'I have almost 200 people reporting for me all over Nigeria'

He hit the nation’s consciousness, and headlines, with his fiery activism when he led the Students Union Government of the University of Lagos, Akoka, between 1992 and 1994. Since that baptism of fire, which peaked with the relentless national and global agitation for the revalidation of the June 12, 1993 presidential vote, won by the late Bashorun M. K. O Abiola, Omoyele Sowore never looked back. While most of his colleagues chose the glittering broad way of life, the Ondo State-born activist voted for the narrow way. He voted for a path strewn with thorns and boulders. He chose a Spartan life, a life of vigorous and sometimes aggressive action in pursuing happiness and wellness of the greatest number of the people.

For his efforts, he got arrested and detained in various jailhouses eight times. He almost died in Abacha’s gulag. But he never buckled. Rather, the torture and excruciating pains of incarceration toughened him so much they became like narcotics needed to spur him to higher and more demanding levels of activism. Finally, he left Nigeria for America, not for the much-vaunted American dream but to search for channels and opportunities that would further equip him in the struggle for a better Nigeria. In the process, he founded the popular social media network, Sahara Reporters, which has become the biggest and the most popular platform for citizens’ journalism for Nigerians wherever they may be on the globe. In its short span of existence, saharareporters.com has become what some people appropriately label the Wikileak of Africa.

I met Omoyele Sowore, 40, in New York, in the evening of September 5, 2010, where we both participated in a roundtable on the 2011 Nigerian general elections, alongside other speakers. After the event, organised by the Global Information Network, GIN, a non-profit organisation led by Ms. Lisa Vives, an American, Sowore, who moderated at the event, suggested we meet the next evening at a restaurant somewhere on Fulton Street, in Brooklyn, for a drink. That was where I sold the idea of an interview to him. He obliged.
