OPINION BY LOUIS ODION: Between Kongi and the scions of Mussolini-Hitler | TheCable

in an age of lazy social media in which many don’t read or think deeply. His endorsement of my 2019 presidential candidacy in my short-lived but impactful foray into Nigerian electoral politics remains one of the greatest honours of my life. I view very dimly any criticism of him simply because he’s objective. He survived dictators. He will survive you.”

Of course, it wasn’t only the Labour Party candidate that received a full measure of Professor Soyinka’s caustic tongue. The literary giant was equally unsparing of both candidates of APC and PDP while fielding questions on a wide range of national issues. However, the most uncouth, vile reactions have been pouring in only from one corner. But the one I consider the unkindest cut is the insinuation of ethnic bias against Soyinka by a converging mob.

“We participated in handshakes across Nigeria, where some candidates presented their briefs. Among others, I delivered a keynote address. We watched television interviews. We have exchanged notes with highly respected international civil servants.

If my recollection is correct, my friend and brother, Sowore didn’t like the idea and so decided to go solo. He had the distinction of ending up as the third runner-up to President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2019 polls. After the polls, I remember I had called Yele up and congratulated him on the “feat” and encouraged him to see himself as very, very promising for the future.

If you keep fighting progress, you will be on the wrong side of history. ENO.

Stupid write up for stomach infrastructure.

This life no balance. Many prominent Nigerians no care about the country but just their pockets. Soyinka judge this urself

not even your shadow takes you serious anymore
