He is already an elderly man.
Is he?
He is eighty three years old!
If we really look at his activities, he must have lived up to ten lifetimes.
Is it the mysterious gunman story we should talk about?
Is it his intervention in the Biafran crisis which earned him solitary detention for almost two years?
He has always been a nemesis of.misrule throughout the world.
He had to escape through the NADECO route on okada during the rule of the goggled one. He was subsequently sentenced to death in absentia on trumped up charges.
Before then, he had been fully involved in the June 12 struggle. He was never bothered by the death sentence. He kept on with the struggle.
He was even determined to surface in Nigeria while Abacha lived. However, the grim reaper took the dictator away.
He really, ‘….set forth at dawn’.
Happy birthday to Kongi!!!
