The terrifying part is this
Ken Saro-Wiwa knew exactly what could happen to him and he kept speaking anyway.
Most people stay silent when power becomes dangerous.
He became louder.
That’s why they feared him.
Not because he had weapons.
Because he had truth.

Ogoni activist Ken Saro-Wiwa's fight against big oil leads to his death sentence. Thirty years later, the Nigerian government hails him as a national hero. Is it enough? ⤵️ aje.io/tc64vt

In 2015, when a steel bus Sokari Douglas Camp built to honour Ken Saro-Wiwa arrived in Nigeria, she didn’t expect the Nigerian state to arrest it. Ten years on with the bus still detained.

The Artist/ Writer cannot be a mere storyteller, he can not be a mere teacher, He cannot merely X-ray society’s weakness, its ill, its perils. He or She must be actively involved shaping its present and its future.

Poetry Day
The power of poetry to expose the beauty and the beast in our environment is undeniable.
The power of the poet to capture the very essence of our thoughts and objective reality is not in doubt.
When the Master Poet steps up to share what the muse whispered in his ears
And give an exposition on the intersection between art and the environment
You want to be there!
Prof Ojaide Tanure will be our Guest Poet!
Join us on the #PoetryDay of @EcoHomef’s #CultureAndEnvironment Project

At our ongoing Webinar @Dumsyl of the @KSWFoundation Makes the point that the lessons of #KenSaroWiwa and his campaign for ecological justice is relevant today more than ever. His ideas are relevant today as they were in November 1995 when he was murdered.
