what do you expect from someone who works for Tinubu and one who is the editor for the most rretarded and disorganized newspaper in Nigeria. This was the same person that wrote against mama HIV awolowo for calling Tinubu a fraudster he is. For the fact that this fool called the Nobel prize the preeminent prize in literature shows that he lacks any basic knowledge and information in the field and may well be another certificate forger like his master Tinubu. Well Mr. Sam your grandmother may be a good storyteller but while she died in obscurity and irrelevancy like you will, Achebe sold multi million copies of his stories, more than any African. Dined with world leaders with his stories, had his stories told in major languages in the world, had his stories become part of school curricula world over. Stay here and be feeding crumbs from Tinubu your pay master. 90 Likes |

Back to topic... This is a good dissection of the man's weak and low grade body of work and relevance . The Nobel people saw his work and rightfully ignored everything. Obviously, his bitter, angry, divisive and tribalistic ways caught up to him.. 12 Likes |

Mr. Globe: Damn!!! Why is Tinubu always you clowns first line of defense? You clowns are so pathetic it's unbelievable? We are talking about Sam and this clown went on a rampage blowing Tinubu's name non stop? I bet you see Tinubu in your dreams? I bet you'd love to make love to Tinubu. I bet Tinubu's love is shacking you like crazy, I bet you can't get him out of your mind. This is so gayish I swear. lmao 22 Likes |

Eko Ile:haha, make love to Tinubu. If he appears in any of my dreams, am booking an early morning appointment with my pastor the day. wait until I upload his dirty face. Don't worry, nobody is sharing Tinubu with you. go on with what you do best, feasting on his balls. Tinubu gave us a retard like Sam, gave him the opportunity to write thrash like this to please him so he has to answer for that. 28 Likes |

Mr. Globe: Who are you fooling? If I say good morning to you, na Tinubu's name you go shout back like robot. Obviously, the man's name means a lot to you Even in unrelated topics, it's still Tinubu's name you shout like hallelujah. You are not even talking about the writer gan sef, instead it's the same obsession with Tinubu. Is the article about Tinubu? It's even sad and pathetic that you keep and look at his pictures for your pleasure....SMH. Your undying love and affection for the man is just too obvious.. 14 Likes |

Sam Omatseye is a classic example of people who write long essays with many paragraphs almost entirely filled with cráp. I used to read his articles back when he was with The Sun but since his move to The Nation, I've been quite unimpressed by most of his articles I've come across to the point that I sometimes don't even bother reading them at all. This is absolute rubbish. Same way he wrote nonsense criticizing Mama HID & Tribune last year or so. insulting people isn't always a sign of fearlessness, it's sometimes a sign of stu.pi.dity, ENVY, absolute disregard for elders, and i dare say, want for attention as well. Guess its been a while since he had any of his articles 'trending' on cyberspace. His own day too is coming. People will sit down, analyse his own articles and arrive at the probably truthful conclusion that he is/was just a mediocre journalist who was just lucky enough to be bought over by a rogue politician to head his newspaper. 29 Likes |

Why is it always a Yoruba person, what would want to deceive people by trying to rubbish the achievement of someone, who's a million times better than him/her? If not that, they would pull up fake information and data just to make a deceitful point, why always them? . 27 Likes |

Eko Ile:its a case of hand of Esau voice of Jacob. Who is Sam working for? Tinubu. Whose interest is Sam protecting? Tinubu. Who was the reason Sam came under heat for insulting awo's wife? Tinubu. Who owns the mind of Sam? Tinubu. Who takes the blame for his bullshhit? Tinubu 16 Likes |

You guys should stop attacking the dude jor.

Free flow of words and action. You even act before your brain can think. Remember oil is a lubricant. 14 Likes |
