And finally all of us, including me and you, whether evil or good will also die. So don't wish death on good man Soyinka because one day you will meet him in the grave. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Adamux: Only to turn around and fight the children of the fathers he fought for. He was a major voice supporting the protests during goodluck Jonathan's time, he and the elites held banners protesting against goodluck. Now all of a sudden he is an old man, I remember then the pyrates confraternity were willing to follow this man to the ends of the earth as he fought against goodluck, now even the hardship is affecting not only him and the people around him but all the confraternities in Nigeria, all men, women and children are under hardship because of choices he made and you want us to give him accolades abi... |

I may have my reservations against him but if the truth must be told,Nigeria needs this decentralization soon rather than later! Every state needs to develop at their own pace with their own resources under their care! This feeding bottle federalism only makes governors lazy with everyone focussing at the centre! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Massiveglory: Was the election rigged or we Yoruba tribalists voted for Emilokan Tinubu? You are all confused. Let me just remind you that if you start preparing for 2039 now, you MAY still make it. As for 2027, we have that in our pockets, we have grabbed, snatched and run away with 2027 already. 2031 to 2039 is for the Kanuri Wonder Boy Shettima. So, if you start preparing for 2039 now, you MAY be lucky if the god of Politics Emilokan Asiwaju Tinubu forgives you, if he doesn't, then no hope for you 1 Like |

The way to go in order to stop the lazy governors from being lazy and really hold them responsible for their actions and inactions, then stop the overbloated representatives from milking this country dry. |

kikake: 40 years ago decentralization would have been meaningful. What we have today are governors etc. that bought their way to power. Just tell me two distinguished governors you know since 1999 compared to the worst governor of Second Republic. Allowing fiscal autonomy for LG is nil and you expect dividends of democracy from these generation of very corrupt mini dictators |

The Words of a Sage and The Reactions of Congealed Minds It's been a while I learnt my opinion to NL. More often than not, I see a lot of stupid, drab and oft childish reactions - very short on substance or common sense, but very long on stupidity and words. What Soyinka has said is not for idiots, the slow-to- understand and dimwits to understand. You've got to read it slowly to let it sink. In a nutshell, he decries the merry-go-round of constitutional reforms, propped up as restructuring by successive governments. He also advocates a decentralisation of responsibilities. In a situation where the centre holds too tightly to resources and responsibilities, humanity suffers, as is evident in Nigeria. In the rush to quickly comment, many on NL don't read posts well enough to grasp it. So, in a knee-jerk reaction posture, some spew out a lot of nonsense. This generation doesn't read enough. Hence, it's difficult for its young people to really sieve facts from fiction, substance from shadow. 1 Like |
