Then you likely have not met Wade Cudeback on his way to Ashtabula! . Highly unlikely you have met Maren too

Essay or S.A. Soditan is Soyinka's father, the Wild Christian is his mother.

Get Ake:years of childhood, and you will meet their pleasant acquaintance

Ishilove:

Very unfortunate indeed. To think that Kongi spent a year in solitary confinement for senseless fools like them

amiibaby:
Kill all hausas and Nigeria will be a place to live

I take it that your reference to "them" means Igbos? I also take it that you are or used to be a moderator in this section of N/L? Assuming that both are correct, then it shows what a common sense burden you have been to owners of this website and the people you pretend to represent.

Kongi cut his teeth demonstrating his preference for principles over the usual plate of porridge many of you are known for. Unlike Gani Fawhemi, Tai Solarin, the Ijebu farmers association, the whole other majority of your folks lined up, plate in hand, asking and begging for some cheap porridge prepared by the same Hausa Fulanis using illicit harvest from your neighbors in the east--and boy was it delicious while it lasted.

Kongi, being a very principled man was one of the few to complained and cry out loud. He rejected the porridge for principles!
If you met Kongi in Atlanta about the time he won the prize, you'd realize that placing him inside your small bigotry Yoruba basket does the man no honors. Apparently, reading a lot of his work has not brought you any closer to a better understanding, or an improved principle of life.

Keep working on it, maybe, some day, you'll mature and have a better appreciation of his principles, and most of all, you will know that he is more like an African giant, stuffing him inside your small Yoruba pot is wrong.

Acidosis:
This is the time APC needs to fulfil the promises on State Policing. However, with the on-going NPF recruitment exercise, it is clear the party has nothing new to offer in terms of security of lives and properties.

May God deliver our officers who spend more time in beer parlours and "WEED" joints. We will manage them till 2019.

Well,i can't blame you,afterall,you guys claim that Jesus died for you and yet people like you hated him,lied on him, Mandela must have had some people he was imprisoned for insult him claiming he's stupid to put himself through that suffering. The good old prof was imprisoned for the sake of you and your unborn children,yet you're here raining insults on him

Great, maybe now he can stop making noise about IPOB touts and focus more on Fulani herdsmen in the Southwest. While Igbo governors are crying and fasting, Yoruba governors and leaders need to be more productive.
One problem I have with Soyinka is that the same Biafrans he fought for and went to jail for are the ones insulting and belittling his names on social media. When will he stop speaking in their defense?
Maybe now, he can focus his attention on Fulani herdsmen in the SW to ensure that our leaders act instead of shedding crocodile tears. I hope they visit:

1. OBJ
2. Fayose
3. Tinubu
4. Ajimobi
5. Etc

The only way to make Nigerian politicians more efficient is to attack them directly. If SW leaders can't get together in this trying time, they need to used as scapegoats.

[size=14pt]How Herdsmen Invaded Wole Soyinka’s Home[/size]


Nobel Laureate, Prof Wole Soyinka has disclosed that herdsmen invaded his home while he was abroad with the cows leaving a “motorable” path.


In an address to the National Conference on Culture and Tourism on April 27, Soyinka decried the ruthless manner with which the herdsmen have conducted their business of late.
He stressed that Nigeria’s tourism will never boom if it continues to tolerate such insecurity, noting that, culture and tourism are interdependent.

He also stated that the federal government led by President Muhammadu Buhari has not done enough to stop the onslaught of the herdsmen.

“Let me narrate a personal experience – just one among many – that was brought home to me, right against my doorstep. Before that specific happening, I had observed a change of quality in forest encounters with cattle herdsmen over the years. These changes had become sufficiently alarming for me to arrange meetings with a few governors and, later, with the late National Security Adviser General Azazi. At the time, we thought that they were Boko Haram, infiltrating into the south under the guise of cattle herding. That was then, and of course, that surmise has never been firmly proven or disproved,” he said in a press statement.

Narrating his experience, he said: “Recently, however, I returned from a trip outside the country about to find that my home ground had been invaded, and a brand-new “Appian way” sliced through my sanctuary. That ‘motorable’ path was made by the hoofed invaders. Both the improvised entry and exit are now blocked, but interested journalists are invited to visit.

“In over two decades of living in that ecological preserve, no such intrusion had ever occurred. I have no idea whether they were Fulani or Futa Jalon herdsmen but, they were cattle herders, and they had cut a crude swathe through my private grounds.

“I made enquiries and sent alerts around, including through the Baale of our neighborhood village. There has been no repeat, and hopefully, it will remain the first and last of such invasion. What it portends, however, is for all thinking citizens to reflect upon, and take concerted measures against.”
