He was a traitor and he died like one. The people he connived with to fight his Igbo brothers killed him. I don't pity him, he deserved what he got
How was he a traitor for fighting for Niger delta people?

If you’re calling him a traitor, what of Ojukwu?

Struggle continues where?

Not until most people in the south south understand that joining hands with the east to actualize Biafra first is an easiest way to realize Niger Delta Republic, or Ogoni or Ijaw or Erik or whatever new country in the Southsouth.
Continuing to say the SS is not part of Biafra is like sabotaging the struggle of the southsouth.

kenneth kobani and desmond orage should be located. This has to be revisited. Ken saro wiwa couldn't have died for nothing. Even after asking his executioners why he's being treated badly and why the country is like that. Why did the military government hurriedly and hellbent on going on with the execution after many failed attempts

I am reading some rumours here about Ken.... That is normal.

One thing I have learnt in my journey through life is to pick my fights. Don't fight a fight that you're not sure the people behind you will always be by your side no matter what. Also,
if you're fighting for a course, be sure that those behind you will continue the fight even when you are gone.

I look at the present Ogoni leaders, they are all after thier pockets, and they do not care what happens to the people. This wasn't the reason Ken fought for his people.


DON'T LOSE YOUR LIFE FOR UNLOYAL PEOPLE.
That is what we Nigerians don't have especially we the people of Southern Nigeria else we should have come together, reason together, understanding that we have the same common enemy, understanding that we share the same interest and goals. We should set aside our individual differences and say no we can't continue to share the same country with these people. However, it is a pity that we are the ones who will first castigate the person that will lead that campaign and if he was arrested that is the end nobody we want to continue. This is not how USSR dissolved to smaller countries. This is not how Pakistan seceed out from India. This is not how India fight to death for their Independence from Britain. This is not how Scotland forcibly seceed out from Great Britain. This is not how USA gained their Independence from Britain. It is a unrelenting selfless fight and ceaseless campaign movement to death. No retreat and no surrender it is fight to gain their liberty and freedom. Free from bondage of your oppressors and aggressors. Unfortunately, today nobody is ready to that, all what we do is to make noise and rants on social media. This can't solve or help anything

TheRealestGuy:
Head of that kangaroo tribunal is Col. Ali current CG of Customs.

Gambari who defended the atrocity is also a member of this govt.

When you look at all the atrocities that have been committed in this country and see that no one was ever or will ever be held accountable, you can't help but realise that Nigeria is an evil contraption that has killed many innocent citizens just for a certain group of fulani/northern hegemony to continue to have access to oil and power.

End Nigeria now!
All the corruption practices associated with Abacha did not go without Buhari’s knowledge and share of his own.
Buhari knows that Nigerians have amnesia.
Buhari was Abacha’s right hand during the Abacha -led military government.

The elders of the Southsouth in 1967 who begged Gowon to cut the non Igbo areas out of Biafra, unknowingly sold the resources in the Southsouth to Fulani-led north of Nigeria.

You guys seem to underestimate the evil Rothschild family is capable of.

Standard oil a.k.a Shell oil conglomerate is run by a heartless evil masterminds - the Rothschilds. Understand something, the only way to fight Standard Oil and win is to be united because them no dey use eye see competition or obstacle.

Na why whoever rules this nation Nigeria doesn't matter. Atiku himself who is always contesting for the post of GCFRN is not a saint either. He owns the logistics company in charge of anything oil transportation and logistics across the nation. Pipelines excluded.

Which means he is loyal to not just London but to Oga Patapata himself, Rothschilds.

So far as Oil is involved you either let Standard Oil have it or you pay with your blood. Na why people for Niger-Delta go tell u say oil na curse.

Rothschild no dey give up. He bites and locks down like an enraged pitbull till he squeezes out every drop of profitable oil available.

Which Ken? the traitor who was later killed like a useless chicken, connived with the Northerners who killed him to see the end of his own people because he wanted positions and power.
At the end of the day, after killing him like a chicken, his people are still the dredge of River state. Dirt poor and occupying polluted and useless villages.

All this tears will not help anybody.

What ti the difference between now and then nothing.

Igboho is fighting for the survival of his peoole against the fulani killer terrorist but he is in prison as a result of the despotic tendency of the terrorist poo'hari.

Nnamdi kanu is also fighting for the survival of his people against thesame killer fulani herdsmen, the Gambaris, their jihad and he is also in prison.

They are both freedom fighters. Both are in prison framed up by thesame Gambaris. The fulani caliphate.

Saro wiwa a freedom fighter who was all for the survival of his people against environmental pollution was killed by thesame caliphate gambari's

That oil in the ,, dat oil. I thought it was the Igbo's who were after that oil. Saro wiwa you were warned before the gambari used you to fight your own people. Till today the fulani gambari are using the slaves of the south to fight themselves

There is no difference between now and then . The only difference is that the terrorist in charge is now putting on a civilian uniform over his despotic military uniform. That is the only reason Kanu and Igboho are still alive.

Nigerians are in hot soup. The south you people better come together and divide that cesspit.

Ikemba you did your best. Continue resting in peace Ojukwu.

Ken Saro-Wiwa fought for and defended the interests of his people just as Ojukwu did.


In wars, different great men may be on different sides of the divide. It is wrong to assume that everybody must be on your side.

HonNL:
Kenule Beeson "Ken" Saro-Wiwa (born 10 October 1941) was a Nigerian writer, television producer, environmental activist.

He was a member of the Ogoni people, an ethnic minority in Nigeria whose homeland, Ogoniland, in the Niger Delta has been targeted for crude oil extraction since the 1950s and which has suffered extreme environmental damage from decades of indiscriminate petroleum waste dumping.

On the 10th of November 1995, Saro-Wiwa, Saturday Dobee, Nordu Eawo, Daniel Gbooko, Paul Levera, Felix Nuate, Baribor Bera, Barinem Kiobel, and John Kpuine were hanged at the Port Harcourt prison.
