How many times did Soyinka condemned the killing of unarmed Igbos in the past before they became violent? Just asking because, Nigerian professors are more illiterate than ordinary market women in thinking.

Soyinka never mentioned IPOB or ESN in the quote. The OP is just being mischievous.



“I hold no brief for those who resort to burning down police stations, slaughter their occupants simply for the crime of earning a measly monthly pittance, torch electoral offices, assassinate politicians in calculated effort to set sections of the country against others in the promotion of their own political goals. These are largely nihilists, psychopaths and/or criminal lords, soul mates of Boko Haram, ISWAP, Da’esh and company, not to be confused with genuine liberators. All over the world, throughout history, elections are denounced, boycotted, and generally delegitimized without recourse to wanton butchery,” Mr Soyinka said.

Everybody knows that wole is A huge supporter of APC/Buhari, that's why he has never for once, condemned the killing of his people by miyetti Allah bandits going on in his backyard..

This same wole Soyinka has relatives who are currently refugees in Benin republic,! A problem brought upon those people by a man he still supports! I wonder what the DSS has on him that converted him into a full time zombie. A whole professor!!

grin He is pained, that the menace of Fulani herdsmen has been wiped out completely from the east.. Cowardic black slave!

He is one of the grand patrons of miyetti Allah banditry so i dont expect anything less from a black monkey with white hair
Yes but he spent years in Prison because of Biafra unlike Ojukwu and Lamidi Cownu who ran away

Stupid people everywhere. When IPOB were getting killed, what did the idiota say? More than a thousand people were killed in a church in Nkpor, you think their families will just move on? Me too I will must revenge the death of a family member at the hand of the police.

I guess Soyinka was also a stark illiterate when he single handedly hyjacked a radio station at GUN POINT in ibadam in the 60s just because of Akintola/Sarduana politics of blood, right? Is it not the same kind of dirty politics that is being reenacted today by Tinubu/Buhari!? Soyinka that used NADECO to run down the image of this country beyond repair just because his kinsman Abiola was not made president? Going as far as calling for western military intervention in Nigeria! I guess if the Americans intervened then on the side of NADECO, they would not have shot at anybody in Nigeria. They will invade Nigeria throwing rose flowers at Abacha, right? One thing I have found out about you Yorubas is that you guys always want to stand on top of others in order to stand taller.. Again, irrespective of your knowledge and exposure, you will always be victims of your tribal agenda in every political discuss in this country!
In all these you never linked him with a case of wanton destruction of public and private properties nor
even killings and celebration of savage.

Wole Soyinka, if u like speak and write big grammar from now till tomorrow, it changes nothing. Biafra must come. For the record, i have not heard you condemn the igangan massacre by herdmen in oyo state. Double standard at play. Stfu!!

Prof, you should also blame yourself for the role you played in installing this mistake of a President

Statements like this make no sense.

Did he vote on behalf of anyone or how?

Did he or anyone vote on your behalf?

Nigerians and blame shifting.

Did you vote?

Who did you vote for?

He is not talking of ESN or IPOB. What I can deduce from this, is the Noble Prof. is telling us that UGM and Boko Haram is one and the same of the same sponsors.


These are largely nihilists, psychopaths and/or criminal lords, soul mates of Boko Haram, ISWAP, Da’esh and company, not to be confused with genuine liberators.
I beg to disagree with you.
Go back and re read where you quote. But for your attention :

''These are'' is a plural pronoun form of ''this is''
But he didn't say ''this is''

Thus he used plural ''these'' meaning he was referring to more than one group.

It's still alright if he had said:

UGM, Ipob, and ESN are largely nihilists, psychopaths and/or criminal lords, soul mates of Boko Haram, ISWAP, Da’esh and company, not to be confused with genuine liberators.

Your deduction is wrong.

Don't get it twisted, bro!
Opposition or no opposition, "your people" are not living a better life than "my people" and will NEVER do as long merit is the yardstick! We criticize and fight a murderous regime simply because we can't settle for a culture of mediocrity and underachievement! Simple!

It's just a pity we find ourselves in a country with you guys who like to wear failure, gleefully and happily as a badge of honor.

Sorry but there is no fact to support your position. It is not one individual carrying out these attacks. That is why he used "these".
