyle and international affairs.
He, however, said the organisation intended to distinguish itself not only by the subjects it covered but by the quality and approach of its journalism.
We want to tell stories that matter, we want to investigate issues that require investigation, we want to highlight Nigerians who are making a difference, and we want to give communities that are often ignored an opportunity to be heard,” he said.
The publisher acknowledged the challenges involved in establishing a newspaper, saying the venture required investment, commitment, professional discipline and the courage to pursue an idea.
He expressed appreciation to the management, editorial, reporting, production and digital teams, as well as families, friends, partners and supporters who contributed to the establishment of the organisation.
Chukwunyere also assured readers, viewers and the newspaper’s digital audience that The Eagle Times would strive to earn their trust and remain accountable to the standards it had set for itself.
He said the newspaper’s success would not be measured only by circulation figures, website traffic or social media followers, but also by the confidence Nigerians placed in its journalism.
“Today, we spread our wings. Today, The Eagle Times takes flight,” he said, reaffirming the newspaper’s commitment to its slogan: “The Voice for the People, The Watchdog for the Nation.”
