See course of study na. Na this one be the real professor for Soyinka family, not Wole who is a professor in literature. People who hold PhD in certain courses should not be parading themselves as scholars. You can't have PhD in Islamic studies and be making noise disturbing public peace. I know a guy who has PhD in igbo language that he calls himself doc and I laugh whenever I see him. One day now, I will send one of all these inquisitive small children to go and ask him the course he majored for the doc he parades himself as.

Your ignorance is alarming!

It seems he was Soyinka who was with Dele Giwa when a parcel bomb exploded leading to the death of the journalist.

Even your Achebe or whatever cannot match Soyinka brother in achievements and that’s the younger brother.

Professor Wole Soyinka is greater than Achebe anytime!
Why on Earth do you have to be tribal with everything? He never compared Soyinka with Achebe, he never spoke out of tune of being Igbo, Hausa, Ijaw, Ughrobo or even Yoruba. Why are you this insecure? Is Wole Soyinka not one of the founding fathers of Pyrates Confraternity? Which was a cult group that gave birth to the hydra-headed monster destroying the youths of today? Agreed, they probably didn't mean for it to play out this way, but it did. Even though they've stopped recruiting undergraduates, which ends the cultism narrative, but what's done is done.
So please stop this tribalism nonsense and face reality. HABA!!!

These people up are lazy. They don't read before commenting.

The publication says younger brother of Prof. Wole Soyinka.

You should endeavour to read, digest and assimilate what's written before saying something.

Don't mind them jare.

SOYINKAS: A FAMILY OF ERUDITE SCHOLARS!




Death is nothing; one's impact and contribution to the overall wellbeing of humanity while alive is all that matter!




Adieu, great man of letters (Professor Femi Soyinka)!




Professor Wole Soyinka, please take heart, we are all born to die someday!




My sincere condolences to the rest of the Soyinka family!

Even in death, Prof. was still referred to as Soyinka's brother. He detested this while alive. He was an embodiment of achievements in his own right. It explains why Lola Shoneyin refused to bear Soyinka. Some names are made strong by some forbearers. Adieu Prof. You made your mark.

Eeya!!! Great Prof. The great erudite scholar of Nigeria. Met him years back in person and I must say you will love him immediately you interact with him. Plain hearted man and highly respected individual in the committee of Profs.
Rest in Peace sir. My condolence goes to the family left behind including our Nobel Laureate Prof. Wole Soyinka the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss. Nigeria has lost another gem.

Sorry,
You’re annoyed Professor Wole Soyinka impregnated your mother and refused the paternity 37 years after due to obvious DNA reasons. Why can’t you look elsewhere for your father
For your information, Professor Wole Soyinka is an accomplished literary giant and collosus revered around the world. Even Buhari refused to abuse him despite his criticism of his government on live TV.

Who gave birth to all these humans on Nairaland?

Here you go again tribalising the thread. Fighting over, and comparing two of Nigeria's greatest professors all because one is Igbo and the other Yoruba.

Shame!
I'm sure neither of you have attempted to publish an article in a journal. Even if it's watery or copy and paste.
E no go better for who do una this thing!

I beg, don't drag Achebe into it. There are bastards in every family. Achebe was a good man, but definitely we will still have some bastards from his linage.
