Never you try to compare Soyinka and Achebe. Achebe is 100x better than Soyinka in everything. Achebe is not after prizes, money and offers. He turned down several offers in his lifetime. To talk about envy because of a prize shows you know nothing about Achebe
He was not good enough to win the Nobel prize

Shut tf up u hare-brained 1ngrate. U hide under the guise of objectivity to subtly exhibit ur tribalism. Why didnt soyinka speak against buhari cum apc treasonable sentiments in 2011 and 15 ? Abi he was oblivous of what happened then. Fyi. Things Fall Apart that has been translated into over 50 lang is bigger all soyinka books combined. Theres a reason Achebe is widely considered as father of African literature u egg. Fucking tribalistic sonofab!tch [quote author=kokomilala post=122404223]When Too Much Hospitality And Kindness Beco

There are moments when one should appraise one's kindness and goodwill towards other people. Someone once posted on Facebook that women don't appreciate kindness. I think that's also true of the Igbos.

Looking at the sacrifice that Soyinka made for these hate-filled people some generations ago, one would wonder why these fascist narcissists from the East scorn him so much.

I've interacted with a number of Igbo people, and none was happy about Soyinka winning the coveted prize.

I've read some of Achebe's works: Things Fall Apart, No Longer At Ease, Arrow of God and one other that I've forgotten now. I think Achebe was a much better story teller, novelist than Soyinka. But I believe Soyinka is a much better, all round writer than Achebe. His cuts across much of the genres of literature with ease: prose, playwriting and poetry.

Some have even argued, and justifiably so in some quaters that Soyinka was William Shakespeare reborn, since they have the same initials.

Without promoting Yoruba nationalism or ethnic jingoism here, I think the Yoruba should, as a matter of necessity, re-appraise their relationship with the Igbos. I don't see any reason why one
should continue to be 'nice' to people who don't appreciate it, so much that they arrogantly taunt you with in-the-face taunts of ' Lagos is no man's land'

Achebe, as much as I liked him and his works, was a bigot, who never forgave Awolowo for his deft idea of economic blockade,which swung the war in favour of the federalist troops. So, he hated Awolowo as much as he hated Soyinka, even though he was a product of the West, University College, Ibadan, now University of Ibadan.

The blame should go their parents. The parents of those Igbo youths insulting Prof failed their children not Prof. They do not even appreciate any good done to them.

They never told them about Wole Soyinka, Fajuyi, Victor Banjo and Yoruba landlords who returned their rents and properties to them after the Nigerian civil war.Their parents fed them with hate and victim mentality even in a land they are critical stakeholders. Today, the Igbo has gone from being one of the big 3 to become number 5 behind Hausa, Yoruba,Fulani and Ijaw.

Hopefully, Reno will help educate them so they can tell their own children that they were wrongly indoctrinated to hate others. The Igbo youths brought up well to be self confident and love other Nigerians, I salute you and your parents.

They are ungrateful people and will soon regret their behaviour. Their attack Yoruba and Soyinka will never be forgotten.

@Zwanzig, second guessing your psychopathology wasn't difficult for me. And, it's clear that you're either one of the knackered Obidients or you're a neo- Obidient. At any rate, you're not different from the other fascist narcissists in the Obi league- brainwashed and politically conditioned to believe that this political space- Nigeria- could only be led by Obi.

I've seen through your psychology and visceral that
you cannot think independently. You only feed on what is passed down to you as RECEIVED wisdom or ideas etc, etc.

Talking about WS and Achebe, I had, in my previous post analyzed where their strengths lay. Yes, Things Fall Apart is among the greatest novels of all time. But Achebe's works after that fell short of the heights Things Fall Apart strained.

On the other hand, Soyinka has straddled the genres of literature, either in its written form or its spoken version. He mastered the craft of poetic playwriting the like of which had not been seen since the time of Christopher Marlowe, who invented it and William Shakespeare who perfected it. Read the play that clinched the Nobel Prize for him in 1986, DEATH AND THE KING'S HORSEMAN and you'll see how special WS is in his craft.

Going by the rabid vitriol you poured on me, I think you need to appreciate certain things and not always see things from your lens of impulsive defensiveness .

You called me a tribalist. No, I'm not. But a Yoruba nationist, yes. I no longer believe in the failed project called Nigeria.

N3TRAL:
Soyinka has done so much for Nigeria's democracy.

As a young man, about the age of most disobidient children, he was incarcerated by a military regime for almost two years. Just before the restoration of our presidential democracy, another military regime wanted him "dead or alive" during his necessary exile from Nigeria.

The venerable statesman has contributed more to Nigerian progress than most of you would ever do- in words and in deeds ; in theory and in practice.

As the heyday of Obidiotism is gradually coming to an end, I am proud that my convictions about the totalitarian movement were genuine and have been proven even to the least objective Nigerian.

One of my fears was the institutionalization of cancel culture. Another one was the giving of villain tags to Nigerian heroes who do not reply Obi with "Yes Daddy"!


I am vindicated for taking a stance against masked fascism.

U nor get sense. If he did treason for Biafra so he shouldn't go to jail? Let me go and kill for Tinubu then. If I won't be held responsible.

They are not only being ungrateful to Wole Soyinka but the entire Yoruba race. Next time Yorubas will learn to teach thier children how to be careful when they want to give political support to an Igbo man. It is that bad! Yes, there are very good Igbo but now we have to use the law of large number and from experience, supporting them may not be the best option. See this Obi they are talking about his mandate, more than 50% of the vote that made him lead Lagos was cast by Yorubas that probably did not know how Col Banjo was rewarded by Ojukwu for fighting for Biafra, How to date know Igbo social-cultural organization has deemed it fit to recognize the supreme sacrifice of loyalty paid by Fajuyi when he choose to die with Ironsi if they do not spear him,instead they are quick to tag the entire Yoruba race as a betrayal. I hope the recenty attack on Soyinka will teach the Yoruba Obidients follower some lessons. I hope they will remember the 5 Nigerian Major and how they choose to exceute the coup killing only Hausas and Yorubas to spearthe Igbo?
Lessons! lessons!! Lessions!!!

Yet he did spot the xenophobic and tribalistic attitude of BAT supporters. See Soyinka is bias. I was not shocked to see he once benefited from Tinubu. He spoke like the APC spokesperson. He was clearly selective in his criticism.
Nothing in this gibberish addresses any of the points I made, proving yet again what is obvious to anyone with half a brain: "bias" is what you budding fascists cry whenever anyone dares to deviate in the slightest from your point of view.

Below is the interview he granted when he was released from prison after he was imprisoned for almost 22 months for advocating for the Biafran people.

The irony here is that the same people are now calling him a tribal bigot just because he condemn the manner with which the Obidient kids abuse everyone and everything.
