- Ken Saro-Wiwa was a Nigerian activist and a martyr, a brave and inspiring campaigner who led his Ogoni people's struggle against the decades-long defilement of their land by oil companies. Unfortunately, he ended up paying for it with his life. Today, the struggle still goes on and the legacy of Ken Saro-Wiwa lives on.
Each time I watch this it reminds me of the legacy of good people lives for ever. Today Abacha is gone, Ken is gone, but Ken is remembered for good deeds, Abacha for wickedness and evil.
He put Ogoniland "on the map," the man says...Why ? because he was such a superlative writer, that is the sentence after sentence. perfect. (His daughter Noo is damn good too). I found his book I think in the British Council library in Dar es Salaam, in 2000, is where I discovered Ken Saro-Wiwa. from the USA. thank you.
menh the man could write novel, scripts you name it.
The unjust killing of Saro-wiwa still represents a scar on the conscience of the nation called Nigeria.
What saro-wiwa stands for remains at the core of the problems of the Nigerian state. It remains an unresolved and unaddressed direct indictment against Nigeria. Nigeria can therefore not find rest until there is justice for Saro-Wiwa.
Nigerian is no nation. It's a British carved catastrophe sharing geographical boundaries
This was a story I followed in the midst of a brutal civil war in my country, Liberia. It touched me a lot. The Ogoni people were betrayed by the rest of Nigeria.
I wonder if we can still have this kind of selfless leader in our world today. I heard about Ken since early 90's, but sincerely untill his death I never knew how powerful he was. I'm proud to be an Ogoni. The struggles of Ken has only embolded me. U can kill a messenger but u can't kill the message. For me, living life means nothing if that life cannot be sacrificed for an idea that one holds so dearly. I love my people and I'm happy Ken has given me a voice.... One day, justice will reign in our land!
The youth must NOT let his message die. We are not free until we are free! People are still suffering today from the unjust poison of Ogoni land by Shell.
ÞSo wait a Chinese media firm is posting documentaries about African freedom fighters while China is persecuting it's own people who dare demand freedom from evil communism, while at the same time enslaving Africa via bad debts and neo colonialism? What kind of irony is this?
These documentaries are meant to hoodwink Africans that China is one of us...but be not fooled sons and daughters of the soil...it is a facade....China ain't our friend...the dragon is the devil.
Tear's dropped off my eyes hearing this history for the first time..he was a great hero that can not be replace by anyone in this country today! Rest on man struggle continue
Kenneth Bassey great man indeed. I almost teared up too😢
They wanted him to be forgotten forever
Blacks distriminating each others,God bless Ken Saro Wiwa. And shame to the authorities who killed him.
This just shook a sad and powerful reminder of how the colonial powers would use agents of one African ethnicity against another to achieve their goal of manipulation as during the slave trades. Seeing this for the first time, and seeing the struggles for Ken Saro-Wiwa's struggle for his people, the Ogoni people just showed the magnitude of a man he was to stand up for the rights of his people and in essence an example to others facing such dire straits to do the same in respect to their own concerns.
Indeed a true son of Africa and great Nigerian patriot.May his legacy inspire more NIgerians to fight for freedom of speech and equity.Fondly remembered and idolized in India through Ken Sarowiwa Hall near ISBT in New Delhi in 1993.The Hall hosted an international seminar on language and nationalism which i was privileged to attend alongside famous Kenyan writer Ngungi wa Thiong'o with whom we shared lunch reminscing on "Decolonising the mind".That was the period when gatherings of more than three people could earn you the brand of a traitor and a prison term.Peace and blessings to the Ogonis and others who find themselves in such injust social and economic situations.

Cool
Today I mourn Ken Saro Wiwa. I felt his pains and frustrations as a minority group in the north central and it is my resolve to stand for the same ideals he stood for and dare to die for that which he died for...JUSTICE!!!
AFRIKA LOVES KILLING HER SUN'S N FORGETTING THEM R.I.P 2 ALL THE FALLEN SUN'S OF MAMA AFRIKA

If by my death my people shall be free, Lord! take my soul but the STRUGGLE CONTINUE - Ken Saro Wiwa
Xami Wan: it's only Jesus that sets people free. Nobody can set anyone free by sacrificing themselves. We can sacrifice our lives for a worthy cause only
yes that's true talk But Our lives need someone no matter whom You are or what you have your lives need someone as your destiny Helper thanks for the privilege and the wisdom.
