TWO groups, the Oodua Republic Front (ORF) and the Apapo Oodua Koya (AOKOYA) have warned the Boko Haram insurgent group against any attack on Nobel Laureate Prof Wole Soyinka.
ORF said it would retaliate any attack on him, any other Yoruba man or woman or territory.
It described Soyinka as a great source of pride to the Yoruba race and world civilisation, adding that in case of any attempted or manifest attack on him or any Youruba son and daughter, “we will carry out retailiatory attacks on all sympathisers of Boko Haram”.
In a statement by its spokesman, Jubril Ogundimu, the group said: “We view the threat against Soyinka as an assault on the Yoruba people. This fatwa passed on Soyinka is a declaration of war on the Yoruba people.
“We shall retaliate with equal measure of response if any Yoruba person or territory is attacked by Boko Haram. We see Boko Haram as a front for the Hausa-Fulani caliphate. We shall hold the Hausa-Fulani caliphate responsible for any attack on Soyinka.”
AOKOYA, in a statement by its deputy spokesperson, Alhaja (Mrs) Medinat Oluwaseyi, said: “We warn today that any attack on Professor Wole Soyinka will lead to spontaneous reactions from the Yoruba nation. We shall respond with a double measure of rage. We will not tolerate a deliberate attempt at eliminating Yoruba scholars and icons by a brutal gang of murderers that takes delight in spilling human blood for game. We caution that an attack on Soyinka will lead to violent reprisals targeting Hausa-Fulani, from the Yoruba nation.”
The group added:“We are concerned that Boko Haram has not denied this threat to kill one of mankind’s most consistent advocates for justice.

Those who know Boko Haram had better make sure they get this warning 

This sounds like boko haram faction in the sw.

BlackPikiN:

What Boko haram faction in the SW?

Personally I don't want any harm to befall Prof Wole Soyinka. He is indeed of one Africa shining light. It will be a very great tragedy should Boko Haram hurt him.

Boko Haram better steer clear from him!

This is it!!! Atleast, they did cower or re-coil to their refugee camps. Time to re-start the old testament era "an EYE must go with thousand eyes".
After retailiation, then comes ejection of parasites.

      Everybody must answer im papa name.

boko was only throwing sphagetti on the wall to see if it will stick. They probably think they are the only muslims that Quran told to wage a Jihad.

You two are very stu-pid for making nonsensical comments about yorubas.What did ibos do when boko haram were killing your folks in yobe and bornu ? Fools like you only cry and whine;protest and in the end,y'all bury your dead folks and life goes on.Yorbas have challenged boko haram and if nothing happens after they carried out their threat on soyinka,come back here and call them buffons. As for now,their promise stands afterall no be today we dey retaliate in Lagos and other SWNER states.

believe me, you sure don't wanna start with me, for your own good .

In sabo in Shagamu when hausas started a rift with the yorubas. . .take a quick bus to shagamu now to find out how bloody yorubas can be when they are sitting on their own and you come to ask for trouble. . .

Also in sabo in lagos years ago when hausas started a rift, they will never forget how the alapatas (meat sellers) slaughtered them terribly. . .it was more than the hausas bargained for.

Its not everyday the OPCs make a threat but when they do. . .

na today?? Grin ;Daverage Yoruba man's mouth making, when time for action comes they will all scamper into their various holes. Cool Cool.lol,

Yorubas are not mouth makers.

They fought the hausas in Kaduna in 2002. I was in Kaduna then.

It is the Igbos that are the chicken cowards. Despite boko-haram murdering them in a town hall meeting last year. Igbo governors came out to deny their own people publicly that it is not Igbo they are killing. Igbo politicians are making the world believe that Igbos are not being killed by boko-haram.

There is an adage in Yoruba that says: "If you plant a single yam and claim you planted 200 yams, when its harvest season, you will harvest your 200 yams alone".

OPC public demonstrated courageously in Lagos with guns and no police confronted them. Igbo leader in lagos was ranting garbage that OPC should not disrupt the peace of Lagos, that Lagos does not belongs to Yorubas alone.

Go and tell hausas that Kano does not belong to them.

OPC has demonstrated with courage, at least. What has brave Igbo done.

Except make mouth ?

Yorubas determine the fate of Nigeria.

Igbos are just the cowards. They have threatening boko-haram since all these days. AT least Yoruba has done something.

Massob cant even demonstrate publicly without the police not shooting them. Because they know they are cowards.

Nothing go happen to wole soyinka, all those talks and trelt re just speculations, Yoruba people can fear sha, they non get liver?

Yorubas has no liver, but Igbos are chickens.

They are killing them everyday yet, they are suffering and smiling.

No, it is not Igbos they are killing.

nothing go happen to d prof. boko haram just dey make empty threat. all dey wanna do is make d prof to keep looking over his shoulders and tone down his criticism on the sect.

Hausa should be careful because Ibadan, Lagos will start attack, We will never fold arm and be looking like Ibo mumu, 1 millions Ibo already died in last 3 years and are kill by  Hausa in the name of Boko-A-Ram, I am disappointed in Ibo,if Hausa attack Soyinka in the name of Boko is a A ram, we will kills 5 millions Hausa in reprisal attack

@ Waxrider, you missed it. Its not Igbos the Boko-Knights are killing. Mind you those they killed are Yanmirins.      

@only-rebel,

@ Waxrider, you missed it. Its not Igbos the Boko-Knights are killing. Mind you those they killed are Yanmirin.

It's also precautionary for yorubas to be at alert in case of anything.We know where to invade if anything happens to soyinka even some other ethnics sef will feel the heat.

@ Rhino.4dm
I have been following your posts and comments in nairaland and i am beginning to suspect that you must be a pig under the guise of human being. You stink like public toilet. Get the bleeped out of this forum!

----and what did entire ibos do when Boko-Haram slaughtered hundreds of ibos like chicken?

I dey laff reading these posts. Have you ever heard of the "wild wild west" in the history of Nigeria? you really need to find out bro, see my people don't just fight because they have acute sense of judgement on issues, but when they do it can only be imagined the destruction that follows. Doubt if you were in Lagos during the OPC/Hausa melee in Lagos maybe you'll have a better impression of the people you call cowards. I pray nothing happens to Soyinka.

whatever de heck is it, let nothing happen 2 Soyinka dis 1 every1 is dangling him as a war bait.
