Steal it,grab it,run with it, with no plan for Nigeria, but its one of our own let's support him even if he stole the mandate..Good morning proff. BIAFRA NOW NOW
I'm in support of this. Power needs to be decentralized so that each region and by extension state government can have more control over her resources and who has access to them. The indigenes of these states will also be forced to hold their Governors,Senators,HoR,LG Chairmen accountable instead of migrating to states that are better governed, indirectly giving free passes to repeated failed state governments. The devolution of power to subnationals also ensures conservationism.
Speeches in inuendos at this critical period in Nigeria is treacherous and cowardly.its unacceptable too.the man dies in the person who treacherouly keeps silent in the face of oppression and suppression😢
@@sulaakYes because he supported Tiefnubu who is leading Nigeria to a disaster. Now he is basically talking the Aburi accord in another language. The problem with you Yorubas is that you are too tribalistic. You are better off managing your own Oduduwa country with no other ethnic group there for you to be tribalistic against...
All this grammar is unnecessary. Go straight to the point. People are hungry and jobless. People are afraid to travel and to go to their farms. Talk from your heart and not your head, sir. Tell Tinubu to reduce the suffering of the people.
Just because he didn’t go to the direction that favors you, right? Find your way to the level of the recognition he has first, then see how much trust you can earn from people.
Please take what Wole Soyinka is saying and place it in the trash can where it rightly belongs. Nothing he has ever said that inspired the youth. Maybe he could inspire to right a book . He is simply an educated tribalist with no inspirational content.
He was in jail for supporting Biafra. he is a man of realist. Ekection is over. And fact remain that, your Obi never won the election. And I swear with my life for that claim. You people should stol your Igbo centrist, and stop anti other ethnic affection,that always create hatred for your igbo ethnic.
Decentralization or State control, where each State develops their resources, and controls 100% of their resource revenue is the only way Nigerian economy will diversify, create economic opportunities, and rescue Nigeria from further descent into insecurity and chaos. That is the practice in advanced economies. Instead, Nigeria crippled itself with centralized economic system that makes every State equal, thereby killing progress, and nationalizing poverty.
Wole Soyinka is one of the young men in this country, that I; Lord EDEM have great respect for, even with this statement he has made. Am very happy now.
We are in full support of an all-time father figure. Sir pls help us push on the case of state policing. Security is paramount also the issues of financial empowerment of the masses/grants etc to create businesses. Thank you
I listened to him for the first 15mins and can confidently say he failed as a revered literary giant and communicator. He could have saved us all that cerebral torture. That mental chase around a protracted verbal exercise in academic elitism was not necessary.
If the economies of the United States, Canada or Germany were structured like Nigeria's, they, too, would be failed States like Nigeria. We are doing it WRONG!!! Everything is upside-down, starting from our over-centralized economic structure. When I discuss this topic with Nigerians living in Nigeria, they would argue with me because they read books and obtained Masters Degree. The reality is not quite the same as text books. In fact, if you relocate to advanced countries, and want to understand the economic system, it will take you more than 10 years to grasp the nuances of Advanced economies.
I understand, comprehend, speak, and write the English language......parharps even more than an average Englishman does. But, I'd appreciate it if someone out there can translate, or interpret what Soyinka was saying here. I have absolutely no clue what all of his "mumbo jumbo" was all about. Soyinka should've realized that the ordinary hungry Nigerian on the street wouldn't understand/ relate to all dis oyinbo wey him dey blow. Yeah, I'm not saying that he doesn't mean well. I'm simply saying..... Nigerians no understand all dis grammar. Soyinka should've made this address in broken English.
The irony is that the English native speakers themselves do not speak or listen to long grammer aka ogonogo oyibo which they derisively call "gobbledegook". Even the highly educated ones are campaigning for plain English whereas in Nigeria,'s alternate universe, the opposite is the case: the more you obfuscate, the cleverer you are assumed to be.
Beyond rhetorics is the moral consistency of dealing with corruption in Nigeria. We all remember during president Jonathan’s administration all manner of people had the audacity to say whatever they liked but now, most of those people have now lost their tongues to speak truth to power. This is part of the irony of life in Nigeria. In all of these, time remains the faithful arbiter of truth when we fail to judge the facts correctly. The circle of evil and injustice simply repeats rhythmically in a culture where truth remains elusive.

Because 5 military officers of a certain tribe in Nigeria planned and executed a first military coup d'etat in Nigeria that obviously took more lives from other tribes than their own tribe, if any. They claimed it was to restore the kind of governing order they'd like to see after all the turmoil from the political class. It turned out another certain tribe in Nigeria lost more lives in the coup d'etat and decided to strike back 6 months later.
