Dele Giwa.
Even as the military administration of General Ibrahim Babangida came to an end, more and more revelations came to the fore. Many of the things Nigerians secretly talked about in the privacy of their bedrooms were now being openly discussed on the pages of newspapers and magazines. I still remember the interview TELL magazine conducted with a certain Edmund Ikechukwu Onyeama, a former operative at the Directorate of Military Intelligence, who told it
all. He held nothing back. I still remember the interview with Dele Giwa's mother, the late Elekia Giwa headlined ''BABANGIDA KILLED MY SON''. Yes, we all knew that, didn't we? But now it was it was in the open.

27 years after the murder of Dele Giwa by parcel bomb, his killers are yet to be brought to justice. Is it that justice is not for the rich and powerful?
