Dear Ayo:
Please share with your list.

Kenneth Harrow is correct. We owe much to the moral courage of many individuals, some insufficiently known.
I am touched by his reference to Cameroon as well as Nigeria. Just published is a book, edited by Modeste Mba Talla and entitled "Remember Um Nyobe" - on the martyred leader of Cameroon's independence movement (I wrote the preface). An English version will follow the original French.
Telling the story of "collective courage", spurred by the "courage and integrity" of individuals, is essential to finding pathways from distress. What bravery and resilience is being shown by democracy activists in Sudan today, as in Nigeria during the military era!
Best wishes for 2022,
Richardson
