Celebrating Eddie Madunagu: International revolutionary at 75
On
By Owei Lakemfa
Many in my generation first encountered the name Eddie Madunagu when we started actively reading newspapers. He was a passionate Nigerian the Gowon regime threw into jail from January to May 1975 for fighting to end military rule and injustice and enthroning a Nigeria free of exploitation, poverty and want. In fact, I was to learn in later years that a major left political organisation he established with some other radicals at this period was called the Anti-Poverty Movement of Nigeria, APMON. This organisation carried out vigorous mobilisation amongst farmers and the urban poor and was active in the trade unions.
