Segun Sango on a speaking tour
Segun is the general secretary of our Nigerian sister party, the
Democratic Socialist Movement (DSM – the CWI in Nigeria).
Segun is also chair of the National Conscience Party, (NCP) in Nigeria’s
capital city Lagos. The National Conscience Party is a mass workers’ party
in Nigeria that we are part of.
The Democratic Socialist Movement has played a leading role in the trade
union led struggle against the government imposed fuel price increases,
through the Campaign for Democratic and Workers’ Rights in Nigeria (CDWRN)
which has defeated the Nigerian government on this dispute through a number
of strikes.
Segun has been prominent in this campaign.
This has been an essential development of our work in Nigeria, where our
party has had an influence in Nigerian politics, shaking the whole
establishment.