Jesus Christ son of God have mercy on us
so much touched
Wow!!! DEEP!
When Ken Saro Wiwa wrote a short story titled "Africa Kills Her Sun", little did he know that it would come to happen to him. RIP great man.

Sure. That was my favorite story in Encounters from Africa.
h
Africa kill her son ~ Ken Saro Wiwa
Ken was such an inspiration. So appreciative of his work.
You know it’s really terrible when even Mugabe disapproved
Big facts 💯!!
KEN SARO WIWA could not believe what happened to him.
Lesson:
DO NOT SABOTAGE YOUR OWN PEOPLE'S EFFORTS TOWARDS THEIR LIBERATION.
He never, in his wildest dreams, believed Abacha would confirm his death sentence!
From Oputa panel's revelations, on the day of his execution, he was unable to face his fate with fortitude because he believed that his sentence would be commutted by his BEST FRIEND, SANI ABACHA.
When they came for him, he kept on asking if Abacha was aware?
He Resisted being led to the execution point, kept on protesting for time as he expected reprieve would come at the 11th hour.
To calm him, he was shown the execution order signed by Abacha, but he frantically denounced it as fake, demanding audience with Abacha immediately.
The officer commanding the squad, a junior officer told him, the only report his superiors would listen to would be report of his death and nothing else.
Wiwa reverted to telling his killers how close he was to Abacha; the afternoons they spent playing tennis at 2nd Artillery brigade in Port Harcourt in the 70s, the nice evenings they used to have. That during the Ogoni protests, based on their old times as friends and best buddies, he had expected Abacha to have called him and asked him the least Ogoni would have accepted.
Wiwa pleaded and pleaded for his life to be spared. His pleas fell on deaf ears.
"Oh God", he screamed, let my pleas work. His eyes were greasy with welling tears.
Why should today be his last day on earth?
What crimes did he commit? That he asked for his people to have a share of the wealth that comes from their land? The land that no longer supports farming or fishing because of pollution from oil spillage.
He mistook the officer's dark reflections for contemplations of pity!
Any independent observer would conclude that Saro Wiwa deserved pity and more. He had worked for it. His efforts during the civil war shortened its duration and saved thousands of Nigerian soldiers' lives.
You see, while Biafran soldiers blocked Omanelu and Isiokpo axis through Elele Junction, Saro Wiwa was able to organise guides who guided the Nigerian soldiers to infiltrate through Etche, Alulu, link up to Ihiagwa and Nekede, connect Obosima and cut-off Biafran soldiers who had successfully blocked the 3rd Marine Commandos Advance led by Black Scorpion, Benjamin Adekunle.
Wiwa was rewarded with appointment as the Civilian Administrator of the port city of Bonny.
And it was really this bit of history that was the bone of contention.
He rightly or wrongly believed he had equal stake in the territory called Nigeria, having staked his life and helped in defeating those who were neigbours to him - the Igbos.
So, the shares of spoils of war, for which oil was the paramount spoil, should be extended to his people, because, without their efforts, it would have been impossible to subdue Biafra in the battle field.
Remember that the 3rd Marine Commandos were eventually routed from Owerri, just before the end of the war, wherein Black Scorpion among the few to escape, had to escape dressed as a woman, for which he was court- marshalled and dishonourably discharged. Benjamin Adekunle, the Black scorpion, died a pauper, neglected by the federal side he fought for.
On the other hand, Wiwa's erstwhile partners in conquest/crime, Fulanis, believed they had more than adequately rewarded him by making him an administrator of the city of Bonny and also making him a commissioner in Rivers State.
So he should keep off the oil, whether it was drilled from his village or not.
Posterity would judge who was right between him and those Abacha represented. For me as a scholar, I believe his requests or demands were quite in order.
Eye wey see deal, dey follow share. The child who pounded the pepper is entitled to a share.
Wiwa's fate had been decided the day he asked about the oil.
The recipients of the message were people from the oil-producing communities. None would dare ask questions about "our oil" after Ken Saro Wiwa's execution.
