Peter Obi Meets With Wole Soyinka (Photo) by ganisucks(f): 10:27pm On May 07, 2023
Today, I visited one of Nigeria’s most revered figures and an international literary icon, Prof Wole Soyinka. Prof Soyinka has been a father whom I hold in very high esteem for what he has achieved and stands for in the struggle for a better Nigeria.

His reputation as a fighter for justice and equity in our society has been legendary and we will NEVER ignore them. I had a very useful and enriching discussion about his aspirations for a better and greater Nigeria, and he shared a lot with me about his dream for a greater and more inclusive Nigeria. I reminded the Nobel laureate of the huge price he paid just before the outbreak of the civil war, fighting for the cause of the Igbos.

I cherished this Sunday's visit which was intended to erase the needless misconceptions about the relationship between the great icon and the OBIdient family. -PO

All hands should be on deck to keep Nigeria one and stable.

A political handshake from the South to the North should be encouraged.

God bless Nigeria and Nigerians 🤗❤👍

Nice, he's building new bridges of love and unity.

But I think there's something fundamentally wrong with Nigeria, good people with good intentions are not given the chance, I don't know why

Most detribalised and most presidential Nigerian alive today.

The man who single handedly killed money politics in Nigeria, he gave Nigerians hope, he made us realise that it's Possible.

If Nigeria miss Peter Obi and Datti Ahmed, it won't recover in the the next 20 years.

He's preparing to take charge, and form a national united government, after being declared by the courts as the duly elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Any political group that wants to drive change of political order in a democracy MUST tolerate contrary opinions, voices of dissent and acts of opposition.

The current Nigeria democracy is no doubt benefiting from highly active and youthfully vociferous opposition that Obi-dients provide. However, their lack of tolerance to slight deviation of opinions is TOXIC and DANGEROUS.

This negative attitude will always be RESISTED by every true intellectual. The reason is very simple: intellectualism and flow/exchange of ideas flourish when every shade of opinion is heard. Intellectual abhor herd mentality.

So when intellectuals like Prof Soyinka, Prof. Soludo and others like them stoutly detest and vehemently counter Obi-dients and their lack of tolerance, you will appreciate where they are coming from.

Change of tactics needed and I am happy Peter Obi himself is leading the way.

When I say these clans really cannot do or make significant progress without the SW and Yorubas, they do come for my head. I thought they said Yorubas are betrayals and tribalistic?? Why has Obi been moving from one Yoruba elder's house to the other? What happened to all the Onowu's court in the SE? why is he not visiting any of them?? Are they so Inconsiquential??

Pls we urgently need answers

My post is for intelligent Nigerians who are smart enough to distinguish between persons who have the will power to make the country great and those whose only interest is to enlarge their estate through suppressive, subversive and criminal means

Here Peter Obi demonstrates what so many having been saying from the start of his presidential bid: more than anything else, his rabidly intolerant supporters were the ones who cost him any chance of victory, by alienating everyone who wasn't in perfect alignment with every single one of their opinions. Just compare and contrast the vicious insults and personal attacks they unleashed upon Soyinka's head with this statement by Obi in which he forthrightly acknowledges what all his ignorant and bilious supporters couldn't: that Wole Soyinka paid an unimaginably high personal cost for the Igbos during the civil war, and has more than earned his right to speak out on public affairs without fear of frothing mobs calling him every foul name in the book.

This is one of the many things I so hate and dislike about this dangerous and slimy snake, he sits and looks the other way while his vile, disgusting and toxic mob insult, abuse, denigrate, ridicule and trash other people, they dragged and trashed Prof Wole Soyinka for almost 2 weeks, but this 2 face slimy clown was enjoying it and refused to order his toxic mob to desist, now he's prostrating and playing nice as if he was under some cave in Afghanistan when his mob was attacking the Professor.

It's always the same crooked and deceptive game all the time, Nigeria is so lucky that God rejected this evil and bigoted clown.

Before the election, how many politicians and influential persons from the SE supported Obi?

Obi is supported by the youths so you are just displaying tribalistic sentiments

Rest in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Whatever happened to Soyinka, he invited it upon himself.

Prior to his ignominious adventure into trying to rationalize the sham election organized by INEC, every Nigerian, including Obidients, held Soyinka in high esteem.

But like an Igbo proverb says, if an elder refuses to respect himself, children will play with his testicles.

Soyinka refused to respect himself when he tried to give his imprimatur to an election that the entire world condemned. He deserved every disrespect he got and I’m happy he was bullied back into silence where he was.
