*WE ALL STAND BEFORE HISTORY*. (CURLED FROM KENULE BEESON SARO-WIWAS CLOSING STATEMENT TO THE MILITARY-APPOINTED TRIBUNAL, THAT ORDERED HIS EXECUTION. ALONG WITH NINE OTHER OGONI LEADERS ON A SPURIOUS CHARGES IN NOVEMBER 10,1995, UNDER ABACHAS REGIME). We all stand before history. I am a man of peace, of ideas. We all stand on trial, my lord for by our actions we have denigrated our country and jeopardized the future of our children. As we subscribe to the sub-normal and accept double standards, as we lie and cheat openly, as we protect injustice and oppression. We empty our classrooms, denigrate our hospitals, fill our stomachs with hunger and elect to makes ourselves the slave of those who ascribe to higher standards, pursue the truth, and honour justice, freedom and hardwork. I predict that the scene here will be played and replayed by generations yet unborn. Some have already cast themselves in the role of villians, some are tragic victims, some still have a choice to redeem themselves. The choice is for each individual. #irespectsaro-wiwasheartandthought. A great mentor..
