The PDP is not a great party and to that extent the OP is right, but what is the alternative?

Your father, and your entire generation all together no reach this man slippers. Useless buffon!

mikeansy:
PDP has not always lived up to expectation. They are not a great political party by world class standard.

Jonathan Goodluck is not a charismatic leader nor a great leader!

But it is too easy to criticise PDP in isolation without suggesting who the alternative is.

Compared to Democrats or Republicans in USA, PDP is rubbish! But I will vote PDP 10 times before APC and I will also vote Jonathan 100 times before Buhari.

So the Professor has to provide what in his wisdom is a relative assessment of PDP in a Nigerian context. You can't just benchmark PDP against nothing and say " do not vote PDP".

Please who do we vote instead?

samento:
If PDP continue to rule this country for four years more, I bet you, you will not be able to train your children because of the level of poverty we must have found ourselves.

Wole Soyinka-- A noble Winner, A human Activist, A hero, A Scholar, A Professor, An Achiever and many more. Who can beat these in Nigeria?

Then he can take his opinion and shove it

omerta:
You are such a big _retard! Google up some of Soyinka's anti-Buhari topics, buffoon.

emmasege:
Before nko?, isn't his son a serving commissioner in Amosuns APC government. Wole Soyinka has for long ceased to be a national conscience. He's never seen anything wrong in APC, & he's always against PDP. This is not how a Yoruba elder behaves. Agbo ejo enikan da, agba osika ni. Let him enrol in OBJs school of wisdom. OBJ criticizes both d PDP & d APC, & that's y he still earns the respect of both sides.

According to Professor Wole Soyinka, "Only four sets of people can vote for the PDP:

(1) Those who are intellectually blind,

(2) those who are blinded by ethnicity,

(3) those who are blinded by corruption and therefore afraid of the unknown, should power change hands, &

(4) those who are suffering from a combination of the above terminal sicknesses"

And it hurts
When he said patience a Jonathan had every right yo be Perm sec inabsentia I knew something was amiss,I suspected he was know being bankrolled by aso rock
After his meddling in the Amaechi saga I knew the man had changed employment and lost it completely
Amaechi sacked elected LGA chairmen,Soyinka said nothing but came swinging at patience Jonathan
A man who has been married thrice taking a swing at someone's wife
So APC is his better alternative ?
The same APC where a man bought a bed for 50 million naira amidst months of owed salary and pension
I believe Nigeria's conscience died with the death of Gani Fawehinmi RIP
Soyinka is turning out to be a big disgrace in his old age
He is now like that cellophane we see on the expressway
Without a will
Trailer will pass,it rise and follow it,tipper will pass same thing
Okada sef will pass,it will fly up in the air

GboyegaD:
The challenge is our idea of democracy which is "where do I get ny bread buttered" and not who can govern better.

Myself2:


He has lost the respect of so many discerning Nigerians,save for the gullible few that are either members of his secret cult or APC goons.It's a shame how he has descended so low into being an errand boy for mischievous politicians

babyosisi:

I admired that man a great deal
Not anymore
Anyone who is sincere and in his position ought to blast both APC and PDP
They are all crooks
But it looks like some crooks are now sustaining him financially
Tambuwal was evil yesterday and today he picks up a broom,he is now a saint

What is the difference? I am not being sarcastic here, from a leader's perspective; both are the same.

NB: [i]Buttering[i/] my bread: Making me have a better life ..... food, shelter, basic amenities, etc

Better governance is still the same thing.

In essence, most people will vote for you because of what they get from you and not how you can eventually improve the economy of the state/nation.



Unless, you mean something else. So, from your perspective, what is the difference?

dazangel11:


I wonder. Hope soyinka is not asking us to vote apc
