PLEASE BEWARE OF MISREPRESENTATIONS OF IMAGES OF JOMO
Commercial and political misrepresentation of his image attributing to him to things which he never said or misrepresenting things he may have said is being circulated on websites such as those posted here.
You should also be warned, in case you are not already aware, of ‘click bait’ i.e. using such images simply to attract your interest, and then to download your online information for abuse for a variety of ends.
Please inform us and provide a screenshot and weblink to enable further action, which is incredibly difficult.
