Literature › Re: 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!

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.
Very true..

Makes me remember This movie... *Emily in Paris* comes to mind..You can try see the movie if you haven’t - It's about one USA girl that got transferred to Paris.

EastAlchemist:
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!

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..

MetroLane:
Then the Government of Benin Republic will deport all the yorubas so that the Fulani Herdsmen will finish them once and for all.


No one has a monopoly of Deportation.



So why didn't the Yorubas deport the Fulanis.... Weren't the Fulanis disrespectful enough.... Oh I forgot some of the Yoruba leaders couldn't do anything, One even said " where are the Cows? ....... He even went further to add that Yorubas and Fulani are one


You are one, yet they are killing and chasing you out of your Homes, but the IPOBs are your problems... If this isn't Premium Cowardice, then I don't know what it is.


Yet here it is, Out here in the public, if I can see this, imagine the amount of people seeing it also. Yorubas can do nothing to the Fulanis.....



And how did Government treat the same Sunday Igboho...... I'm an Itsekiri Man, A proud Deltan, and the rubbish that the Yoruba cowards are tolerating won't even happen in my state, it will be met with stiff opposition, but Tinubu said you're one.......It's like you want to start getting aggressive by the opinion of a stranger.....on that note I won't reply Both your stupid self and your stupid mentions again....Now run along, go on and fool yourself for the rest of the weekend.



You're very stupid, how can only one person have this amount of stupidity, please share it for your family so that it will go round.......

Igboho that ran to Benin Republic, is he not a Nigerian, didn't they deport him, The Yorubas that ran to Benin Republic when the Fulanis were slaughtering your family members like pigs are they not Nigerians..... Please use your senses when quoting me....This your foolishness doesn't deserve a reply from me, I just had to make this one an exception for the sake of next time you decide to unleash your foolishness.....Have a great weekend.



Look at this useless animal that thinks he is important.

You and your stupid hopes can't add an inch to my height.

Keep up this your attitude of hoping, it will soon land you and your parents in the grave.
Unfortunately, the government of Benin are Yoruba.

Infact, 2 among their coming presidential election candidates are Yoruba..

Abokis will never allow Tinubu or any other president of Nigeria to return regional government to Nigeria.

Regional government was killed in Nigeria by northern military dictators, not by Aguiyi Ironsi. Ironsi took some more powers from the regional governments but left regional government system working when he was killed.

Abokis who think they profit more than others from the existing unitary government system are more in number at the NASS, due to the excess number of mostly non viable states created in Aboki region by northern military dictators.
Tinubu or another president is not going to be a civilian dictator who can easily change this Aboki's political structure and governance system established in Nigeria.
You’re a liar..

Ironsi messes up everything because of greed. Because Igbos wanted to control the whole Nigeria by force since there land is almost next to nothing..

agabaI23:
You described what you're doing here. I asked you a question based on your statement.

Wole Soyinka has been talking about Obidients while Chima talked about the election and the processes. She never referred to anyone. Wole was talking about Obidients who you guys equate to Igbos. So do you mean that there are more Igbos in Lagos than owners of Lagos? How did PO win Lagos?

I was in Lagos in December, I went hinterland, stayed in Lekki and not even one Yoruba person told me he would vote APC. The biggest shock was at Ibeju Lekki, a hungry fisherman told me he would vote for Obi. I didn't mention any name for him. My point is that Obidients are Nigerians. You're the ones pushing ethnic agenda not PO or the Obidients.

I wonder who is the tribalist here. We talk about issues, you push tribal sentiment and yet you call us bigots. Even the Igbos reject their own of questionable character.

But like I said, just make sure your conscience is at peace with you. That's all that matters. A guilty conscience reduces the quality of life.
My conscience is so clear and I also gave my response based on your question..

I hate hypocrisy..

It’s obvious you haven’t watched the whole interview for you to claim he was talking about just obi supporters. He talked about everything! You need to go watch the interview..
