Soyinka speaking on a BBC programme, “Hard Talk.” anchored by Zeinab Badawi, Soyinka said the dreams people of his generation had about the country have not materialised.Soyinka said: “Yes, I believe so. “I compare today with dreams and aspirations we had when we all rushed home after studies abroad. We considered ourselves the renaissance people that are going to lift the continent to world standards, competitors anywhere. It hasn’t happened.
“General Buhari didn’t really win the first election, he won by default. It was impossible to continue with Jonathan ,” “But in any case, I kept emphasising that Nigerians had a very difficult choice and as I said, It was between the devil and the deep blue sea.”Asked if he believes that salvation of Nigeria lies in the hand of the young
‘When we started encouraging the young people to come out there was one person spearheading the movement, they could have come out with a consensus candidate, but the movement one of the old … hijacked the movement simply because he wanted to be at head of government.Soyinka said: ‘Now we get to the larger problem and at the heart of it indisputably, we have the issue of CORRUPTION it is a humongous issue.
Not d same pls,but worse,u need to cut dat ur hair make air torch ur skull
No
So who behave like osibanjo?
Soyinka has either lost touch with reality or is labouring to justify his foolishness for supporting Buhari. Any how e be, less-than-sound judgement is involved!
prof. soyinka should tell nigerians what jonathan did rightly. soyinka always finding fault, i think he should make himself available come 2023 and lets see what he has to offer
This man if u want to talk about this government, don't mention Jonathan
Our General will tell us to give him 50days and he will eradicate Boko Haram yet they will engage in trade by barter to free some chibok girls, a terrible state of insecurity
Your view, sir suggests that something intrinsic & more than one man's problem. Talk they say is cheap, but being on the driver's seat is something else. Sir when you masterminded the establishment of FRSC did u ever imagine it would become harvester of deaths on Nigerian Roads?
Wrong they can never behave alike. Light and darkness can't have comperism. Soyinka is losing some grip nots in his brain, he is old now and often think like a child.
No sir... Worse than..
Can someone please tell this man called Soyinka to leave our Hero of Democracy (GEJ) out of this?
I am a spiritual man, help people in terms of instant money, luck, marriage problem and lot more, to see and no more just call or WhatsApp me on +2347038049362
When Elders are not forthright, then We are finished. Where is Jonathan coming in on Buhari's inability to curb the menace of Herdsmen. Soyinka was quick to give Buhari pass mark on the fight against corruption. Instead of scoring him low on this, it became an object of contrast
Soyinka I lost my respect for you since
Buhari is worse and is next to Abacha his former boss in brutality in the name of leadership No evil will ever befall Nigeria worse than PMB
Don't drag Jonathan... Don't compare sleep to death.
Shameless Soyinka can't criticise Buhari without drawing GEJ out for crucifixion. When you take a gift from the Devil, you become his agent. Obsession over GEJ will kill all Buharideens.
See my beloved, usually hard stanced Wole beating about the bush. This administration can indeed make a Lion to eat grass!
Soyinka should be guided by his utterances, there were not this much impunity killings during Jonathan Years
Soyinka does not know what he is talking about. Let him go and ask Sheik Gumi. Jonathan was cleansing them from the bushes.
How can a prof of this stature be comparing life with death. Jonathan is a million times better than Buhari. Stop smearing his good name sir.
Thanks my Prof

The man you told us that he have the capacity to end Boko Haram, the he has fought first and second world war? And that he was general commanding Nigeria civil war? Look at where your education has put Nigeria today.
Why Buhari never give this man contract nah 🤷🏾♂️
Some people are seriously looking for redemption.
It is a recurring decimal for Buharig supporters to always use GEJ to measure the clueless Buharig, its so difficult for them to say that buharig has failed , instead they use Gej as a cover, Prof. Be bold enough to have your say, at your age you are permitted to say the truth .
This old man sha want to stay relevant
Campaign after election..... Where was He since 2016? They will soon knock at your door. You never see anything o
Your insulting Gej now..no lemme say your behavior be like Pmb own
Don’t even try to call GEJonathan name ☹️or are you trying to balance the equation so that Buhari will not come for you 🤷♂️🤣🤣

No one is free in terms of leadership in Nigeria.
Worst than Jonathan
