THE MAN "KEN" WAS A LEGENDARY AND ACTOR OF TRANSFORMATION

Ken Saro-Wiwa was born at Bori Ogoni on the 10th October, 1941. He took a scholarship to Government College, Umuahia and Studied at the University of Ibadan where he was a University scholar, graduated in 1965.

He taught at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka and at the University of Lagos. In 1967 he was appointed Administrator for Bonny and in 1973, he set up business and became a writer, publisher and television producer. His long-running television comedy series, BASI and COMPANY received praise in Nigeria and overseas and he has published twenty-six (26) books in all genres of Literature. He is Africa's most prolific writer and one time commissioner of Education Rivers State at age 24.

He has traveled extensively in various parts of the world and was the president of Association of Nigerian Authors and of the Ethnic Minority Rights Organization Africa (EMIROAF).

In 1992, he was honoured with the Ogoni National Merit Award but unfortunately, gruesomely killed by Nigeria Government on the 10th of November, 1995 for a crime he did not commit even when the period of clemency has not elapsed and pleas from the international Community was ignored.

Ken Saro-Wiwa led Mass protests against oil pollution in Ogoni land, the protests were seen as a major threat to then-military ruler Gen Sani Abacha and oil giant Shell.

Nigeria's then-military regime sparked global outrage after convicting Ken Saro-Wiwa of murdered and hanging him.

The West African state's main human rights body said his trial was "deeply flawed", and he should be pardoned but was ignored.

Ken Saro-Wiwa and eight other activists from Ogoni were hanged after a secret trial which saw them being convicted of murdering four traditional leaders, they denied the charge and said they were framed.

The executions led to Nigeria's temporary suspension from the Commonwealth.
