90 years old man still strong like this. My God. More Grace papa
I'm 45 years old and since I was old enough to recognize this man he hasn't looked a day older, well spoken and strong and next year he will be 90, wow
How can you be 89 years old and still this sharp and healthy. What in the world is his secret?
Aren’t Professor Wole Soyinka the one who invented Cultism in Nigeria universities? We have the Western world inventing something meaningful to life but here is the African acclaimed professor that invented cultism and Thieves. In a sane country, is Tinubu supposed to be president? A renowned Thief
My Brother... WS is an Enigma 😂
@@gideonighodalo3476 😅😅😂
@@gideonighodalo3476 Yes an Engima of cultists
@@TheTruth4Sure That one concern you... Small mind 😔
I am proud of him not giving up on his friend and Nigeria. God continue to Keep you Legend.
May God bless your health, Wole Soyinka 🙏🏻
I don japa to Cameroon where I am enjoying full electricity, good running water and good roads. Keep praising your icons even when no development is taken place.
You made a good decision. All the best in your endeavors
The water you're using, is it directly from the government or the compound borehole?
Because here in Abuja, there are waterboard water supply and there is a borehole and electricity is much more stable.
@@Southernview3k there's nothing like borehole here in Cameroon. The water is from the gorvermen supply call SNEKE.
@emanu4990, it's your right to curse these bunch of Soulless demon's in Human forms that called themselves Nigeria leader's but claiming that Cameroon has better road's than Nigeria or better than Nigeria is an insult to our beloved country Nigeria and adding to the insults of these demon's, I was in Cameroon for two months this year because my woman is a Cameroonian, electricity over there do go off every now and then but not like it often does in Nigeria, that's true, the road's over there are worse than in Nigeria, there was a day we went out and it rains that day" we were held up for Hours because all the roads were flooded, things are more expensive in Cameroon than in Nigeria especially food stuffs and the reason is because Nigerians are into more farming than the Cameroonians, my monthly internet bundle cost 20.000cfa and still wasn't sufficient, Orange network, I paid 10,000cfa for my Canal plus subscription for channels, I do not want to give all details here but I spent money when I was there!!!
@@emanu4990
Not everything you know about Cameroon. There is good road network and stable electricity in Nigeria too. It may not be 100% but at least, there's improvement.
Maybe you reside in their capital city.
Even the water the government supply is borehole.
South Africa that's advanced than Cameroon uses borehole water and waterboard from the government.
Same here in Abuja, there are waterboard that supply water to some districts of Abuja and there are some houses that have borehole.
In Lagos, Enugu and some other state, there are waterboard that supply water to some residents of the state.
At 89 years Professor Wole Soyinka is aging really well. Good for him
Like so well
I remember Corn-fessor Soyinka and Bakare visited Buhari within months of taking his oath of office over eight years ago he collected his brown envelope showered Buhari with glowing tributes went home and kept mute for eight years while Nigeria was run aground. He said nothing while the fulani herdsmen decimated his kinsmen in their farms, which led to the rise of Cheif Igboho the defender of the yorubas. Now he has come back to collect another brown envelope for another eight years.
I had respect for him during his NADECO days when he fought the Abacha regime to the end, but nowadays he is just lining his pocket and peddling influence in the corridors of power.
They say wisdom comes with age and greying hair but now I know better that money is a respecter of nobody, and that money can make and old man dance naked in the market square.
Since 1999 we have been ruled by "old or older" men and in this period China has grwon to be the second largest economy in the world. The Asian Tiger (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore) have grown in leaps and bounds. Now can someone tell me what we have acheived in Nigeria apart from so far delaying the inevitable which is a civil war
Exactly, he is representing his belly...
I said something to my cousin brother about these people he didn't listen initially; but later, he confirmed it when this man became president. This is another proof of what I told him.
Shouldn’t your cousin’s brother be your cousin too 🤷🏽♂️. 😂
Collected your xmas present. enjoy it😊
Many will disagree with you. He clearly doesn't need it. Just a journey for peace of mind.
E dey clear big big
Our real icon ❤
The Tinubu presidency must not shy away from implementing Restructuring.
True Federalism and Resource Control is the way forward in achieving a sustainable and equitable development for the regions in Nigeria.
Professor Woke Soyinka should remind Tinubu about the urgent needs to start the process from where the Jonathan government left it.
The national conference report are there to kick start it.
I could recall both President Tinubu and Prof Soyinka championed NADECO during the Abacha 's military government.
This man as usual went to full his bank account as others do
Prof. Shoyinka, should tell his Nadeco President to now implement the Restructuring they shouted about for so many years.
