My comment were mine and not copied from any source.

And if you mean twisting the article to suit my propaganda then i strongly refute your claims as the article clearly talks about the exemplary life of a PROGRESSIVE.
Interesting, you must be a good article writer. One question are you one of the APC paid agent here

Thanks.

However I do like to state categorically that APC do not have paid agents. We Progressives understand the minuscule value of democracy and true leadership in addition to progress and as such we would not indulge in any form of wagerial service in other to e-promotize our great party.

All what we do and say is of our own will and desire. We are patriots and do not collect bribe or payment to herald a cause. So sir no am not a paid agent. And there is nothing of such in the APC, the PDP might have one I don't know, as I won't want to indulge in propaganda talks.


Thanks.

Vote APC!! Vote General Muhammad Buhari 2015!!.

Saheed9:

He fought against his Igbo brothers to please his northern pay masters. The northerners then thanked him by hanging him. It's so unfortunate for Ken Saro-Wiwa. Abacha was a no nonsense General who was ready to mow down anybody who was slowing down the flow of oil and Ken was his hit-list.

I don't understand. This is a statement he made in court DURING his trial, hence the copious mention of 'my Lord' and also the statement that not only he and his colleagues are on trial. He later gave evidence in the trial in his defence, are those ones not words
The topic makes it seem like these were his very last words just before he was executed just to whip up sentiments and emotion.

I never did that rather I went further to immortalize saro wiwa. And give him the accolades he deserves.



I agree with you. But do not say OUR LEADERS, rather say the UMBRELLA LEADERS.

abeg, most of your so called progressives were also under the umbrella.
Could they have changed some much since they left the pdp?

he really said something that long b4 he was hanged?was he reading a 'death speech' or something?....If I were Abacha,i'd chop off his head in the middle of his silly speech.Seriously,what happened to saying something as concise and yet as inspiring as 'I WHO IS ABOUT TO DIE...SALUTE YOU!'?.....no wonder i don't remember him when i ruminate on the world's long list of martyrs!
