Can this be the last and final statement we hear from the Universal Zulu Nation? Afrika Bambaataa has been removed as th leader of the Universal Zulu Nation due to the allegations of child molestation.
The Zulu Nation has issued a press release today [May 6th]. They did not refer to Afrika Bambaataa by his name but stated that the accused parties have been removed from their positions in the organization.
“The Nation has announced that it is under new leadership by the International and Regional U.S. Zulu Leaders,” The press release says. “This will involve a significant restructure and will feature an in-depth re-assessment of how the organization will function to better serve our communities. As part of this restructure ALL accused parties and those accused of covering up the current allegations of child molestation have been removed and have stepped down from their current positions.”
Now the Zulu Nation has been called their response to the allegations “ineffective” and that there will be changes put in place within the organization in the near future.
Zulu Nation is in a difficult position because they are “being asked to condemn one of our founders based on testimony through social media alone.”
They “welcome constructive suggestions on how justice could be served properly.” The Zulu Nation stated that they are looking for any resolution that can bring about the truth. Those that are interested in contacting the Zulu Nation can do so via the [email protected] email address.