At that point, the captain gave his orders and he was lifted up, struggling and protesting till he was tied up and killed.
When the question of the whereabouts of Wiwa's body was raised at the Oputa panel, one of the soldiers giving evidence reported that it was completely dissolved in acid.
☝🏾This is an intelligent narrative beautifully written.
But I should add that Mr Saro-Wiwa - like Adaka Boro, and many other "Niger Delta" youths who would betray their new republic - had studied at secondary schools and university on old Eastern Nigeria scholarship.
It should also be noted that because of Saro-Wiwa's betrayal, he was also rewarded with countless number of "ABANDONED PROPERTIES", including some previously belonging to Chief John Anyaehie (late father of Barr Nnamdi Anyaehie), CoS to Governor Uzodinma).
Late Sani Abacha and late Saro-Wiwa onced lived together in one of the ABANDONED PROPERTIES he had seized FROM IGBOS..
Ken Saro Wiwa's Son, Ken Jnr, also died very young. He died suddenly in London on 18 October 2016, aged 47, after suffering a stroke.
Another son, who had mental health issues, died last year, 2020, of Covid.
Finally, recall that, before Saro-Wiwa's arrest, he had run to the SAME Enugu and the SAME Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, whom he had betrayed, to ask for Igbo intervention in his murder case. It was then that Ojukwu sarcastically uttered that immortal word "Okokorokoooo" (Cock crowing in the morning - Good morning) - to the frightened Ogoni man.
The meeting that Saro-Wiwa attended was at Hotel Presidential Enugu, built by Michael Okpara who had given Saro-Wiwa scholarship to study at Government College Umuahia - and also betrayed by Saro-Wiwa!

Thank you.
Link to the story please
His daughter is stunning and extremely articulate. She could easily be a super model. It is a terrible tragedy that Gen. Abacha got away with killing him.
Why a super model... they are over-sexed unappreciated women who rely on their make up
Read her book. Great travel writing. Just because she's beautiful doesn't mean her only worth is as a super model in Europe. Nigerians are articulate. And she writes for the Guardian
Wonderful humanity, blessing to all of them.
As an African American His story makes us proud yet very frustrated. The world owes Africa billions of dollars and until Africa becomes one continent and mobilizes its power it will never be compensated properly or gain any power. This wouldn’t keep happening if the people and countries were unified. The resources the money the brain power the hearts of the people to see past the bullshit and help each other take control and build a better world for everyone!!
But today the struggle dies because people you fight for have joined the corrupt government and they are afraid of death
I'm most interested in the part of unknown assailants that killed the Ogoni leaders. That's the false flag that was used to kill him.
A man of sparkling wisdom, his memories shall never be forgotten.
Saro might be dead, but the struggle continues. This is a lesson to other African governments.
Shell paid Ogoniland $15 million? That's peanuts compared to what they've extracted & the environmental degradation they caused. That's not justice, it's cruel & unusual punishment. They wouldn't dare do such in the western world. BP paid billions & continue to pay to this day for the oil spill in the Gulf Coast in the U.S.
Rest in peace, Ken. I am reading one of his books.
I can't believe Igbos are mentioned as one of those marginalizing Ogoni people!!!!
Igbos that escaped extinction by genocide via pogroms and civil war?
When was the last time we shared a state with Ogoni people?
When was the last time,Igbos ran affairs in Nigeria?
From the oil boom of 1970s till now,what has Igbos got to do with this? Really?
Ken may your soul rest in peace.
One day justice will prevail,if the Lord tarries
I'm a proud Ogoni man
I am ogoni and I am saddened buy this
By..... .buy.... Try to check back..
There is nothing unusual or strange about Kens death. Reading the scriptures, the prophets and several of God's messengers including JESUS were killed and so do we also have in our contemporaneous society. But one thing unique in all these killings associated with truth telling is that the MESSAGE REMAINED UNKILLED while the messengers have been killed at onetime or the other
"The message remained unkilled"
BLACK STARR: oh yeah. Jesus is real my friend. Don't speak out of ignorance or arrogance
BLACK STARR : and what created you? You think it's marine spirit? In the name of Jesus every knee will bow on earth in heaven and under the earth. Juju and voodoo you believe in is the work and deception of Satan the chief antichrist
@@zion-pikin5968 Jesus Christ is forever King of kings. Lord of lords. Creator and was not created. First and the last. At the mention of HIS name every knee must bow.
