VirginSearcher:He is good as an activist but as a leader? No no no. He was once a director of a federal parastatal/agency. Ask people what he did there. My respect to the Legend though. |

Pearlyakin:Have you been outside Nigeria? Once you hear any news with “gang related activities” on headlines, the next thing you hear from the nearest white person close to you is “these blacks” And tbh most times na blacks dey sparehead these things outside Nigeria. That’s why Georgia has the highest number of gangsters because Georgia is literally the black state in U.S . Make una change, you guys are making good blacks suffer outside Nigeria 1 Like |

11. He was imprisoned for 22 months because of ungrateful biafrans. The same Biafrans who insult him today at every opportunity. Ingrates. Not surprised though. Soyinka has since learned that if you cast your pearls before swine, they’ll trample on them and turn against you and tear you to shreds. We remember not long ago when Doctors Without Borders remarked on the ingratitude of Biafrans after the war. https://www.sunnewsonline.com/doctors-without-borders-and-50-years-of-biafras-ingratitude 5 Likes 2 Shares |
