This is the kind of leaders you have in the south.

Now compare these two old fools with politicians and elites from the north.

Have you heard or read of northern politicians fighting themselves on the pages of newspapers?

In so many ways, the north deserves to rule the south.

[size=18pt]His friends and loved ones will always be right and correct, no matter what they do or fail to do.
He is surely a better wine connoisseur and a more
successful aparo (guinea fowl) hunter than a political critic.
“Wole Soyinka is a gifted man. I have always
acknowledged that but he is a bad politician and I
have also always said that. That is my own point of view. He may agree with it, he may not agree with it. For instance, I know that if I want somebody to give me the best wine, one of the people I will go to is Wole Soyinka and I know he has a taste for good wine and I said that in the book.”[/size]

A good politician in Nigeria is a personification of evil,i.e,obj himself.

I love uncle wole not for too many things but he's one man who's not scared to spit out his thoughts on bothering issues. He doesn't need to be right always, his guts is enough

Reference:


I am not a fan of Soyinka by a long shot but this your idea is ridiculous. You assume it is only by posts and positions that people contribute to society and build nations. No wonder politics is so crass and vindictive, no wonder people steal, kill and destroy to get there. For your information (and you should be a good student of objective history), follow the life and times of Obasanjo right through the civil war to the present day and you will see a man who has contributed much more than any other to the place and point we are as a nation. This is a man at the centre of most ills we find today. If there is a Mr. Expediency, OBJ is it. I am not a fan of Soyinka at all but he is miles ahead of OBJ in NOT DESTROYING NIGERIA. I don't misunderstand movement for motion.

You are one of those who aren't deep enough and just graze the surface. Obj was never a perfect man and I don't think hr claims that too.
But anyone with critical analysis will judge him OK.
I am not related to him in anyway, but I think only shallow minds find it easy to blame someone else easily.

We all are the problem of Nigeria, not Obj alone. What about Ibb, Shagari, GMB (the incumbent) and sanni abacha?

Why are you making it look like OBJ is our problems? There have been two Democratic regimes after him, and the nation is even in a more sorry state with depleted reserves.

If you say Obj is the most terrible - I'll give you a few things to note

He aided debt cancellation
He left about 42 billion dollars in the reserve
At least my parents are civil servants, and many like themnever dreamt of buying cars let alone build a house - an by the time Obj was leaving most civil servants had a different story...

These are just a few, if you were alive in Obj civilian regime, you will know things weren't this tough.

I hate it when people are not practical. Everyone wants to blame who others blame in order to divert attention.

If your wife gave birth to triplet, its Objs fault, if you're sick - na Obj; anything bad in Nigeria is Objs fault.

Only lazy people blame others continually for their inadequacies.

FOR HOW LONG WILL YOU ALL KEEP BLAMING A GREAT GRANDFATHER FOR YOUR WOES angry

The worst part is that the two illiterates, political and economic, connived to give Nigeria a total illiterate as president.

thanks to prof; Soyinka for having the courage to tell that gorilla Obasanjo what he is.
this differentiates you from all those uneducated thieves and criminals who have been embezzling our country's money.
you and your kind (learned ones) should be leaders of that crime infested country

I laugh in ogwashi!!! N to think Nigerians swallowed hook line n sinker everything baba Iyabo wrote against Gej? Most Nigerians are so gullible. I think Obj needs to make peace with God. He has so much bottled up n thinks so highly of Himself. May God give him peace.

They're both useless fellows. They can beef themselves till they come to their senses and realise they should be exemplary characters for the upcoming ones.

Maybe if Soyinka had maintained his calling he might have grabbed that Oxford poet seat but I'm sure his egocentric character was an attribute to his failed quest.

Obasanjo on his own is an endemic failure with leaking mouth. A man that ruled Nigeria for 8 peaceful years but dragged us backwards. He's a coward who can't own up to any of his actions. Always looking for the easy way out. The same man that presided over the loss of bakassi and was scared stiff of his masters up North he had to authorise Sharia laws in Nigeria. He's a useless man... little wonder in his old age his family has abandoned him undecided.
