THE DANGER INHERENT IN THE PRESENT MOMENT: THE LEFT AND THE NIGERIA QUESTION

The present moment is a very dicey one, characterised by systemic crisis, of such proportions that it seems to have engendered a situation of permanent crises – a crisis of rampant excruciating poverty, a crisis of rampaging endemic insecurity, and a crisis of near catastrophic degradation of human life; all of which pose an existential threat to the working peoples of our part of the world.
