Pastor
Ernest Chigozie Mbanefo, the alleged brain behind MMM in Nigeria has
finally responded to claims that he owns the scheme.
Here's a statement he just released via his blog:
On the 2nd of
December 2016, majority of Nigeria media houses posted unfounded,
unverified, misleading articles about me being the owner/founder of MMM
Nigeria.
I found the articles to be hilarious and wish to use this opportunity and platform to declare the following
The Facts
I am neither the Owner nor the founder of MMM Nigeria.
I do not have any contact or acquaintance with the owner(s) or Founder(s) of MMM Nigeria.
I did not introduce MMM to Nigeria, but am glad it came.
I am an Ordinary Participant like the over 2 million Nigerians who are participants of MMM Nigeria.
I registered to join MMM Nigeria on the 2nd of June 2016 (see image for proof below).
I registered to be a guider (knowledgeable participants), and became a guider after fulfilling the requirements of the course.
I registered and own the domain mmm-nigeria.net which expires on the 7th of June 2019 (could be extended).
I
make financial contributions (provide help) to the MMM Nigeria
community like everyone else and accept all the benefits and risks like
everyone else. On the 13th of October 2016, i provided help of
N3,000,000.
Message to Nigerian Media/Journalists - You could have contacted me before writing all you wrote on the 2nd of December 2016.
I
do hereby declare yet again that I am neither the owner, nor the
founder of MMM Nigeria, rather I am an ordinary participant with a super
creative mind.
I am also a super guider (not even in the top
100) committed to helping tens of thousands of participants in the
community with solution to their operational problems, including logging
issue, account blocking, lifting of both temporary moratorium and
removal of Google authenticator, to mention a few.
Let me also say
this; MMM by itself and left alone will run smoothly until Jesus Christ
comes, but the negative attacks by the media creates unnecessary bias
and fear in the minds of innocent and responsible participants, thereby
breaking the organized, well thought out operational structure of any
targeted MMM community, which inevitably leads to a temporary or in some
cases permanent damage.
Honestly speaking, no bank anywhere in the
world can survive the nature of attacks thrown at MMM anywhere. Throw 10
percent of these attacks at any bank and see how the dawn of the next
morning of the next working day will record chaos at the front gate,
with thousands of account holders demanding to withdraw all their money.
Even then the respective bank will have to manage the chaos and
expectation of its disgruntled customers, by creating and presenting a
structured approach toward any withdrawals. So the current freeze in
place in MMM Nigeria is a structured approach towards maintaining a
healthy community.
I am a proud participant of MMM Nigeria and cannot wait to continue in January 2017
Since
I joined MMM Nigeria, like the over two million Nigerians who are
participants, I have benefited a lot from this divine arrangement. I am
not moved of fazed by what the media say and how they have chosen to
attack and destroy MMM Nigeria, my question is this;
How possible is
it that any organization, company, project or business will survive the
avalanche of attacks loaded with lies that MMM in any country suffers.
MMM is not a Pyramid Scheme
MMM is not a Ponzi Scheme
MMM is a Mutual Aid Fund
Long Live MMM Nigeria
Long Live MMM Global
Long Live federal Republic of Nigeria
Together we change the world.
