Its a pity Saro Wiwa woke up too late.If he had known he could have supported Biafra struggle which was meant exactly to fulfil his dream many years ago.he erroneously supported the enemy side and the same latter killed him.Anyway his support could not assured victory in the face of overwhelming world power arsenals, but he could have stood out as freedom fighter b4 now.
