This was a fifteen year old boy.... He was caught stealing bread from a store. On trying to escape from the hold of the guard, a shelf of the store was also broken. *The judge heard the crime and asked the boy, “Did you really steal something, a loaf of bread and cheese?”* The boy responded by looking down.;- *“Yes.”* *Judge:* - “Why?” *Boy:* - “I needed it.” *Judge:* - “Couldn't you have bought?” *Boy:* - “There was no money.” *Judge:* - “Take it from the family.” *Boy:* - “There is only a mother in the house. Sick and unemployed. *Judge:* - “You don't do anything?” *Boy:* - “Used to wash a car. When I took a day off to take care of my mother, I was fired.” *Judge:* - “Don’t you ask someone for help?” *Boy:* - “Had left the house since morning, went to about fifty (50) people, but no help; so, I decided to take this step at the very end.” *When the arguments ended, the judge began to pronounce the verdict;* ... “the theft and especially the stealing of Bread by a hungry boy is a very shameful crime and we are all responsible for this crime." *Every person in the court, including me, is guilty and a perpetrator, so every person present here is fined ten dollars each. No one can get out of here without giving ten dollars.”* Saying this, the judge took ten dollars out of his own pocket and then picked up the pen and started writing name accordingly: *- ‘In addition, I fine the store a thousand dollars for handing over a hungry child to the Police.’* *‘If the penalty is not deposited within 24 hours, the court will order to seal the store.’ also the Police is fined the same amount for charging a hungry boy to court.* 'By giving the full amount of fine to this boy, the court asks for forgiveness from that boy.' After hearing the verdict, tears were pouring from the eyes of the people present in the court, that boy's handcuffs were also untied. The boy was watching the judge again and again, who came out hiding his tears. *Are our society, systems and courts ready for such a decision?* *if a hungry person is caught stealing bread, then the people of that country should be ashame.* If this touches your heart: chose someone to give succour... *People around you should not sleep without food’* Happy Sunday

It seems like old age has caught up with Soyinka. I'm not sure he still remembers things he said. |
I Agree Completely With Soyinka, Buhari Was Not Even Aware That He Was The president of FRN |
Nobel laureate Prof. Wole Soyinka has said that former President Muhammadu Buhari was an “idiot” for banning Twitter in Nigeria. Soyinka said this in an interview with Arise News Television at the CANEX Live Theatre closing ceremony of the 3rd Intra-African Trade Fair (IATF) 2023, convened in Cairo, Egypt by the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank), in collaboration with the African Union and African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). He said while the internet and social media space had been infested with foul communications and languages by people of “lower intelligence, integrity and sense of concern of involvement, regulation of social media should be constructive, methodical and structured”. According to Soyinka, Nigeria and Africa, in general, may have to totally reverse their educational systems to take in what he described as a new monster. He stressed that the internet and social media are a valuable contribution to the entire human enterprise. Soyinka said, “I see everything of value being debased; values which I grew up with as a child and that includes language, use of appropriate language. “When I see a space being infested, a communication space infested by the people of lower intelligence, integrity, sense of concern of involvement, then existed in the print media; we should also remember that this internet, there is nothing novel all about it, it is an enhancement of something we have always been doing before. “It is an enhancement of the print medium and there is a more critical approach to the print medium - the editor sits down, even letters to the editor particularly go through full vetting processes. “But now you can have any kind of pig from the gutter who simply because he’s got a paw and therefore can put that paw in the dirt, in filth and then imprint it on the nearest space, that is the internet has become. “Having known better from childhood, all the way through my development, it is an abysmal stage of one’s compelled existence to have to confront things like that.” According to the literary icon, “something drastic has to be done about it”. “The publishing enterprise has a huge role to play in this. Maybe we even have to organize weeklong, monthlong seminars across the African continent so that let this garbage come from elsewhere. Why should it be coming from my own society? A society that has produced engineers and doctors who are valued all over the world.” Soyinka said it riles him to see “some garbage simply because they have access” foul up the society. He added that he hopes he “will never meet any of them responsible in a dark alley,” because they will find out he can be young. When asked if he strongly believes in regulation of the internet, he said, “Theoretically, if you are going to regulate, who regulates it? How does he go about it? Does regulation begin from education – new education? Do we include teaching from the level of primary schools because even children now speak a language which I don’t understand - internet language? Watch them at work there, I’m like an illiterate and I will never compete with that. “So, maybe we will have to totally revise our educational system to take in this new monster which, however, is a valuable contribution to the entire human enterprise. “So, while we talk about regulation, I want us to be very careful there. I don’t want some dictator like this last one (immediate former President Muhammadu Buhari who banned Twitter) attempted to do; who woke up and said I’m banning Facebook (Twitter), Idiot! “You just wake up and say you are banning Facebook, that is nonsense! Do something constructive, methodical, structured about it, including making the criminals understand that they deserve to be somewhere else. https://saharareporters.com/2023/11/12/buhari-was-idiot-banning-social-media-wole-soyinka
