Description
A study of the significance of the execution of dissident writer Ken Saro-Wiwa and eight other activists to Nigeria's global reputation. Soyinka criticises what he sees as the decline of Nigeria from a post-colonial success story to a military dictatorship marked by the executions. He then considers Nigeria's future.
