Soyinka said the result of the Osun election showed that APC was punished for the act of sacrilege.

He said it was shocking that the APC could make someone who was implicated in Ige’s murder one of its executives.“When the results began to come in, I had just returned . It was like a welcome present because I saw that party being punished for that act of sacrilege,” he said. “The two parties have become very confusing to start with.
