Coming from a literate selfish old guru...

& U were so wise enough to support the dethronement of an educated man over an illiterate Mallam to rule over ur country, all because of ur selfish desire.

& That lil kid was wise enough to kick u out of his own seat,
most of y'all old men don't deserve sympathy in 9ja

can't you see how dumb you sound? You left the message and attacked the messenger. Your type is what he's talking about. I want to call you a fool but I'll reserve it for next time!

Young man shutup.. Illiteracy of the youths is tearing Nigeria apart. Nigerian youths are foolish and gullible.
Educated illiterates.
Rubbish youths.
If you don't go to school, tell me what is going to be your hassle; buying and selling or vocational training.
When you don't know the prospects of your study how would you grow it.
Quick money syndrome.
Young man don't quote me because I can curse you.

I don't believe Soyenka know them quite well enough; if he did, he wouldn't surreptitiously be encouraging them to rise up. Informed by what I read daily, the youth have mentally retrograded to the status of primitive ethnocentric bigots. Resorection led by them wouldn't usher in a new age of progress and prosperity but rather bloody anarchy and irrecoverable retrogression. Nigeria would be better advised to plod along, progress may be slow but at least there will be one.

true talk. a security man does not know difference between no parking and no waiting.
education is not not only about university certificate but ability to reason intelligently without insulting others while discussing issues.

Smart idiot. You are exactly the kind of unproductive youth he is referring to. You wrote in pidgin, to shield yourself from being expose as a dimwit incapable of eloquently expressing yourself in English, and you think we wont see through it. Lazy youth
So what's the way forward? How does one develop his vocabularies. Most times you will have it all figured out but to put it in writing is the major problem,

I totally support his claim..isn't it the same youth's that protested about COZA over a mere allegation but cannot protest over Ruga.

Isn't it the same youth's complaining about unemployment but are busy watching bbnaija, even wasting the hard earned money they begged from family or friends to vote

Isn't it the same youth's that prefers PDP to APC and vice versa

Isn't it the same youth's who read topic without reading write-up and jump to comment... Even here on NL

Isn't the same youth that do not have a mind of there own but only repeat what a politician or celebrity says.

Same youth's who care less who is ther LG chairman but blame FG all there life

Same youth's who only criticize the government of other regions but care less about what is going on in there respective home, just to score cheap political goal

Same youth's will still wait for there grand father's mate to lead a protest for them
true talk abeg

Mr Soyinka, let remind you that in your days brillant student study outside nigeria but today rich children do. no more scholarship for the poor. All you people that went and study abroad came back and open private school and private hospital for the rich people, forgetting that it was the tax payer money was used for your scholarship. you people are the cause of problem we face today.
this one hit me ,best post so far .more wisdom to this person abeg .wise person

It is just like a shout scaring a dog or a rat, does not mean the dog will die, but the dog will go elsewhere or the rat will go elsewhere, nothing but a scare tactic. To destroy your enemy, you must understand the nature of your enemy, become like your enemy and then plan your killing strategy. But the ultimate solution is surrender, merge with the system, and be like it and it balances out.

The entire system is an AI, which generates conscious beings that tries to balance the equations of the matrix. Permit me to stop these discussions here. I have gone through a lot, on account of revealing these informations on the nature of it, I had no idea that keeping it secret and using it personally was for my own protection until recently, and I do not want to break the codes, the system is automated and is inescapable. Now I totally know why the information is kept secret. it is for our own protection.
i'm beginning to believe what you said about an energy vampire being In my home.......
.but if there is, I'm sure it's my mother....... I mean how can a mother be keeping malice with her own child in the same house? When you were young, has your mother ever kept malice with you or Any one of your siblings before? This has been going on for so long, since I was 10......it even got to a point I was at the verge of committing suicide, because the frustrations were just too much..... It's like she derives joy from frustrations.......sometimes I don't even want to go home when I close from work........ the energy in my house is too Damn negative........too many frustrations, quarrelling........its like everything is just happening to create negative energy........ All of this is what's motivating me to become more better...... I believe there's an underlying cause behind these. I don't know who to talk to about this, you're the only knowledge able person I know on issues like this....
.please help me, help save me

You are learning through suffering. Simply meditate and surrender to it and remember that you are in charge of how you feel. Buy an ear phone and play your best music while the skirmishes happens and intentional resolve not to respond. Do it for 21 days and the negative charge generated by the vampire AI system will Lter it's polarity.

Your mom is just a vector and if you all have family meditation willingly understanding that there is a negative energy system within. Then you should be fine otherwise you just have to save and move out.

You are on your mission.

So you have the guts to associate and relate what prof. Soyinka is saying with Northern Nigerians hmm you have to think and reason very well before uttering any about Northern Nigerian because we Northerners mind our business we don't engage in things that is not related to us.

Common shut your hole up ..you guys are tge one disgracing nigeria from poverty to open defecation, illiteracy, high infant mortality rate,no infastructure, high school drop out,violence, insecurity, ..your govt took education from you and replaced it with religion. .