Sometimes it seems you people don’t have the ability to think . President don’t have the power to do then things , that’s why you have people that make constitution . It has to be discussed and agreed by house if the representatives including the people, president dint have that power, this is not military rule
@tunjicollins3677 Mr. Thinker, it was Mr. Tinubu's sing song for so many years, l repeat. Now, that he's President, he should do it. Teacher don't teache NONSENSE
@@tunjicollins3677
Tinubu has been agitating for restructuring for quite long. Now that he's the president, he should pursue it.
please we will like to hear about prof seven agenda, i believes with people like prof wole shoyinka around the president Nigeria will be great
They cut out the most important part of the video
There’s nothing Wole Soyinka has done for Nigeria except introducing Cultism. Wole Soyinka is a typical Yariba man. Bloody hypocrite
He has been around every Nigerian president. Are we great yet?
You guys cut the most important part of the video lol
Chai I hope you gave him some light into the economy and how to go about it.
CORN-FESSOR
🎉❤🎉
❤❤❤please tell us the food you eat, prof.
On one hand you adviced Him not to run and so it’s just to see an old friend, on the other hand you brought 7 point agenda .. At 89 years old what are you still doing all this for??
Where did this kind people come from, chai!??? See comment.
So because he advised him but didn't heed to advise he should kill him or boycott him???
Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion.
Don't bring your hate and bitterness to social media.
You guys need to know Nigeria is a trade union. So stopped being behaving like a loser and get over it. Tinubu is the president of Nigeria.
I know that propaganda people must respond , Wole Soyinka is a disgrace and a very useless man, now go and sleep
Soyinka will always remain an icon. You obviously don't have an idea about what this noble man has gone through on behalf of the nation.
So he should fold his arms and leave the country to the dogs like you. You're talking tough behind a computer, what have you done for your country?
As usual this man went to full his bank account as others do
I came here with the seven-point agenda that's great saying ..... Best of luck to Mr President
What Soyinka said, maybe unwittingly is that he does not criticise Nigeria presidents in their first year in office because each one has to start over from ground level, usually, even below ground level. Considering he has known all of Nigeria's past presidents and each one had to start from below ground level is a shameful indictment on the quality of leadership since independence. A succession of thieves, raiding the national budget and becoming filthy rich in the process. While the country falls further behind. He should not be friends with such crooks.
Time will TELL, Sooner or later with Patients
Wole Soyinka is an ICON who has done a lot for the democracy we are enjoying today, for the sake of small children who just come to social media and type nonsense because they don't agree with someone. This man has done well for this country and himself than some families can ever attain in 100 generations.😂😂😂
Dear Ma/Sir,
A generation is an average of 30 years. This makes 100 generations 3000 years and 3 millennia. A generation can do and achieve a lot in that time. I appreciate that Prof has achieved a lot. But please, don't undermine people and families in that manner.
@@ayoperiola693, I made my opinion known without any apology to anyone, especially those who don't know history and refuse study history. For your information the word 'some' does not generalise, so read comments well with understand before responding.
@tonyolujobi4457 Hyperbole at best!
@@ayoperiola693how did he undermine families in his comment pls?
Nigerians are evidently the most use…less people in the whole world. They love evil, lies and always turn a blind eyes when they see the truth. Zero integrity…
Birds of the same feather....
Old friend, indeed! This man's academic qualifications should also be properly scrutinised. I won't be surprised if soyinka also forged a certificate or two in the past.
I look forward for a better Nigeria.
Wole Soyinka shame on you for not speaking about the injustices going on about mazi Nnamdi kanu.
Hateful comments from Thievery Emefiele people here. We respect our elders. Good luck to you guys.
Criminals thief friends
A sell out, against moribound convention my foot.
Una be the same thing.,...
Rest in peace Kofi Annan
Please, where is Kofi Annan?
This is Prof Wole Soyinka.
Let's mentor TINUBU together. Let's make Nigeria great again
Leopard doesn't shed their skin,even when they are old and haggard,cos is then they actually reveal their true self, am only regretting that i once respected this man, probably cos he was hiding who he is, but time is ruuning out as he keep aging ,he can no longer hide who he truely is---such a pity.i remeber reading Achebes and his book in Harvard ,when i was trying to do some research in your country,but looking bzck, am looking for that man that wrote that book.
Folks like u are not even fit enough to untie Prof SOYINKA'S shoes.
They are talking about a real Nigeria Sir wole
Who cares what you think of great wole Soyinka. You’re a nobody, just a faceless coward behind a keyboard filled with tribalism and hatred. Nonsense, who cares who u respect , faceless keyboard warrior
Meaning?
He is an old corrupt friend
May BAT succeed, may Nigeria succeed, amin
Sorry for you.
Dreamer, with what he has done so far and they pain Nigerians are going through?
