Soyinka On Hardtalk by budaatum: 2:51am On Apr 23, 2019 |
HARDtalk, Wole Soyinka - Nobel Literature Laureate: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0004gb4 via @bbciplayer Summary (because someone will ask!) Buhari won first election by default Choice between devil and hard place Nigeria not peculiar with ex military presidents Wrote on toilet paper while in prison. Made own pen and soyink. Became inventive and innovative in prison Youths (young minds) should mobilise - the ashamed, seen different, not complacent Democracy a continuous process. If present fails we must take risk Youth leader Olisa Agbakogba sought approval of old foggy and got highjacked Corruption humongous problem, but there's been change, no more business as usual, pass for Buhari Young have to know country is theirs. President should have stopped boko haram when states declared Sharia Buhari was slow responding to herdsmen crisis, apathetic like Jonathan. Not into African languages prefers lingua franca Wants to be read by all and not just Yorubas There's more. . |