Echendu Onyekachi : hallelujah praise Christ Jesus
He was killed by shell oil company a joint Dutch and British colonial vampire
Abacha took responsibility for his killing and not Shell
Which one am I going to believe now
@@kolawolebabatunde8712 Whichever one that makes you more comfortable
Take some responsibility brother. It isnt the British that's stealing the wealth of Africa at moment but hedonistic and kleptocratic indigenes we call leaders.
No, he was killed by The Wicked Abacha
GOD so their is people's That Ready to die for humans right and safe the lives of others and mostly the poor . God I'm feeling touched about these great man.

These documentaries are meant to hoodwink Africans that China is one of us...but be not fooled sons and daughters of the soil...it is a facade....China ain't our friend...the dragon is the devil.
i wonder why some broken people will give this docuseries thumbs down...R.I.P Ken Saro Wiwa...he found his course in life and went through boldly...respect...Abacha, where is he from? Hausa or Fulani?? i wonder if hez resting in peace.
One of the dark chapters of Nigeria’s history...R.I.P. Mr Wiwa.
Lord give me grace to touch the life of needy also a safe lives for you as this great man
Abacha didn't contribute anything to Nigeria, yet he had the audacity to murder those who were industrious. Wiwa was a playwright, activist, author, business tycoon, etc. Abacha was a soldier of no immense value to the republic.
The money he stole alone can not still be recovered till date. He killed innocent men, no wonder he died a terrible death. Did such a wicked man make heaven? Only God"s mercy and decision is the final. My heart weep when souls go to hell. Abacha's death and his whereabout today is a wake up call for rulers. The Lord Jesus Christ does not want any one in hell, and offers time for us all to be prepared, by virtue of our life-time. The bible says except you repent, you shall like wise perish. Only God knows when he will call our number. It does not matter when, what matter is for us to be ready daily and always. It is appointed for men to die once after that is judgement Hebrew 9:27.
Nope! Abacha is more important. He is a Fulani man and a general. You need one or two of that to be sure of safety in Nigeria.
Saro wiwa killed local chiefs so justice was served
@@bolanlebamidele683 abacha wasn't a fulani man, he was from kanuri
@@powerman6952 Thank you very much for the information.
Tears dropped from my eyes after hearing this story we will all die one day, I pray that the wicked shall never go unpunished.
Look at all the Brains we lost becsuse of this gift God gave us called oil..
The body of hero can get perish, but the vision couldn't lost until the history become reality and successful in the years to come..I love to African life regaining, united and work for the service of unity.
God my heart was so bitter about this innocent man
Enorme testemunho este documentário sobre Ken Saro-Wiwa, admirável patriota nigeriano e africano. Tive a oportunidade de conhecer o seu vasto e versátil trabalho através da comunicação social e do seu livro Um mês e um dia, traduzido e publicado para português, nos anos noventa.
So igbo following the marginal ogoni that fallacy story
My dear,
I saw that too!!!
Igbos that escaped extinction by genocide via pogroms and civil war?
When was the last time we shared a state with Ogoni people?
When was the last time,Igbos ran affairs in Nigeria?
Ken Saro Wiwa and the Ogoni people had nothing to do with your so called abandoned properties, the Ogonis activities were mainly to defend themselves against the onslaughts from all side. I don't think the Ogoni people have any problem deifying a great Ogoni man like Ken Saro Wiwa but they will definitely have serious problems glorifying a betrayal like Odumegwu Ojuku. My question is what is the difference btw the sacrifices made by Ken Saro Wiwa and the sacrifices by Jesus Christ of Nazareth that's read about in the Bible?
His son Ken Wiwa has written a beautiful autobiography that also provides Kan Saro-Wiwa's biography in a way. All this info is just part of what the son says. I like where he admits that his story begins where his father's ends.
Good morning my people!
I lived in West Africa from 2/67-2/70. Never heard of any concern for the neighboring countries helping their brothers. Now, as an adult, I can see why. Like one of my brothers said in his comments,”the same people that killed him are still in power today” . May his soul ever Rest In Peace🙏❤️ as the struggle continues!