Wake and smell the coffee. 😂
I am just praying, my people. Just praying. Don't let bitterness and negativity weigh you down you can't see, hear, or hope for good. There is more to life. Positivity overcomes negativity all the time just like sunshine overcomes darkness. Stay positive
@@successfulpeople
It is only in Nigeria that they prayer for their thieving leaders that turn them into destitute, while other sane nations hold their leaders accountable.
Keep on praying, while other nations are using the time for productivity
He would only succeed if the election was not rigged for him but if the election was rigged on his behalf he will failed woefully more than Buhari. He has started failing what do you expect from a certified certificate forger and a drug lord Presidiot . He has nothing upstairs than to bribe and forge certificate. Very very useless shameless old man with useless oloriburuku supporters like you.
You guys expect positive outcomes from a negative process to leadership isn't it? LIFE IS INPUT EQUAL OUTPUT!
Bla bla bla.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
For me Tinubu is always lucky,Now the president,masses are massively suffering,reduce fuel price and improve the living standards of the people.
Giving Tinubu 7point agenda to carry out is like, giving a Lion a life Goat to keep for you for a decade. Tinubu can not give what he doesn't have. Thinking that BAT will fix Nigeria is the greatest delusion.
Soyinka went for $$$
@breezeincampus7671 "Soyinka went for $$$?!" Very appalling when some people hide behind their pc and spew venom and incoherent ideas on social media. If you cannot even trust WS to impart some words of wisdom to BAAT, after all that he has done and stood for in Nigeria, who can you trust in Nigeria? WS is not a politician, never has been nor has he shown any sympathy for corrupt Nigerian leaders. Perhaps, you are very young and do not know any better. I am in my mid 60, not a Yoruba person and I know what I am writing about. Please don't get on social media and write BS about a personality that the vast majority of Nigerians, irrespective of ethnicity, know too well. Thank you.
Soyinka is one of the people destroying this country.They have never been patriotic.They only fight for their belly.He has been given handout
There’s nothing Wole Soyinka has done for Nigeria except introducing Cultism. Wole Soyinka is a typical Yariba man. Bloody hypocrite
But the at least millions of people rejected Obi and Atiku for Tinubu. So they knew what they saw in him
Dey play. Millions of who?😂 I hope you’re in Nigeria now and standing on your stolen mandate
Tinibu can't u call your friend towards Allah... grey hair still foreshaking Allah... may Allah guide Soyinka
Wole Soyinka is one of the criminals destroying Nigeria for his own selfish interests
Please how? Because he did not support Obi right or because he told Datti a pure facts?
The evil past of the so called Nigeria without meaning is holding Nigeria and Nigeria will not progress or developed on till the Nigeria other tribes let 1967/70 go their own way and say a word of forgiveness to Nigeria other tribes if not let Nigeria pray and fast as usual no tomorrow or hope for in evil Nigeria without meaning
Is it Nobel laureate that gives him impetus to feel he has a duty to relate with heads of state in Nigeria or is it the traditional request for his palms to be greasesd so he won't make governance hard for them? Why does he feel he is barometer of god governance, had he he served ever before on squarely put was he able to effectively run a family? We believe charity begins at home! Then where did he derive the nebulous moral barometer to advice them, ... ? It worries me strongly , can't understand this absurdity. I beg I won sleep!
Soyinka contributed to the mess Nigeria is today, his support for Tinubu and his family is a disappointment to all
Should you not be listening your prime minister (Simon E kpa) Christmas message
visiting a bullion van most corrupt self impose Nigeria president is a shame. where is the integrity
Eyah. Wailer and jealousy is that you ? Pele
At this point. The only thing this knows is English and his pocket money from his friend thief Tinubu
Liar!!!!
Time for soyinka to have part of the national either by legit or otherwise because he had remained on the fence while others enriches themselves.
Even him Soyinka knew the zoo is beyond repair
So why are u so concerned about the zoo?
You sound dumb asking that question,cos you know the answer, a currupt on any level supports another currupt ---always, is in your blood, cos you are devoid of truth and reality.
@@okeoja4447 Why are you not?
@@blockthis08 can u pls elaborate your question
@@okeoja4447Yes ooo you are not from the zoo. Go back to your place that is not a zo. Now you start crying about marginalization. Leave the zoo now.
There is nothing the so called Tinubu will do he wants to register his name as the second yoruba person to be the president of the so called Nigeria without meaning in yoruba language
Between the Nobel Laureaute and SLS, I wonder who is more sanctimonious
Mumu Nation
For him to be supporting Tinubu, he must have been a man of questionable character in the past. He might not be what we think he is.
He has being a man of queationable character in his entire life.
