Bloody Civilian Allegedly Receives N200bn Lawsuit For Statement Made

Bloody Civilian, a Nigerian singer and activist, has been sued for N200 billion by controversial preacher Lady Apostle Helen Ukpabio and her daughter, Imaobong Elijah Ukpabio.

The case, filed in response to claimed libellous comments on the social media platform X (previously Twitter), seeks a public apology as well as compensation for the alleged defamation.

The legal lawsuit originates from Bloody Civilian’s comments on November 22, 2024, in reaction to a tweet honouring Ukpabio’s 60th birthday.

The tweet, submitted by user @onejoblessboy, contained Ukpabio’s photograph and the caption: “Pastor Helen Ukpabio turns 60 today.”

Bloody Civilian responded by accusing Ukpabio of pushing dangerous activities, citing previous claims and an alleged UK travel ban.

According to the lawsuit, Bloody Civilian wrote multiple tweets accusing Helen Ukpabio of participating in actions that harmed children. Some comments included:

“See she’s gotten banned from the UK for her atrocities, but Nigerians love atrocities.”

“We were kids when this happened so that’s why no one remembers she did so much evil.”

The tweets also mentioned a YouTube documentary and claimed Ukpabio was under international scrutiny for her conduct.

Ukpabio’s lawyers described the posts in the case as “reckless, satanic, and libellous.”

They believe the insults were made to harm her reputation and caused her severe pain. Demands include: Helen and Imaobong Elijah Ukpabio have received a public apologies.

A financial settlement of N200 billion for reputational harm. Helen Ukpabio, the founder of Liberty Gospel Church, has long been a controversial figure because of her witchcraft teachings and accused encouragement of hazardous behaviours.

Critics accuse her of stigmatising youngsters and spreading hazardous ideas. In contrast, her fans regard her as a spiritual leader who upholds Christian ideals.
