All this is not necessary, Prof. Soyinka has paid his dues for the country and like every other citizen is entitled to his opinion. His latest opinion is not a criteria to discredit him of his past achievements. Both Authors has contributed their quota let's focus now on the court case, all this side distraction is not necessary. my opinion though. 20 Likes 2 Shares |

If una like, insult everybody from now till the next 8 years, Nigerians will still decide based on who they prefer, not the candidate with the highest number of nattering nitwits. 30 Likes 2 Shares |

Sangoamadioha1: 😂 This make me laugh like craze. Are you saying OP is not intelligent enough to comprehend Wole Soyinka writings? Yugoslavia247 Is this true that you can’t comprehend Wole Soyinka books because of the kind of vocabulary baba dey always write? Is that why you don’t like reading it? 28 Likes 3 Shares |

Soyinka's books that I have read. The man died The trials of Brother Jero(Play) The Lion and the Jewel (play) Ake the Years of Childhood. Achebe's books that I have read Things fall apart No longer at Ease Anthills of the Savannah (did not really enjoy it, it was too dark for me). The trobule with Nigeria. (should be read in tandem with Enahoro's How to Be a Nigerian). A man of the people. 7 Likes 1 Share |

jconsulting: The OP asked a question and he gave examples of Achebe's books, why not stick to the thread and reply him with Soyinka's books, and for you talk about regional government, didn't the Igbos leave Lagos and the entire south west for you people to have their own country, you people fought and killed them to come back, so just keep quiet on that matter and focus on what the OP is discussing or simply leave the thread.... 6 Likes 1 Share |

The fact that more people can connect with the various books of James Hadley Chase doesn't mean he's at par with the legendary Williams Shakespeare. Achebe is like James Hadley Chase while Soyinka is like Shakespeare. I know that you don't know the difference. All Achebe's book is one way which is storytelling while Soyinka is more diverse in different fields of writing which includes but not limited to playwright, novelist, poet, and essay writing. I won't indulge you by naming his various works because I know that it's beyond your mental capacity, but do me a favour and read up on why he won a Nobel prize with the same works that your ignoramus self failed to understand 40 Likes 6 Shares |

Yugoslavia247: Yes there is a book for certain people. There are some book that a primary school child can’t read because of the type of complex English which is why we have different books for primary, secondary, and tertiary. Even if a primary school child is brilliant, there are books he can read and he will never comprehend. If you don’t know there are book for certain people, then your own case is worse than that illiterate man child called Sharley Boy. 20 Likes 3 Shares |

Yugoslavia247:The question is did he win highest world honour like Soyinka? So far he failed to win world cup in literature, forget it; humble yourself to accept Soyinka as the boss. The world weighed the two of them and gave world cup price to Soyinka because he is better. No need to brag, is not about how many books that are not recognized to win highest price in litrature, it is not about quantity of books written, it is about quality that attracts highest price which the world of literature had spoken loud about Soyinka being the boss.