It PAINS Nailed on the CROSS, Yeshua , John 10:10;3:16;&6:37?
புரட்சி எப்போதும் வெல்லும் ! 💜
Great Environmental Activist !
What an Hero ken
As a young boy ken was my hero, my idol. Abacha the pig is not a real man. Let’s fight for ogoni people
I really enjoy his novels, sozaboy and forest of flowers
THE SAME THING SOWORE IS TALKING ABOUT......NOBODY SUPPORTS HIM NOW, UNTIL THE MAN IS GONE ,...I MEAN SOWORE.... WHEN KEN SAROWIWA WAS TALKING ABOUT IT THEN, NOBODY SUPPORTED HIM , NIGERIANS LEFT THE WHOLE PROTEST FOR THE OGONI PEOPLE, NIGERIANS FORGOT OR FORGET THAT IT'S WAS A PROTEST FOR THE WHOLE NIGERIANS....TODAY AGAIN , SOWORE IS TALKING ABOUT IT NOW NOBODY SUPPORT HIM FOR REVOLUTION. UNTILL THE MAN IS GONE ......NIGERIANS LIKE OR LOVE THERE OPPRESSOR MORE THAN THE ONE ATTACKING THERE OPPRESSOR......
Today on 01.10.2023 on independence day of Nigeria I want to salute Ken Saro Wiwa and people of Ogoniland. Big love from south Sudan
Can someone tell me the title of the song sang by the ladies at the end? it is beautiful and utterly meaningful..
asih simanis The Ogoni anthem!
Great man! I'm reading his book.
Rest in peace.
a marytr indeed. I will read that. I am reading his daughter Noo's book
A True Patriot. Real HERO in my opinion. The Great KSW lives on.
May his soul rest in peace.
sorry for our nation
This is really painful. I wonder how his family especially his children have managed to live through the pain of how a lesser man in relation to the quality of the human spirit executed a quality human being like their dad. The pursuit of justice can be very expensive. May his rich soul continue to live in peace.
RIP to Ken Saro-Wiwa and his son Ken Wiwa who died in 2016, at an earlier age than his father
What caused saro wiwas son's death please tell I'm from Kenya?
@@tomadoyo8271 He died from a stroke in 2016 at the age of 47
See the damn irony is that CGTV is reporting this......
And-yS Sadly
Saro-Wiwa: One of A Few Good Men.

#Revolution 4 Nigeria Now
I'll never forget this.judicial.murder..i changed my view of Nigeria then..from CALI..lol d
So sad
SUPPORT BIAFRA!!
A very deep sigh I gave listening and watching this documentary.
Oil companies, governments of Nigeria & the people raped ogoniland & the effect is still there today.
Ken Saro Wiwa story is a story of a great man with great will. The fact remains that Ken was murdered by multinational oil companies particularly Royal Dutch Shell. These companies instigated the Ogoni crisis and engineered the execution of Ken and other innocent Ogonis. Shell needs to take responsibilities for the Ogoni crisis, because the company and its partners were responsible for what's happening to the Ogoni people including the destructions and killings in Ogoni villages during that period. The Hausa-Fulanis, Yorubas, and Igbos in charge of the so called federal govt of Nigeria were apprehensive and freaked out about the stoppage of oil and the implications for the petrodollars that's fueling Nigeria's gross corruption, but careless about the destructions cause by oil drilling in Ogoniland.
Ken knew he was going to be killed but he made the decision to fight these giants like those multinationals that operates in the Niger Delta and the Nigeria government. Even when it was obvious that he was going to be killed, Ken still refused to botch or run away just like Odumegwu Ojuku did during the Igbo Biafra War. Here is what many people didn't know about the rush to execute Ken. The rush to execute Ken before the 30 days clemency period elapses was triggered by one Igbo man name Emeka Anyaoku, who was then the Secretary General of the Commonwealth of Nations. This Emeka Anyaoku advised Abacha that if Ken was not executed immediately that it would be difficult to carried out the execution after the Commonwealth of Nations convened and reconvened. Like Abacha, this Anyaoku is an evil man and he’s going to rotten in hell. The good thing was that Ken completed his work before he was murdered, he's now looking down from heaven. May his soul rest in peace!!
