ishowdotgmail: If you a youngman can call someone of the age of your grandfather a slowpoke. Let me tell you that your own grand children will use a worse language to describe you when you become old. I find it completely indigestible when men and women hiding behind anonymity, will throw away our values by insulting elders. For the record I have never met Wole Soyinka as a person, he's from SW and am from political North Central. I find it very irritating they way people write rubbish about the man. It is on record that he was jailed during the civil war by Nigerian Government for taking side with people the FG was fighting. We also now how this man's life was threatened by military for his role in NADECO etc all the victories that has contributed to our freedom of speech/expression today. I think this man deserves all our support at his old age instead of making him regret his life of sacrifice. If we don't hasten to correct this error, we should not be surprise if the best of our brains continue to abandon us when it matters. 2 Likes |

No man is above being criticized or his words been reexamined after they are uttered. If you don't want to be a victim of criticism then never utter a word or better still seize from existing. Afterall he lived his whole life criticising people and government alike. I seriously see this whole noise from Soyinka as oldage talks, he sure can't help it. Who him epp? How much him or him foundation de add to our GDP? E want make we beg am Abi make we cry? Abeg remove your family house carry am go too |

Hmmm, the way the cookie crumbles. You can run but can't hide. Nomadic instincts have you infected. Really who gives a hoot if you are erased or disappear. Your insulting outbursts to Nigeria and the dark race confirms you are an unworthy shameless old man who only qualifies to go flush himself down the loo. You are all the adjectives you uttered personified. Only one who is cursed abuses and disrespect his people and source with your language. You're undoubtedly a laughing stock worldwide, that is for those who even recognize your existence. I doubt if majority of America populace know you. As negative as your green card comment was, did America comment? Your popularity fast becoming notoriety with your reactions is errant nonsense. You deserve all the comments received. Good thing too your true despicable nature is daily revealed. Your insults confirms your essence. Does a squeezed tomato release orange juice? No because that's not it's essence. No matter what, you owe Nigeria, the dark race a huge apology with your name calling insults. Pray they accept it. With your tongue you are fast making the rest of your life a ridicule and will mostly be remembered in that light when gone. Now you made yourself a spectacle of rubbish. Whose champion are you anyway? Self delusion! Mr Wole is your sheer ego, arrogance worth rendering that which you built through the years? You have done irreparable damage with your insults to your people, your source, your orisun, and unworthy of pardon. Unfortunately I strongly doubt if it's redeemable. That's the door... Wole....jade. Good riddance to bullshit! 1 Like |

thunder74: LOL, the man virtually spent most of his political life criticising everyone and anyone at will and yet can't stand criticism himself and consequently questioning the right to freedom of speech (he cherishes for himself) of any Nigerian to criticise him likewise - what an arrogant megalomaniac; so what if he decides to exit, in fact nobody will miss him; his poems don't even rhyme. 1 Like |

Re: Soyinka Threatens To Exit Nigeria by blackprowler: 10:27am On Dec 06, 2016 |
SOYINKA has not done one thing for the betterment of this country. It's only about his own benefit and egomaina. The problem is with Nigerians who put fools like Soyinka, Chinua Achebe and now Chimamanda on a pedestal. As a scientist, I really hate these people because they haven't produced a grain of rice or garri to feed the nation. They only sir up controversies from their opulence abroad. We are such a DUMB people and I can't contain my frustration with these imbeciles, as Soyinka rightly called them. THE PROBLEM WITH NIGERIA IS THE NIGERIAN PEOPLE THEMSELVES! |

Re: Soyinka Threatens To Exit Nigeria by blueskies(f): 10:30am On Dec 06, 2016 |
SIRmanjar:. How asertive are you all in question of him not havin torn his green card? And I think I sighted a post a few weeks back dat confirmed he did. And even if he didn't, he's a human rights activist and may av made that statement ironically in defense of some people. One doesnt alwys talk with both sides of d mouth. Let's stop unnecessary criticism, there'r way more crucial issues that shd b criticised. Issues eating deep in dis nation and d society dat can affect our future and those comin behind us. He's an achiever so pple pay attention to evry detail he says whether its of importance or not, let's also bcom achievers so we can b recognised |

PLS DIS WOLE SOYINKA IS SOMETHINGELSE These great leaders are spoiling their names after they've made a great one first it was pmb he has thrown d country into recession after making a good name for himself. if only he had not being d president we would think he would do great things and now the well know prof. he's getting angry over comments on social media at least both of them are old enough to have heard this wise saying: if do alot of good all your life and a little bad at the end it will ruin everyhing you've built. evil destroys things alot. they need to redeem theirselves. anyway on issue at hand he can leave o he does not take of my needs and freedom of speech is really. are nigerians voice really heard?are we even listened to ? he might have fought for freedom of speech but like most laws in nigeria, they are not applied. nigerians are not afraid to talk but wen u talk and nothing is being done about it and things only gets worse what do u do? pls we should all do d bit we can |

pressplay411: You are very funny as well as a tribalist.. Soyinka erred by uttering the nonsense he is currently saying and it is unbecoming of a professor of high esteem like him.... If he was from by tribe I would still criticize him.. . Any Nigerian can insult him now coz he is insulting 120million Nigerians as it is... He should put his ego under the bed coz I don't care a hoot about his fucking ass and crazy books anymore.. |
