EARLY WRITINGS (1987 - 1990s)

During the 1980s, I began to regularly make contributions on several aspects of contemporary national and international relations to the NIGERIAN HERALD newspapers in Ilorin. These early writings were very much within the polemical traditions of Marxism-Leninism. I had been very active in the Nigerian Marxist-Leninist Movement from the late 1970s, and that also became the basis of my active involvement in the Nigerian trade union movement, as well as the progressive Nigerian students movement.
