Tell us what you understand about "Differential equations". You don't have to insult people's wives to show your mentally superiority. Look at the debate we are have today about girl child marriage in Nigeria, only in the land of the blind is one eyed man king. No matter how most of you call it in this forum, Mrs Jonah is better off than 99.9% of your mothers, sisters and wives. Worry about your mother and wives and leave the woman alone.


Another product of same-sex marriage!

The problem is that most nairalanders argue without objectivity... To them wole soyinka cannot be wrong, I am not saying he is... Patience jonathan has too many excesses, most of which are insulting to nigerians. However, resulting to frontal attacks and mindless name calling isn't the most diplomatic way to handle the situation. Secondly, I didn't hear him say anything about the pro- amaechi dude who resulted to physical violence to inorder to put his point across. To me, there is no better definiton of BIAS than that. Wole soyinka I notice is becoming more political than rational, which isn't gud for his image.

SHEPOPOTAMUS!!! grin grin grin


No first lady has ever been equated to any animal. But to be equated in looks to a hippopotamus certainly implies her progenitors must have mingled with a hippopotamus in the swamps.

The only difference in what Wole has said and what Abati said in 2010 are the words/phrases;
shepopotamus and "mere domestic appendage"

PointB: Let's look at it this way. How many times have Patience Ebele Jonathan - the victim of these unprovoked attacks- responded to Wole Soyinka ungentlemanly, immature, chauvinistic derision? Just once - in a mild press release to express her displeasure at Wole Soyinka's diatribe.

Subsequently, Wole Soyinka have called her 'illiterate', 'mammy wata, hippopotami.' and now 'shepopotamus'? Looks to me like the almighty WS is raring for a fight with a 'mere domestic appendage.' Incidentally, PEJ has borne all these vitriolic attacks calmly without uttering another word to Soyinka.

Women (forgive me if I sound a bit like Soyinka's but I mean no disrespect) are know to be more chatty/loquacious in comparison to men. Now the question I begin to ask myself is this: between Soyinka and PEJ who is more mature? Who really is the man here? The angry and loquacious Soyinka or the patient Patience? But with men like like Wole Soyinka, I bet indeed some mothers do have 'em!

I hope Patience continues to keep a dignified silence, in the face of this continue provocation. Shame that Soyinka's stock is falling - with every myopic outburst of his!


I quite agree with you i think Soyinka should chill why is hebehaving like a woman and always dragging the matter.He should behave like a man and stop trading word with a woman for christ sake.Is it proper for a man to be Quarrelling continuously with a woman pls he should behave like a man and relax joor

He also saw it as constitutional, d sacking of an elected local govt chairman. Soyinka has lost it.

your point is what exactly isn't a shame that the first lady you take as a deity can't communicate effective with the nation's lingua franca something toddler do without hassle. hippotami is representing with her grammatical blunders sha, next time when a man come to you that he has no shoe buy him one and let him go.
Ur grammar jus proved dat we borrowed. My confusion here is, why re u still throwing stone @ d first lady's inability to communicate effetively like WS?

I love the professor but truth be told, with the greatest respect, you need to shut up this time round sir because you wrong, you wrong, you wrong!

A still tongue they say keeps a wise head.

There are so many ways to skin a cat, it should never degenerate to name calling. Professor Soyinka I am sure is aware of "tact"

His words is akin to "bullying" , trying to get a rise out off the First Lady.

One thing is this, Igbo people will definitely hate Prof Soyinka because he has achieved what their literary late Icon China Achebe could not.
I don't join issues with all these biased tribalists stand out to archive, (A nju won o se with lejo ija ilara won ko tan boro) Soyinka has surpassed them, they are full of envy.
Is it an offence for him to air his opinion?
Useless tribalist.

Re: Soyinka: The Mad Old Professor (MOP) by Ollajay: 7:24pm On Jul 22, 2013
WS is a very brilliant scholar, a nobel lauret and professsor of high repute. But that alone is not sufficient to regard him as all round success in other spheres. For example, he is not really very sucessful in area of marriage. In the same way he is not an expert in politics or political leadership.

Unfortunately, his use of "abusive words" on PEJ is quite unbecoming of a man of his learning. He shouldnt use those words on PEJ or anyone at all. This type of misguided use of words has brought him to ridicule more than once. First, his use of words on the former SA to OBJ Mr Femi Fani-kayode led to insults and embarrasing words on Soyinka. Soyinka's comment on FFK suggested that there was something wrong with the level of intelligence of FFK's lineage referring to FFK's father. Unfortunately, WS didnt remember that FFK's father and grand father studied law at Cambridge (or some frontline UK Uni) and they both graduated with First Class.

WS was also insulted by Festus Keyamo when WS expressed a legal opinion which attempted to ridicule Keyamo. Keyamo insulted WS by saying he was "talking law and not tinkle tinkle little star", thereby saying WS can only speak on literature and not law.

The current use of words on PEJ by WS will further bring him to ridicle. If he continues this way, more and more people will insult him and he will lose a substantial amount of the respect he had.

Just my view though, anyone is free to disagree.

When the masquerade abandons his dignified dance steps and begins to be carried away by the ovation from the crowd, he is very likely to demystify himself! Wole has overstepped dignity. Neither he nor any mortal is beyond error or correction. It is a shame that a supposed statesman would vacate issues and descend to mudslinging. Talking about HE and SHEpopotamus, are there none in Wole's family?

Records have so far indicated that life is full of ups and downs, otherwise what else can be disappointing than Soyinka's display of foolishness arising from his high degree of poverty. Sometime one is tempted to reason that God has forsaken Nigeria considering the lowest level Soyinka is at present occupying in the scheme of things.
What prevents Soyinka from rising to the level of Mandela of South Africa. This a man who has not worked or contested any elective position apart from teaching which only ends up dashing lectures and marking. The only known public office he attempted was the FRSC and ran away with all the monies within the shortest period.
A man without a wife. How on earth can such man respect another man's wife.
An outdated poverty ridden societal deviant called professor Soyinka. There are man jobless people and still remain relevant in the society.
