You must be sick in the head to think I am from the SE.

I am as yoruba as they get !!! Prof Wole has proven himself to be a cheap sellout.

People condemning GEJ is either hunted by witchcraft or just mischievous. Have u asked what your local govt n state govs have done for you?

These people are closer to the people than d president. It takes a long time to feel the impact of the FG that was one of the reasons GEJ was trying to make LG automonous but most of our govs are kicking against it as they want to keep controlling them.

Let's criticise this gentleman with decorum and constructively because he listens more than past presidents we had lest we regret our actions when he might have gone. Majority of the people never believed in jesus until he's gone.

We nigerians that are not in active politics should be able to know that most of the words that come out of the opposition are negative and aimed @ grabbing power @ all cost. When they eventually gets the power, they will tell undecerning nigerians that it will take 50yrs to repair what PDP has 'done'. You don't get power by bringing down a nation you wish well.

yoruba bigot ..y was he speechless when obasanjo ruled

Soyinka did not criticize Obasanjo? Maybe you only learnt to read, write and understand English after 2007

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! B[b]ut I will vote PDP 10 times before APC and I will also vote Jonathan 100 times before Buhari.
[/b]
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?

Stockholm syndrome infested thinking, you must as usual glorify the bandits who stole your present

Can anyone please give us a break down of all the parties and their candidates? I don't like PDP. I don't like APC. I want somebody who has no connection with all these old guies. My plan is to going in and vote for one random person, ordinary candidate nobody knows.

OP, is there a reason you did not provide a link to the article or interview given by Soyinka?

Could you please provide it here? Thanks in advance.

We have to keep trying.. Till we get the right person
We can't settle for less
I love change, not the APC Change.. But change in general
Every new govt comes with new ideas and at one point will praise the past administration
I think having GEJ for another four years will be so boring, because it can't be better than his previous 4 years
Or maybe this time, he will completely remove the remaining subsidy, and Nigerians even his supporters will start crying again

God help NIGERIA

Buhari is not new we've had him b4
