The Neo-Black Movement of Africa has distanced itself from the Black Axe, which the police have described as a “criminal organisation.”

This was contained in a statement made available to journalists on Monday by NBM, following a world press conference over the weekend.

It should be recalled that Interpol labelled the Black Axe, a criminal organisation whose members have allegedly been linked to a series of international financial scams and other criminal activities.

NBM clarified that its efforts to highlight its unique identity as a responsible organisation, positively impacting lives and communities across Africa, were being deliberately distorted by individuals who benefit from such misinformation.

The statement, jointly signed by NBM of Africa National President and member of the Body of Founders, Ese Kakor, and member of the Board of Trustees, Efe Akpokiniovo, disclosed that some expelled members were behind attempts to malign and defame the group. They also noted that NBM of Africa maintains a structured database.

They explained that NBM of Africa, as a disciplined entity, remains committed to the ideals for which it was founded, particularly the principles of Pan-Africanism, the promotion of Black solidarity, social justice, and equality for all disadvantaged persons globally.

They added that the motto of NBM of Africa is social justice, equality, and equity for all, and lamented that some individuals were wrongly associating the group with the Black Axe in a bid to malign and defame it.

“There is a conspiracy to malign members of NBM of Africa. We have attempted to remove that particular page on Wikipedia, but despite our efforts, malicious individuals have conspired to keep it up, with the intent of defaming NBM members. We completely dissociate ourselves from the Black Axe and all attempts on social media to discredit NBM of Africa,” the group stated.
