handed the occasion to the host Royal Father, HRM Ntulemang (DR.) Peter Njul
Neku (V1), Paramount Ruler of Ikom.
After his opening prayer, the Chairman/Founder Mr. Agbor
Martins Enor declared the conference open. He went ahead to tell the house what
Black Diamond Beauty Africana Entertainers is all about.
He spoke of the depleting cultures of Africa through the
influence of foreign invasion of our civilization. Africans are not what we
used to be and that it time we go back to what we were.
This was done through songs by BDBAE who rendered songs to
the attendees.
The Chairman went through memory lane to narrate the history
of the organization and the journey so far, her prospects and challenges and
her effort to launch her work into the world of theater through music, culture
and tourism, agriculture and infrastructure.
He spoke of the pet project of the organization of building
a Miniature Cross River in Cross River State and the provision of 100 hectares
of land by the Obol Lopon of Ugep HRM Obol Ofem Ubana Eteng and 50 hectares of
land by the Ndidem of the Quas for the project.
The chairman took time to explain and disclaim the
membership of one Chief Tajeoke Tazifor of Cameroon who has
been writing petitions to the international communities against this project
claiming that the project was meant to be in Cameroon where the Chairman
initially resides.
The Chairman said Chief Tajoeke Tazifor was a member of
Black Diamon Africanas not Black Diamond Beauty Africana Entertainers. At
present he has nothing to do with this organization.
There positive reactions from the traditional rulers who
even showed interest of joining the group.
