Sowore and the semantics of revolution Nigerians FreeSowore RevolutionNow

If the practice of democracy is viewed as an extended conversation involving citizens and government on the one hand, and between competing non-governmental stakeholders on the other, then there is a wide room for all manner of expressions including revolutions launched on laptops and public address systems.

True, one or two of them, especially that touching on security jitters, are serious with new dimensions being introduced by the day; it is doubtful however whether the implementation of these limited reforms, important as they are, can be called a revolution, which connotes a fundamental political and socio-economic change.

This columnist does not imply that the demographic bulge is the only problem out there; there are existential issues such as worsening poverty, shrinking job market, degradation in education, health and other social services, all in the midst of successive groups of politicians promising change, only to backslide on their promises or give excuses for their lack of performance.
