₦airaland Forum

Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka has said that: ‘I Wole Soyinka will not be voting for either the two so called contesting parties. I find both of them worthy of absolute rejection.’

Soyinka made this known in an ongoing interactive session tagged citizen forum 2019.

He said “It is time for a totally new direction, and when an alternative emerges, we will give the candidate our backing,”

“For the avoidance of doubt, let me make my position quite clear because I don’t want any ambiguity; I Wole Soyinka will not be voting for either the two so called contesting parties. I find both of them worthy of absolute rejection,” he said.

“For a number of reasons which I will not go into here, I’m not interested in a comparative assessment. My position is simply that it is time for a totally new direction. And obviously, I’m not the only one, as I’m speaking, there is a coalition having its meeting in Lagos from which they hope to produce a consensus candidate.

“There is another group meeting in Abuja, also at the end would send us their consensus candidate. Things have been going on quietly in the background to try and change the direction of this nation in a very positive way, and to make the public understand that they do not have to be enslaved permanently to the old discredited order. It is my sole business in this election.

“I don’t believe in what is called negative vote which means, for me, throwing your vote in a waste basket, I believe instead in a creative vote, not a protest vote, not a negative vote but a creative vote. And a creative vote means that the will to at least sow a seed through your vote that will germinate eventually. The pace of germination is beyond the control of everyone, but it is never too early to make a beginning. It has happened before in other societies. When a dark horse emerges from nowhere and trumps all the political juggernauts caterpillars and so on with their performers, worthless, their capacity for violence and treachery.”

wole soyinka na person?

I remember when he said he won't go to America if Trump wins. Trump won and he still went.

he doesn't want that to happen to him on this one

It would have been paining me if I didn't have PVC, I can't wait to vote for AtikuObi.

2buffagain:
Explain the logic behind this decision if you will.
Are you accepting of Atiku's no doubt corrupt past?

name the saint in Buhari's Cabinet... Oponu

cosse:
u av been repeating this line now in several posts.....u are so dry

zombie, kill yourself

He has made his decision

I've made mine also, and mine is to vote for AtikuObi come Feb 16

Afonja Soyinka should be bold enough to condemn the dullard he helped foist on Nigerians.

Tell dem! Only people that hate Nigeria want Buhari or Atiku.

If you Vote for Sowore, just have it at the back if your mind that you have indirectly Voted for Buhari

Good for you!

I love this! Let have alternative, then I can vote

Simple, clear and straightforward. There is a devastating way on how a poor economy can affect the mind. Such is the case of Nigeria. The suffering mentality has reduced people's capacity to reason rationally. Buhari is not the way forward, but replacing him with Atiku is synonymous to "the dance of the Penguins" One step forward and then, two steps backward.

This man just likes attention

:baba don't waste your vote... Two weeks to the elections some so called Messiahs are forming coalition. Does that make sense? Either we like it or not we have to choose between INCOMPETENCY(PMB) and CORRUPTION(ATIKU)..



ATIKU .... it means 'we don die' in Yoruba

One person has got to win between the two though....

Chai

Hmm..

Buhary is a BAD PRODUCT. So difficult to market.

Just only one vote

That how you know a Nigerian who isn't sheep. I dey with you, baba


If Atiku wins, I can bet my left testicle the same mouths that are Atikulating, will be the ones raining curses before 2023

You're just a vote.

Well politics is local, and a game of numbers! The truth is a vote for any Oda Presidential candidate aside Atiku, is a vote for Buhari.

Vote wisely! Atiku all the way

Ok.....next

Some Nigerians have lost trust for politicians. They keep making promises like a randy man would do to lure a woman.
