preventative measures in stopping
the spread of the disease. He
attributes early detection and proper nutrition to his stable health so far. Soyinka said that initially he felt the

"had to get rid of it whether it is a
slow growing one or malignant.” While not hinting at the kind or
extent of cancer he has, Soyinka's
son, Dr. Olaokun Soyinka,
