Prof. Wole Soyinka is a sage and he is projecting a nimble mind characteristic of Divinity-Philosopher Oduduwa. Africans in Africa and Africans in Diaspora should learn a lot from his repertoire of sagacity.

Oh look, another insecure white person seeing an intelligent black person. Clearly you realize he's smarter than you, and you find it difficult to swallow. Its painfully obvious.

What a different country Nigeria, would be if they chose leaders like this. Sadly, in 60 years I’ve never heard of him to this moment. American media is too busy pumping its own agenda to enlighten us with the words of the wise.

Peoples are writing things out of ignorance, I wanna say don't judge Islam base on what an individual Muslim does or what Muslims community does, you can judge islam based on authentic sources that is the glorious qur'an and the authentic hadiths.

How does a secular government sponsor religious pilgrimages while others live in abject poverty? Nonsense! Btw, Fela was not a problem maker. He was a freedom fighter in every way as you're professor, just the methodology was different.

What I'm confused? You have heard of white South Africans and White North Africans right? He was the first black winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. Changing this to West African is definitely not the same as first black winner. This is turning into a rant; I'll let you do your research.

By the time this interview was shot, I was a little boy. Well Mr wole Soyinka, boko haram has not done Nigeria any good. Now, Nigeria is more divided than what one can ever imagine. Nigeria is no longer recognized as a country to some Nigerians, in fact they call her zoo. All we are asking for is to divide Nigeria. The Northerners are wolfs and southerners are the lions. By what right does wolfs judge the lions?
