husbandsnatcha: IGNORANT ILLITERATE. WOLE SOYINKA WON THE NOBEL PRIZE FOR LITERATURE IN 1986 BASED ON HIS ENTIRE BODY OF LITERARY WORK AND PUBLICATIONS, NOT ANY SINGLE PARTICULAR WORK. HIS LATEST NOVEL - CHRONICLES FROM THE LAND OF THE HAPPIEST PEOPLE ON EARTH, IS ON NEW YORK TIMES PRESTIGIOUS LIST OF 'NOTABLE BOOKS OF THE YEAR', 2023. SOYINKA WALKS THE STEETS OF NAPLES, PARIS, AND NEW YORK, AND PEOPLE OF ALL COLOURS STOP HIM FOR AUTOGRAPHS AND SELFIES. HE IS A NIGERIAN AND AFRICAN TREASURE AND LEGEND. YOUR NASTY OPINION OF HIM COUNTS FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN A WORLD OF ADMIRERS. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvcUANjP_6o&ab_channel=AlJazeeraEnglish 4 Likes |

Napata77:Spare that your tribe is always used for divide and conquer . Didn't start today ! Not 1900, not 1700 but as far back as 1254AD . Association of black authors swore not to collect some award y did he agree to collect such award when he isn't amongst top 10 in Africa. Kenneth Kaunda and flora nwapa has written soul touching books not to talk if great Achebe, ekwensi & ngugui and slave masters decided to pick him ( and he agreed ) just to divide and conquer these eloquent writers. This is how we planned a new nigeria without corruption and ur people derailed once more by tribalism just like endsars. 1 Like |

husbandsnatcha:When did he reject a Nobel prize? He was never nominated…. Both are great writers. Prof writes for people with deep understanding literary appreciation while Achebe books can be easily understood by commoners, a man who is averagely lettered depending on which area one belongs to. Achebe books are like basic mathematics while professor’s books are like further mathematics. So must have super analytical mind of literature before you grasp his stories. Wole Soyinka’s books are not for rookies 5 Likes |

Guestlander:You obviously can't read to save your life... Google up the Nobel Prize and read up to its sundry controversies... The Nobel prize is awarded by The Albert Nobel Foundation...The selection board is almost made up of Swedes... It is never a global institution... Infact the foundation has been condemned over the years for the subjectivity of its selection process. Many countries including the US do not rate The Nobel Prize that highly...some of them have instituted their own setups to reward sterling performance in a more holistic and objective way.... |
Re: U by seunowa(f): 7:38am On Apr 10, 2023 |
BastadThiefnubu: You are an incompetent idiot soul who is suffering from brain defects. Both are distinctively different in the way they write there stories. Wole Soyinka is an embodiment of all literary works such as poet, prose and playwright and he makes wonderful display of imageries in his works which only be understood by highly intelligent person with deep literary appreciation. It was on these grounds that he won Nobel prize in literature. Achebe was a great storyteller (just one aspect of literature)whose works can be easily discerned by averagely lettered man because of his use of simple English. 4 Likes |

maestroferddi: You are the one who is obviously dyslexic. Where did I say the Nobel is a global institution. I said the award is given to the very best around the world. And you accuse me of not being able to read! Wonders shall never end. The United States doesn't rate the Nobel Prize high? That is a big lie, the Nobel Prize is considered a major honor across the world. Nobody is compelled to accept it but most people do, even president Obama got one. I don't know where you get the idea that the Nobel Prize is not rated highly in the United States. You are basically trying to run down an award given to some of the best brains in the world because Achebe didn't win. Na wah o. 4 Likes |

Guestlander:Oga, stop backtracking weakly... You stated that the Nobel Prize is the gold standard in literary excellence and now that your weak argument has been torpedoed, you still have the effrontery to shoot off your mouth... Dude, humble yourself and learn... |
Re: U by Guestlander: 8:13am On Apr 10, 2023 |
maestroferddi: Can you simply quote where I said the "Nobel prize is the gold standard in literary excellence" it might as well be but I didn't say that. What I said is that the award is given to the very best in various fields across the world. If you know a literary award that is greater than the Nobel Prize please tell us. 1 Like |
Re: U by maestroferddi: 8:24am On Apr 10, 2023 |
Guestlander:This is your comment and it is ultimately mendacious... The Nobel prize is given to the candidate who comes top among names selected by the board of the The Albert Nobel Foundation... The board has a selection criteria which doesn't necessarily read as the best in their field . Some people have won the award in the past who cannot be the best in their fields... I expected you to save our salivas by taking out time to research the assertion I made instead of arguing blindly... If you are not adding value to my engagement, I will not respond to you going forward... |

Phillipson02: One thing is for sure and I can tell from the body language of Prof. Woke. He has dined with the APC in the past. If he speaks against them, his secret would exposed just like father Mbaka that was accused by Garba Shehu that he came to the Villa looking for contract. Prof. Wole Soyinka is one of the common thief in Nigeria. Because how can you explain his silence in all of Buhari's colossal performance. The same Prof that was granting interview on a weekly basis during the time of GEJ... I have never for once look up to him as a role model, while growing up, because I see the face of a thief anytime I is us pictures. |
