Brave warrior of words, your voice
inspired, empowered, inflamed.
‘Rise up in peaceful protest till
Ogoni is restored.’
Incarceration couldn’t crush
you – execution tried.
Ideas cannot be put to death
though; words cannot be chained.
Ken Saro-Wiwa’s legacy:
advancement of the cause –
Ogoni’s song now resonates
across the watching world.