Ken Saro-Wiwa is not the angel that some of you like to make of him. Ken Saro-wiwa preyed, promoted and profited from the death of the Igbos. Ken Saro Wiwa in collaboration with the wicked Nigerian government confiscated the properties of hard working Igbos and made it their own in the name of "abandoned property". Stop deifying this benefactor of genocide.
@@donatta1857 Ken Saro Wiwa and the Ogoni people had nothing to do with your so called abandoned properties, the Ogonis activities were mainly to defend themselves against the onslaughts from all side.

Namaste'! One Love!!! Ase'!❤️🖤💚‼️
'Africa Kills His Sun"
Instead of killing him they should have helped see to developed the community. For this I ask can Africa really unite when we kill ourselves for standing for the truth.
A TRUE HERO OF THE PEOPLE!!!
REST IN POWER SOULJAH.
MORE STRENGTH TO YOUR LOVED ONES. x
He stays a true African hero. Amazing what time has done to our African leaders. Mugabe is there too, criticizing such actions only himself to betray the African revolution to his own ego. May we all win over the African struggle
Why Africa doesn't stand with their brothers who stand for the RIGHTS?
You can kill a revolutionary but you can't kill his message. According to historical evidence, revolutionary always carry the victory at the end of the day because history provide actual evidence that will eventually lead to his victory. Long live to all revolutionaries in Nigeria for ever.

Thanks, CGTN
I hope that you will now count out the Ibos amoung the 3 major groups that are causing the trouble in the area. They are also victims of the marginalization and so want to liberate themselves. IPOB is alive now to correct the wrong of many years. How I wish the Ogonis will join the struggle for liberation. No one should sit on defence in this struggle for together we will win.
Alright I'm great full with this video I just finished watching and if everyone may asked me why am great full I will just quickly say that Nigeria need to be divided according to this video I just finished watching because it pains me alot the way my country so called Nigeria is not encouraging to see as Nation because of corruptions and oppression. I Nigerian citizens vowed to let BIAFRA reign as they want.
You are the same people besides the language growup humans and become wiser.
Imagine that's why we have Covid 19 Pandemic Lockdown Quarantines 😁🤪😎 around, maybe 🍋 we will Go back to the Drawing Board and know All of us in the Whole Wide WORLD, we are the Same, ❤️ Infront of JESUS 🇲🇲 CHRIST OUR GOOD MERCIFUL SAVIOUR FATHER And KING of KINGS RESSURECTED CHRIST.

U can kill the messenger but you can't kill the message. Ur dreams must be fulfilled my hero @Ken saro wiwa
Lucky 💓🍀🌾💙💓❤️🌹🌹🌹 u who, Terminate Other Parents ❣️🎇❣️ Children?
Saro-Wiwa's one mistake was working against Biafra- the igbo people. The igbos fought a civil war to liberate themselves.
The Ogoni people aligned with Nigeria against Biafra.
The Nigerian people he supported, against igbos killed him.
Before you Persecute, kill, murder, Gossip, Hate, or have Anger or harm a Human Being?
I remembered the day he was killed and where I was, it was a sad day for Nigeria.
But current governors have had so much money and did little to nothing
Ken Saro-Wiwa saved his people. Very few stands up to the might of their government and that of West companies. It's frustrating and disheartening to see people living in such dangerous conditions and looking at their rivers contaminated to the core by oil. coming from those served pipes. The Nigerian government neglected the Ogoni people for years earning money from Shell oil companies at their expense. It's a pity Ken had to pay with his life to later get attention. At least Ogoni people are now recognised in their own Motherland Nigeria. Thanks to him and those who embraced and supported the struggles.😢😢 Long live Ken Saro-Wiwa!❤
These are the kind of spirit that we should pray to our God to wake up and spread to many that we can be royal to africanisation and think about our people before I think about myself long live these idea
Thank you for sharing this educational video about Nigeria, big oil, the Ogoni people and the life of Mr Ken Saro-Wiwa.
I believe Mr Ken was a genuine hero.
Each time I watched how Shell and Mobile.Now ExxonMobile stole our oil,I feel sick in my stomach.
Think FIRST B4 you act Carelessly.
Isaac boro park started the struggle not Ken Saro wiwa...
