Prof Wole Soyinka really fell my hand. He just lost the global respect he once enjoyed out of his senseless criticism of a man that did him no wrong. His tribal bigotry got exposed and magnified by the effects of old age, so sad cos I so much adored and respected Prof Wole Soyinka before now cry


That is why it is always good to leave the stage when the ovation is high. Prof Wole Soyinka misfired big time.

Peter Obi matter will expose a lot of people

Wole Soyinka professorship is really questionable because I have perused all logical explanations to know how he arrived at the conclusion that Peter Obi is not qualified to contest the 2027 elections but I cannot find any.
There might just be two answers just as the professor suggested.it is either for monetary gains or he has degenerated into a tribal bigot

There is no professor dead or alive that is at the same level with Professor Wole Soyinka. He is Nigeria's first Nobel Laureate, and there is no other one.

Just as the Prof said in the video

Wole Soyinka, you and your ilks are still living in the past. Speaking English of the 1950's and 60's. It's no longer relevant

Your biological father too is a Nigerian, bring him out and list his life achievements here.
My father was just a mere civil servant who served Nigerian ministry diligently and with every atom of integrity and even resisted temptations to loot government funds which was why he didn't become as rich and notorious as your drug kingpin master.


As for Prof Wole Soyinka, he is a great achiever, of course he achieved greater things than my civil servant father and I celebrate Soyinka for that but when it comes to his recent meddling in Nigerian politics, Prof Wole Soyinka messed himself up and destroyed decades of the respect he gained and enjoyed within and outside Nigeria.

Someone who fought dictators to a standstill. Soyinka's place is solid and secured. He cannot be erased by little ants calling themselves Obidients. What a joke.

Having a Nobel prize does not make you the best in anyway.
You just showed how shallow you are.shoyinka has a Nobel price in Literature but he is better than professor Nnaji in robotics engineering? Or Femi Falana in law?

Being a useless Nobel laureate doesn't mean the f贸olish prof cum cultist is infallible. Check many other Nobel laureate winners if they're as f贸olish as this id卯otic prof. He's the most f酶olish and the most unrecognized. He's only being known in his Yoruba tribe. Non of his work is even popular. Sometimes I wonder how that f贸ol won Nobel laureate with his boring writings.

Even though I don't necessarily understand what Prof Wole Soyinka has to do with the obidient movement, I understand Prof Wole's sentiment about the handlers of the obidient movement.

They are a group of people who can't handle criticism, even when the main activity of the group is centered around criticizing others.

They will insult everyone criticizing them rather than see it as an opportunity to convince the person.

Imagine the governorship candidate of Labor party saying he doesn't think in Yoruba and calling the Oro festival a barbaric act.

Soyinka is known worldwide, you don't get the Nobel prize by being an obscure writer.
He is a giant within and outside of Nigeria. Obidients wouldn't have been writhing in pain if Soyinka's comments were made by another person.

Soyinka destroyed himself ever since he went to PH City and joined Amaechi in a 88m naira dinner party with oloshos in 2014 since then Soyinka have been eating from the tables of drug lord and certificate forgers.No body takes him serious anymore.

That is why English language have an adage that says "living in your past glory".


Prof Wole Soyinka did exploit based on the time of his youth and trend of events at that time, but he has become completely irrelevant in today's events and now living in his past glory. He ought to have left the stage when the ovation was high for him.


I write too just like Prof Wole Soyinka and in fact, my writings have been published in international platforms and gained wide audience, I also have books on sale and will soon become a PhD holder like Prof Wole Soyinka and if God keeps me alive, I will also become a Professor like Soyinka, so I see no reason why his criticism should even be taken serious if not for bigotry. What does Soyinka a 90yr old man know about today's events and current desire of the youths? He failed in all his youthful attempts to correct Nigerian dictators, little did the world know that he was only fighting for power to go to his preferred corrupt civilians so that he can have unfettered access to government funds and contracts.


What makes Wole Soyinka's criticisms of Obi more ridiculous is the fact that he agrees that Peter Obi is a man of impeccable character but his only anger is that Peter Obi's supporters are incompetent as if Peter Obi's supporters will be governing Nigeria from Aso Rock with Obi should he become President. The same stupid opinion that useless Reno Omockery have about Obi. None of them is saying Peter Obi is bad or corrupt or anything, their only problem is Peter Obi's youth support base that is not agreeing with their old way of cash and carry politics of highest bidder.


More funny is the fact that Prof Wole Soyinka support Bola Tinubu whose supporters kill, burn and destroy properties and even fought opposition voters from voting, but they are excellent supporters to Wole Soyinka but Peter Obi's supporters who only respond to critics online are the dangerous supporters not Bola Tinubu or Buhari's supporters who kill people, burn houses, cars, etc, and you say all is well with Prof Wole Soyinka's mental state?

So, Soyinka was a young man when he was fighting Abacha dictatorship?
In his 20s he went to prison for defending Biafra right to secede and many others too numerous to mention here.
Is Soyinka the only Nigerian to a be professor? Soyinka's achievements are not limited to his academic brilliance which on its own is staggering.
Please don't try to compare yourself to him just because you will soon hold a PHD, Soyinka is more than that, he is a veteran of many battles for the soul of the country.
I laugh at the baby fascists who thinks they can erase him. Goodluck with that, even at 90 they can't take him on and not get bruised.

Oga Soyinka is never a tribal bigot and can never be a tribal bigot.
His past activism have proven that he is not a tribal bigot, but the corrupt system of any nation has away of rubbing off on the character of very few decent people either through wilful patronage of the corrupt leaders or by economic negative impact of the decent people in the system.
therefore Oga Soyinka has paid his dues , and deserve our respect, though he is never an infallible human, hence he has his own fault- lines.
