PoliticsRe: Uber Facts Posts Bola Tinubu's US Drug Case by PulaPower: 9:28am On Apr 10, 2023
Nothing new.. it’s still about the forfeiture. The income isn’t his own. The people that used his account never told him it was drug money..

If Tinubu was the one involved in the drugs, he would have been convicted. No one does drugs in USA that got caught that won’t be convicted & jailed!

For example, If you’re a Pos vendor and a customer comes forward to use your account to receive illegal money and the culprit was caught, and the money got traced to your account, won’t you forfeit such money? Does that makes you a criminal?

LiteratureRe: I Can Mention Achebes Book. How Many Soyinka Book U Sabi by PulaPower: 10:38pm On Apr 09, 2023
MikeofAfrica:
I have confide in you the politics that made Soyinka to win the Nobel Prize in 1986.

However if you feel happy by priasing him, so be it. He is a very good writer that I have lots of respect for. Hence he deserves your praise.

The last winner of the Nobel Prize in literature, Mrs Annie Ernaux from France won the award after writing series of autobiography about her life.

She did not write any poetry, Novel, drama or play. She won the award because the French Government played the underground politics for her.

Hence some French citizens will boost tomorrow that Annie Ernaux is better than all the reknown authors that never won the Nobel prize. This include William Shakespeare and James Joyce.

It is well.
Politics can’t win you a Nobel laureate. You people with self-imaginations that are wrong ehh. Different institutions all around the world would first review all your collective works. Then after they’re done, they’ll pick the major contestant.

Then another set of institutions would further review all contestants. They’ll select the main contestants that are qualified for final review! The contestants that made it for the final review would then go through further review by another set of institutions all around the world! It’s one tough award to win! The time taken to pick the winner isn’t joke!

So politics can’t win you it! It’s not something that’s been decided by mere groups, but collectives from all continents. Go and check the contestants that WS got nominated with, then you’d know the man is beyond all these things you people are saying here..

Annie Ernaux - what made her won isn’t what you mentioned. You get awarded for a Nobel prize not for a single work, but for a life’s work. I heard this her project * A Man's Place and A Woman's Story* earned her alot and was part of her success. It was published in 1988..

So politics is far from what can get you a Nobel!

LiteratureRe: I Can Mention Achebes Book. How Many Soyinka Book U Sabi by PulaPower: 9:13pm On Apr 09, 2023
MikeofAfrica:
The fact that people like you chooses to tell a lie a thousand times to suit your narratives does not make it the truth.

Achebe won the Commonwealth Poetry award in 1972 for his poetry book - Soul Brothers. He was named the best poet in English speaking countries.

His other poetry works include
1. Christmas in Biafra ( 1973)
2. Another Africa ( 1997)
3. Collected Poems ( 2002)

Achebe also wrote Essays and Research Books. One of them is " There was a Country".

Shakespeare is a playwright like Soyinka but Shakespeare has more than three masterclass books that are known all over the world. Soyinka does not have a single masterclass.

The worst play written by Shakespeare is better than the best play( The trial of Brother Jero) written by Soyinka. The worst novel written by Achebe is better than the best novel written by Soyinka.

Achebe was suppose to win the Nobel Prize in 1986 but the Western nations wanted to spite on him for exposing the actrocities they committed in Africa through his books.

Hence they gave the award to Soyinka without being able to point out any of his books that earned him the award.

Obasanjo had a similar experience. He was meant to be the Secretary General of the United Nations in the early 90s but the Western nations that denied Achebe the Nobel Prize stood against Obasanjo because he spoke against the actrocities of the apartheid regime in South Africa.

Hence just as Achebe lost the Nobel prize to Soyinka for speaking for Africa, Obasanjo lost the UN secretary to an Egyptian for speaking for Africa.
Jangbajantis all cuz you wanna justify failure..

Soyinka is not Achebe’s mate in everything..

For you to win a Nobel prize, you are expected to come up with something new in terms of content or form or both. And that is how you win the Nobel Prize in Literature! It's awarded to someone who has done outstanding work in an idealistic direction that adds the greatest benefit to humankind! This is who WS is and these are the categories of people Soyinka belongs to. Only few people can be compared with Wole Soyinka. Very very few..

It’s an insult to compare Achebe of just a write story to sell kind of person. Soyinka goes beyond that! Soyinka is a branch of literature while Achebe is just a brilliant literature students! That’s how far differ they’re! Achebe knows this himself! The pained little diva, Shimamada Ashidi knows this!

In France, many French citizens speak English as a second language but most will not speak English to you as a visiting tourist because they expect you to have learned some French words and phrases used in everyday speech.

I hope people can see the real chest beaters and noise makers
You people loves to deviate from the truth so much. This is a response to the unfortunate comparison that had been in Igbos for long. You guys reeks of hatred, bigotry, low self esteem & bitterness..

You chest beat almost everyday about how you’ve bought almost all the land here in the west. Chest beat about how almost all of una be billionaires. So serving you guys responses to place you where you belong is very much welcome!

The tweet from chalie boy further proves everything we been saying right - Igbos were very pained that their own self acclaimed best man didn’t win the Nobel price while Soyinka did. It further proves that Igbos celebrities & some of their dignitaries are among those fueling the hatred.

Soyinka is not Achebe’s mate in everything. While I was reading the thread yesterday, they kept on saying Achebe sold alot of books. Many story writers have sold a lot of books more than Soyinka self. Any body can grabs Achebe’s book to read and understand, Soyinka books goes beyond that! Whatever Soyinka & his likes drops is what literature expect & writers are extracting to make things out from!

For you to win a Nobel prize, you are expected to come up with something new in terms of content or form or both. And that is how you win the Nobel Prize in Literature! It's awarded to someone who has done outstanding work in an idealistic direction that adds the greatest benefit to humankind! This is who WS is and these are the categories of people Soyinka belongs to. Only few people can be compared with Wole Soyinka. Very very few.. It’s an insult to compare Achebe of just a write story to sell kind of person. Soyinka goes beyond that! Soyinka is a branch of literature while Ashebe is just a brilliant literature students! That’s how far differ they’re! Achebe knows this himself! The pained little diva, Shimama Ashidi knows this!

The only reason why I don’t wanna say much is to respect the dead. Even tho, you people are not respecting Achebe by bringing his name to unfortunate comparison..
