Nobel Laurete, Wole Soyinka, eulogises Bola Tinubu

[@frankakosa822]

No matter how you castigate the Laureate, he was and still remains the conscience of this troubled country. He understands and respects the fact that there is no perfect being but opinioted people.

Soyinka's Nobel price aword must be returned

That great mind who penned some of the greatest epics of the twentieth century century has lost his way. Sad.

[@muhammedmuniru9840]

Lost his ways because he didn't support your political views and lies😂😂😂 Obingos after 100 una go heal laslas😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@osenimmusa2723]

May Bola Tinubu remain blessed by the power of the most high God Amen Thank You lord for his kindness Amen

[@annefranciselizabeth3840]

Devil (not God) lifts wicked people (like Hitler, Idi Amin, Sani Abacha) to do his will. Thiefnubu is the devil's workshop and WITH YOUR SUPPORT he will ruin you and everything important to you. So you better start praying to any God you worship that the courts will sweep the rubbish called Thiefnubu into the dustbin of history. Otherwise a few weeks after May 29 you will be lamenting more than those of us who warned you Agbadomites and Cassavarians against the Asinwin whom you foolishly call Asiwaju.

You have spoken well, my mentor tell it to their face How it is, without fear or favour. The government of the day has failed us. We will vote them out, we are voting AAC.

Just watching this now in 2023 I just wish, we can hear him say how presently things are now.... Smiles 😊

[@onyemaomessah-bo6gj]

Well I've been waiting for him to say something too, but he just recently said he usually allows one year before uttering words. I'm still waiting.

[@TheGreatCommission..]

Well done African icon...

[@olasunkanmioluwagbamigbe6058]

This's quite paradoxical, no matter from what angle one look at the issue. Who wil ever think that our own dear professor will come to honor and eulogize Tinubu. What's the difference between Obasanjo (whom our dear professor hate with passion) and the greedy Tinubu. The gesture beat me hollow Prof

[@fataiadegbenro984]

When you failed to enact your own narrative rather follow others you'll definitely not get the paradox... Tinubu is an icon and a legend and a true Democrat

[@annefranciselizabeth3840]

Pa Soyinka (WS) has been corn-promised and corn-fused. Bola Thiefnubu (BT) has been giving WS "agbado" since NADECO days. WS is now nothing more than a mouthpiece of BT - grand-master of corruption, thuggery, electoral manipulation & do-or-die politics. The fact that BT could buy a man as self-righteous as WS is an indication of how bottomless BT's pocket has become since BT started fleecing Lagos decades ago. The man has finally died in WS. It is a pity.

[@WilliamsDibie]

Prof, Oluwole Soyinka is only looking for a State Burial should in-case he joint his Ancestors.

[@UsmanImam-h9q]

The reality has been revealed that Tinubu is nothing but empty head.

[@femiodunsi4119]

@ truthnlogic reigns I find your castigtion of Soyinka inappropriate and I feel compelled to respond. About Soyinka's respect for Tinubu been selfish and reflective of personal gains: No! The first anecdote Soyinka gave was of Bola Tinubu, castigate him as we all do today, been an active part of the pro-democracy struggle. Every struggle/revolution needs money and Bola Tinubu helped provide it. Siimple! This was what Soyinka alluded to. And his comments are not reflective of personal gain. The money was used for the pro-democracy activism. Indeed the direct product of the "personal gain" you talk about is the collective democracy all Nigerians gained in 1999. The second story about Remi Tinubu bringing to Soyinka's spartan residence on his arrival from exile pots, pans and a fridge should mean little. These people are human after all! Anyone who knows any history should clearly see that Soyinka has been one of the most selfless individuals of reckoning the country has alive today. Soyinka has earned respect as been selfless struggle after struggle, government after government, pre and post independence. Even Gani sir, would not utter that Soyinka is or was selfish. It doesn't add up. About nobility, as far as I know, neither Falana nor Soyinka can claim nobility by birth. Or what kind of nobility do you speak about? In summary, Soyinka has earned and deserves respect.He cannot be said to selfish based antecedents and certainly not because of this 10 minute video.

[@josephodiase174]

Strange that tinubu is worth 30 plus billion from taxes.. Yet, the bloodline is of slavery ect.. For Prof soyinka been a fighter of injustice, corruption , and oppression.. Seems a Contradiction..

[@mosobalajejolaoye8397]

It is not surprising at all that you eulogized Leader Tinubu you being a prominent genius using your sixth sense superlatively and I hope that your excellent contribution will let the Southern citizens shun sabotage and support the President elect JAGABAN in making Nigeria agricultural and industrial and no more religious. Nigeria remains RRPP: richest in religion, poorest in production despite government laudable efforts. Very bad !

[@philreins7240]

His respect for Bola Tinubu is very selfish, because everything he said about Tinubu is what he personally gained. This does not in anyway justifies why Tinubu has converted Lagos to his personal property. I have noticed something strange about most yoruba supposed noble men like Wole & Falana they have never castigated tinubu for corrupt. Men like Gani did, but this supposed noble men, turn a blind eyes.

[@sundayafolabi1248]

...hmmm.. beautiful ones are not yet born...

[@sweetfemo]

speaking of Tinubu being a corrupt person, Soyinka is not a politician, he's just a poet and playwright.. and we have diff reasons for liking individuals, he just like d guy for whatever reason best known to him...so he's not selfish

[@shakiruadewale2052]

truthnlogic reigns , you are biased, in your comment, i know U are IGBO man

[@josephodiase174]

Tinubu family are criminals of crimes against humanity.. Slavery and robbery of the people wealth and government... One of the true reasons nigeria is underdeveloped.. It beats me, why Prof soyinka would not be direct regarding this.. 30 billion plus of state money..

[@josephodiase174]

@@sundayafolabi1248 seems hypocritical for the Professor that stood against oppression, corruption ect.. To sit with one of the biggest thieves of the century, a bloodline that sold millions into slavery ect.. Still stealing from the people and government.. A megalomania.. He is the owner of territory of lagos state.. Nasty.
