chronique: If only soyinka would just step aside and think things properly. How on earth will a 79yrs old man be seen exchanging words in public with a "woman"(not man) in her 50s? That's like a father throwing words around in public with his daughter. Even if he means well and wants to correct her,why call the wife of a sitting president by the name of an animal? Does he not realise he's actually insulting the president that way? Is this the best way to go about correcting a person? An elder who doesn't want his white lace soiled,should not be seen playing soccer with kids in mud sand. Truly,the bible rightly puts it: "the age of a methusela has nothing to do with his wisdom". This is just the perfect scenario to explain this. I'm seriously disappointed in this man. Never knew he could debase himself to this extent. So sad.

dayokanu: Well said Wole Soyinka. You have always stood for the truth

Whether its to fight for Biafra and end up in jail

Whether its to be the negotiator for MEND

Whether its to lead protest against the cabal to make Retardeen Jonathan president

You even supported the appointment of Patience Retardeen the Shepopotamus as Special adviser.

Now its left to Retardeen to put a leash on the SHEPOPOTAMUS

Once again well said Kongi

slap1: She popo is for the wife, while he popo is the husband. . .both are of the hippopotamus family.

ngozievergreen:

who the hell knows what this miscreant is talking about?

Ojukwu married only once. Bianca!

Oh yes, i know he has two children before then.

It is documented everywhere, Ojukwu wedded once. To A woman that sacrificed her crown and pageantry dream for him. And stood with him till death..

But despite the Soyinka's supposed nobel, the 3 women couldnt bear his mundane stance. Including the concubines.

My point is, remove ojukwu from your wishful thinking

First son of late Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Mr. Debe
Odumegwu-Ojukwu, on Sunday told that Teny Harman was his
late father's a biological daughter.

Debe, who spoke to our correspondent in Enugu, said there was no
reason to question the paternity of Herman, as he (Debe) had
always known about her.

He said, “That is his daughter, I knew about her; my father told me
himself. The old man told me that Teny Herman was his daughter.
I am his biggest and closest confidant; so there were so many
things he laid bare to me which he never told others.”
Debe, also known as Sylvester, revealed that Teny Herman's
mother was a Northerner.

“Her mother is from the North - Kaduna State precisely but I am
not so sure of her first name now,” he said.

Ojukwu married altogether four wives, one at a time. He
married his first wife Elizabeth Okoli from Awka town in
Anambra State, in 1957, but she did not have a child.
Following their divorce, he married his second wife, Njideka
Onyekwelu, from Nawfia, Anambra State in 1964. They had
three children: Emeka Jnr, Mimi and Okigbo. Ojukwu married
his third wife, Stella Onyeador from Arochukwu in Abia State,
and they divorced later in the 1980s. In 1989, he married his
fourth wife and widow Bianca Onoh from Udi. They have
three children.

Seems Soyinka now has a penchant for uncouth languages...even if you want to correct someone and in doing that you lace insults on the person naturally the person will become infuriated and would never listen to whatever you have to say...

Our dear soyinka there is something called COMMON SENSE...seek it and apply it or risk further insults from people who on a normal day would not dare exchanging words with you..

Burger01:



Howdy bro? Trust you're doing good.

5columnist:
Metaphor that translates to what? Enough of this nonsense. I see you are definitely entertained and have found name calling directed at PEJ a new source of amusement.

ngozievergreen:

To A woman that sacrificed her crown and pageantry dream for him.

pheyikemi: that's d only part ur eyes would see. Why not read d corrective parts nd learn frm it too. No wonder Nig is still d way it is wiv pple like u.

Babzilla: U KNOW
ITS KINDA HARD UNDERSTANDING THE MAD PROF THESE DAYS
MAYBE ITS COS HE GOT A MOUTH FULL OF NUTS
AMAECHI'S NUTS

akpomeme: Lol but no lol. He keeps making my point that he is a chauvinist. He can't even see it because that is the world he knows.

Ameachi and Soyinka are members of same cult so that explains why he will continually stand with him.

omar22:

You mean the crown Ben Bruce helped rigged? please give us a break

ACM10: This foolish professor will never respect his age and accomplishments. Aint he ashamed that he is trading words with a lady? No wonder why his three marriages crashed.

Dollarjunkie:

You are so foolish to type the above gibberish.
And how has been Nigeria with people like you??
Why will he not see that part or is it not part of what the man said??
If we should keep ignoring mistakes where we see them, Wole should as well not see what PEJ did in PH.
I hate seeing this kind of your sentimental comment, it pisses me off!
Like you've done anything or have the brain to do something that will change the country.
Again, with people like you, where is Nigeria??
Or ain't you a Nigerian?
IMAO (In My Arrogant Opinion)

It has always been difficult to interpret Soyinka. Well, Nigerians are always asking leaders to stand up for the truth, and when they see a few standing up, they lash at them! I will never support abuses, I am just praying that Nigeria would be better after all these!

I was once on a 50 minute flight that ended up taking 150 minutes because of so called 'VIP' movement. There was rain and thundestorm all over that day, but the 'VIP' would not care. Today, Lagosians have learnt to stay at home and not venture to go out to do business whenever Dame Patience visits Lagos! Fashola once asked Dame to apologize to Lagosians for the horror that Lagosians faced when she came to say hello to her friends in Lagos. Rather than apologize, they barked at Fashola for daring to speak to 'her her excellency', 'her eminence'!

Hippo is a metaphor indeed for backward thinking and 'fossil' behaviour. Nigeria is a nation not an empire. Empires were ruled by people with hippo behavour, but in a nation we need civility in leadership. We must change. Our leaders must change. This is 2013. That you are the wife of an elected president does not make you an empress! let us all learn civility, and indeed we should not abuse or beat anyone.

Bipi went to Abuja to say he is 'speaker'. Is that not a hippo behavoiur? Chanting war and occultic songs in the house, is that not a hippo behaviour? Carving a fake mace, and using it to hold illegal house session, all with the backing of 'Abuja', is that not a hippo behaviour? Could the 'hippo' have acted in that manner without the support and backing of the 'sheppo'?
