@Op
It's a lie that BH want to harm Prof.Soyinka. They cannot do it because they are not exactly dumb and stupid. They are very politically savvy and aware to bite the finger that potentially feeds them. The Nigeria of IBB/Abacha era is gone forever. A whole new generation/ breed of Nigerians are no longer patient and tolerant of silly behaviours of a "minority" who have managed to convince themselves that they have a monopoly of mindless violence and derring do or impunity. Nobody should loose sleep over such misguided talk or thoughts whatsoever. Nigeria does not belong to the foolish ruling elite despite IBB's thoughts about the indivisibility of Nigeria. BH is not a big deal until we began to acknowledge them as some invisible boogey man in our midst. If they have not harmed any of the so called Northern big men, why would they harm Soyinka because of mere criticism/words? Nigeria is so easy to dismantle if we really want to and BH is nowhere near such goals yet. They need Nigeria more than the rest of Nigerians(South) need them. The consequences of such a misguided action will be Swift, Fatal [/b]and [b]final for everyone wink.

Hausas/Boko haram knows very well why they should be wise not to dare bring their bomb to south west. The warning is good enough for them to recognise and so far they've have heeded these warnings. Only ibo fools who don't understand what a legitimate threat is will dance around a fire. No wonder they are killed like flies buzzing around suya by their husbands, the hausas, at the slightest provocation. To the Igbos they are trying to pit the yorubas and hausas against each other so they can withness blood bath. Shame on you because our God is not asleep and is actively watching over is children that his why the enemies are experiencing their wicked plots. Your plan to expand your eroded unclave in the east is nothing but very clear, during the june 12 crisis, when you ungrateful elements move enmasse to the east thinking and instigating the bombing of Lagos through your propagadarist chukumerije, so that you parasites can move back to Lagos and occupy if your wish come to pass. What you fail to understand is we are tired of your occupying yoruba land, because of your naivity you seem not to know that if anything happen to Soyinka today neither Hausa nor Igbos are safe. So I encourage you in your foolishness continue to fan the ember of war to your own peril. Your very weapon you're fashioning against Yorubas, while they wish you well, shall become what will be used against you in the end. Unrepetant, Hausa victims take note.

"****Perhaps Soyinka’s—and Nigeria’s—problem lies in the fact that the Nobel Laureate considers himself an intellectual whose word the world looks forward to. And he is not. True intellectualism is not the mere fact of having been to school or teaching in one. It is all about being conscious, sensitive and aware of the circumstance and of one’s role in it and one’s readiness to sacrifice and suffer to make it better.

You are either born an intellectual or you are not: it is an attitude that cannot be learnt; because education and experience only help to refine and sharpen an already existing predisposition—being analytical, being objective and being truly concerned. While some intellectuals choose only to expose a bad situation, others, in addition, fight to change it; and of these, those that succeed are those unencumbered by prejudice of the kind that Soyinka has always exhibited.*****"
