GeneralOjukwu: ![]() I concur... Just do the same research on Chinua Achebe. Then you'd understand the word 'genius'. Soyinka is good, but he doesn't measure up with Chinua Achebe. Only that he is a writer as well. 1 Like |

NwaAmaikpe:You all know Achebe deserves Nobel Prize but they did not give him abi. E be like say little blood don enter part of your brain. You can create thread for reason Achebe deserves it and not Soyinka with good fact. Let engage in the debate on the thread. 10 Likes |

Re: Wole Soyinka Celebrates His 83rd Birthday Today by GeneralOjukwu: 8:19am On Jul 13, 2017 |
NwaAmaikpe: I actually did this research on Achebe, Ojukwu and Soyinka. This is how I rate them : 1. Soyinka 2. Ojukwu 3. Achebe in descending order in terms of eloquence and thought process. Would read more Achebe books to form an opinion about literal ability. Maybe I don't like poetry but I wasn't impressed by The Lion and the Jewel of Soyinka. Ake however was a great read. 5 Likes |

czaratwork: You think I have your time ![]() Unlike you I got thousands of work to do. I just felt like commenting today and I know thousands of tribalist kids like you are on nairaland. What you fail to understand is life on nairaland is not same on real life as you can get help, favour or best friend from any tribe.......your reasoning here on nairaland is always naive and tribalistic. Unfortunatly seun is not paying the mods enough to do something about it. Goto QUORA.COM and you see the difference in comments. Finally your a fake prophet as am Igbo. Specifically Anambara state. 7 Likes |

ismokeweed: Seriously? Guy, Nigerians with their penchant for evil turned what is normal and good and made it diabolical. Fraternities are meant to be something of pride in normal societies but not in Nigeria. Soyinka thought he was dealing with sane human beings when he introduced it not knowing Nigerians would twist it. 4 Likes |
