Gbadoboy:
What does Soyinka have? An award that he won because Other Africans boycotted it and it was given to him to spite African writers?

XerXers:
All over the word Soyinka is relatively unknown. His works are usually below average

AareGaa:
Crippled Achebe spent his entire miserable life in bitterness and envy of Wole Soyinka.
Just the way Ekwueme was envying Obasanjo, and Ogbonnaya Onu was envying Jagaban.

Today, these bittered clowns have all perished, and Wole Soyinka, Obasanjo, Jagaban are waxing stronger

Gbadoboy:
Chinua Achebe has the best selling African Literature that has remained at the top till this day.
Soyinka does not even have any book in the top 10. To be honest, Soyinka can not even lace the shoes of Nnedi Okoroafor.

ANSMEDIA:
Yesterday I decided to visit Ogidi in Idemili north local government area of Anambra state the home town of Prof Chinua Achebe, I was able to cover his home town Ogidi and his resident

AareGaa:
Crippled Achebe is beneath Wole Soyinka.
Soyinka's works can be compared to Shakespeare's.

Crippled Achebe's works are ordinary novels, while Great Soyinka works include novels, poetry, drama, etc.

Soyinka is a complete writer, like Shakespeare.

Most of your blodas are educated illiterates with inferiority complex, hence they cannot understand or accept what I just explained

kettykin:
If this is ogidi , then ogidi is almost at par with some state capitals.

I am really fascinated with this level of development of ogidi without much noise ...

Ogidi really has people

FourQu:
Can we also see soyinka's House?

I'd love to see how his home and its surrounding neighbourhood looks like

Can any RoNu oblige me?

NOTE: I remember he cried out about fulani herdsmen attacking his farm and stuff at his backyard that year . . . So it's perfectly okay to show us the forests and bushes around his home too. It won't surprise us one bit

Sergio103:
Honour the challenge.

Soyinka vs Achebe. A good comparison thread for it.

You think it's by writing to sweet talk to the colonialist? Or by betraying the agreement to sabotage mere award from the oppressors and taking the award?

Nah!. Literature is heart. You write blunt, you maintain integrity!!

😆....chinua Achebe died wishing he had one.

You his kinsmen will explain tire how he merited it or how the award is inconsequential 😆

Ikpongiton:
Just enjoying a needless fight between the two big for nothing tribes that has put Nigeria at a standstill.

Kirchoffs:
Another dick measuring contest between Yoruba and igbo, cat and rat on nairaland

omoluka:
Say it as it is, it is the Igbo that drag Yoruba into it, just read all the comments on the first page of this thread.

stanluiz:
Ogidi is more developed than most states in Nigeria.

Eunoiaa:
Look at this coward. So you modified your post to make it seem as if I just randomly attacked you abi? 🤣🤣


Boda wey mumu.

Olodo say "cause".

PussyOdour:
You're being deluded. You're gloating about Nobel laureate that has heavily been subjected to criticism because of how it's been given to people who don't merit it. In terms of Award, I can't count numbers of Awards that Chinua Achebe rejected in his life time, so stop gloating. Soyinka can never lace the shoes of great Achebe.

ANSMEDIA:
Ignorant mind Ogidi host the biggest building Materials market in the country, traders from many states including Abuja come there to buy building materials
