  • Africa, a continent of 54 countries and the preferred economic destination for most multinationals is faced with the challenges of good governance and leadership. These encumbrances have hindered its developmental speed and thereby subject her glorious citizens to plethora difficulties.
    In this episode, STRAIGHTalk with the Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka throws light into the concept of Leadership and Good governance in Africa. However, it encapsulates Profiteering in government, Corruption and State Pardon, Insurgency in Nigeria among other things

    These are the type of people needed in nigeria to bring about transformation, but unfortunately just as he has rightly said nigerians are not willing to be patient as well as do anything that does not involve money.

    Granted that the previous leaders had failed to deliver, does Nigeria need a law-graduate president before the political boat could remain un-rocked, before attaining a political culture, extirpating or deracinating all forms of payola?

  • @ola.akoko2254
    @ola.akoko2254 Před 11 lety +2

    I'm disappointed in the views of people like 'tlig' and 'jerry ade'. Eunan is very right, discussion at this level is for highly educated minds. I find the interview educative and straight to the point. 'tlig' and 'jerry ade' are obviously not learned enough to follow the prof's argument. 'jerry ade' should know that Soyinkas of this world don't rule, they talk. There are 100s of 1000s of profs and researchers in the US where Clintons, Obamas, Bushs, Reagans govern. So, keep to 9ja movies pls...

    I like Wole but I'd like to know if he's a real prof. Does he have a doctoral degree PhD, and where did he earn it? I've looked in Wikipedia and couldn't find this information.

      Do not mind their ignorance. He is the only Nobel winner till date in West Africa and one of about 5 in subsaharan Africa. Soyinka's accomplishments are higher than any degree

    Who told you that he is not a Professor? Did you understand what he was talking about? I doubt if you did. He approach to issues is too much above your understanding. Try and show some respect to our elders your betters. OK?

      No one expected him to match Prof's IQ. That would be expecting too much from him, even the best of us. But it was very clear that he sounded quite empty and does not have even the basic skills for an interview such as this!
