The NBM is a registered company in Nigeria, with a black axe as its logo and thousands of members, who call themselves “Aye Axemen.”

Prominent politicians in Edo State and a member of the APC have been linked to a violent cultist group responsible for hundreds of unsolved murders in Nigeria, and multi-million dollars internet fraud globally, according to an investigation published by BBC Africa Eye.

John Stone, a university lecturer and former Axeman, claims that both organizations are “one and the same.” He describes NBM as “formality to cover the informalities” of the cult. A second interview with an anti-fraud activist, a European man who uses the pseudonym Uche Tobias, corroborated this view. Tobias was the source of the thousands of secret documents seen by the BBC and claims he has been investigating the activities of both the Black Axe and NMB for years.

Still strange how Burnaboy nd Davido no dey d documentary

Now we know why Oshiomhole was obsessed with Tony Kabaka. Hope this lecturer thought it through before granting this interview? They will probably come for him.

Oppressors fighting against oppression😄😄 NBM a refined name for BLACK AXE.

For every action you will get a reaction

The documentary made no mention about celebrities openly and brazenly promoting cultism. smh.

Edo and confra be like oil and salt

That's why they are never held accountable for their crimes. The big wigs are low-key patrons and financiers

Cultism has gone beyond just trying to profile Edo Politician. Shine your eye and you will know that it is happily married to some Politicians for their selfish ambition of Win or your funeral. It's gonna get ugly from secondary to Primary school soon. Just Suru

So nah only black axe be the only cult group in 🇳🇬

Most of the British politicians are free Masons [a kind of cultism], including their royals. Can BBC also tell us more about them? And let us visit that secret room of theirs in London they wouldn't allow people to enter? PS: Not condoning cultism o

Hehe..

The reason why people were surprised at the hailing the Deputy Governor was getting during last poll.

Kontrolla19 you see wetin I see?

No be new thing na All Edo politicians and police officers are cultist

Most unfortunate report about cultism n Edo state. Recall that in the past, ogboni cult society is headquartered in Edo as well.Even the witches worldwide are known to meet in Benin city. What a notoriety with evil things.

Such a good documentary 💯

To join them you need to be in some sort of gang ..... there is always a cabal. Politics is a very dirty game.

Cultism should be deleare Terrorist organisation, they are Terrorising mostly the young Nigerians in Schools, which lead to more decay in the Society.

It is no longer hidden. Most politicians, polices, DSS, military, showbiz, etc are members of the cult groups especially, the Black 🪓. It will be difficult to clean Nigeria from cultism. That's the reason they are recruiting from the primary schools.

Tony Kabaka is a well known. Black axe.. they came to my friends father shrine in Benin.. and killed the man they saw their.. they said the native. D threaten their boss.. to they came to attack... We were Young then.. they slapped my friend.

This documentary deserves an award. I enjoyed every bit of it.

Congratulations to everyone Involved in this conversation. it's been a Rough Ride. Whose Gumming Body

Most of them politicians, if not all, belong to one cult or the other lol

this is just disgraceful, they need to be trialed and jailed but knowing nigeria, u just know nothing is gonna happen

E don set!!!

Very true

our cultural export 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

They act like they don't know most politicians belong to one group or the other.
