Prof Tukur Baba’s emergence as spokesperson for the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) will make news on two key grounds. First ground is the how crisis communications is, like many other realms in Nigeria, in a state of mess. The second is the emergence of a radical as spokesperson for an organization generally but erroneously regarded as conservative. The ACF is erroneously regarded as a conservative platform because no object has an inherently radical or conservative meaning. All meanings are dependent on what is at stake at a particular time and space. That’s why a rogue can do something profoundly radical just as a man of God or a even a communist can do something profoundly conservative. Investing anybody or anything with a radical or conservative identity on a permanent basis is thus part of our Cartesian heritage which we have so thoroughly internalised as to remain lost in its radius.
