Nobody is disrespectful to him....it remains appalling and strange and unfortunate that he's one of those who enthroned buhari on a once peaceful thriving nation
Nobody is disrespectful?!!

Has the concept or meaning of "Disrespectful" changed?!!

...Or you are new to Nairaland and Social media?!!


The main people that helped enshrine Buhari in 2015 were:

1. Goodluck Jonathan for being clueless and unable to take firm grip of his cabinet.

2. Practically all religious leaders from Christians to Muslims.

3. Sowore and Sahara Reporters.

4. The same Atiku and El-Rufai forming opposition.

5. Average Nigerians that felt anyone, even a goat, was going to do better than GEJ.



So, maybe you need to revisit that statement.

Breath, let your bigited induced existencebreath too. No one in your generationdead alive or unborn can ever accomplish 1/ trillion what Soyinka accomplished.

Wole Soyinka no be your mate. If you doubt me, he is your father's age mate, tell us your father's name let compare with that of Soyinka ?

Hate nor bigotry no fit fill the gap, you will only end up disgracing your father who can never meet up to Soyinka's standard so drink water n rest easy. Person wey pass you pass you.

Thank you Mr President Donald Trump, let this old man stay in his ogun state forest real estate and art gallery, and focus on his old age and deteriorating health. What his he finding up and down again, does soyinka want to pass out during international flight, he has achieved what needed to be achieved, USA should please reserve the visa for another hustler who might need it. Soyinka should stay at home and be taking care of his grand children, he should enjoy tinubus government, he should be visiting buharis grave in katsina cause soyinka is one of the people that brought calamity to Nigeria , and he should also be going to bayelsa state to beg president good luck Jonathan and mama peace that they should forgive him.

Re: Wole Soyinka Reacts As U.S Revokes His Visa Permanently by Jakumo(m): 4:44pm On Oct 28, 2025
In the fullness of time after this dreadful anomaly called the Trump regime is dead and gone, Wole Soyinka will be approached by US government officials who will likely offer the Nobel Laureate a lifetime unlimited reentry visa, in recognition for Wole Soyinka's lifelong heroic stand against tyranny not only in Africa, but now also in the USA, the one-time bastion of electoral democracy now facing its greatest existential peril.

Wole Soyinka is an African literary icon whose creative influence transcends cultures and time-zones for a truly global reach. It is noteworthy that Wole Soyinka could have taken the path of least resistance, and kept quiet while he witnessed the evolving tyrannical tendencies of Donald Trump in America, but Wole Soyinka's indominable and immutable conscience got the better of him, forbade him to remain quiet, and caused him to relinquish forever his once-treasured American Green Card in protest over the unconstitutional ascent of King Trump in America.

Those who mock and revile Wole Soyinka with their usual online vituperations would not qualify for engagement as a gardening trainee manicuring the lush landscape of the professor's country estate, yet thanks to the anonymity of the internet, the usual crew of career clowns who always find fault in Wole Soyinka are free to wax lyrical in their capacity as inconsequential court-jesters.

God bless Nigeria. God bless The United States of America
May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the bedroom tackle of Trump, his fellow Nazis, and all his cult followers.

This man should stop sounding like one of those phools out there.
He did not tear any Visa.
He just made up this story to hide the pains in his heart.
He want us to believe that he had already divorced them before they announced their divorce.
You tore your visa, why did you retained the B2 and still travelled to the US?

All of una must collect.
