Vote for the most competent man In Nigeria
BOLA AHMED TINUBU
VOTE APC

How is Tinubu the most competent man in Nigeria? Do you care to explain?

Are you saying Tinubu is a talent hunter? Which talent did he hunt? Is it buhari?

How will tinubu provide security? He was very vocal against Jonathan when it came to security. Why has he been silent in condemning buhari on the same security issue?

How will tinubu provide quality education? His last two children schooled in Berkeley school of music in London. Why didn't he send his kids to LASU?

Which bridge is he building and what technocratic leadership is he providing?

How is going to create wealth? Who is he creating the wealth for? Can you tell us about alpha beta?

How will he make the nigerian economy robust?

One of my favorite authors, about whom, by a coincidence, I had cause to write quite recently, was CLR James, author of The Black Jacobins, Beyond A Boundary etc. etc. I called him my ideological uncle. He suffered from Parkinson’s Disease, but remained alert, lucid and combative for decades after the onset of the disease. We interacted politically at the Tanzanian pan-African Congress, the Dakar Festival of Negro Arts and a number of other cultural and political fora. We met frequently in his lifetime, dined together in restaurants, despite his challenge. it would be unthinkable, and a desecration of his memory to be part of any activity that mocked his affliction

what a way to tell us that Tinubu suffers from Parkinson's Disease.
At least there's no denial.

Nice one

Soyinka should advise Tinubu to go and rest and loom after his health. Nigerians are tired of old, corrupt and sick leaders who will use our collective patrimony in treating their ailment abroad while while the ordinary citizen can't access good health care at home.

Good leaders should listen to the voice of the people. A culture that can't state the true state of things is not a good one.

Of course you can laugh, but that has not in anyway helped Nigeria's economy, rather he brought in Ali baba and the 40 thieves to empty our treasury.

Such rubbish cannot happen in a civilized world.

When Politics Become Morality Play

People are doing their best to beat Tinubu, not on the election arena, but in the very tight spaces of sensitivity: resorting to biases. Ageism, tribalism, class and on and on. Politics, I've often stated on this medium, is about choices, divergence of views and the pluralism of ideas.

When did the mockery of people's conditions or disability become a norm, a way of scoring cheap political points? We've lost our souls as a people

CLR James that WS quoted, a pan- Africanist, was referenced by Edward Said, a Palestinian intellectual in his Reith lectures, The Exilic Displacement, in 1993. His disabilities didn't not prevent his work from becoming popular.

Why didn't Soyinka scold Aregbesola when he made a similar remark on Tinubu a short while ago. People like Soyinka a tacitly behind the ambition of Tinubu. We saw the role he played in the run off to 2015 election. He is in the same category with Tunde Bakare. At least today everyone knows Tunde Bakare has been a member of APC while forming to be an activist.

Nigeria herself is sick, so we don't need a sick president. This is a simple message by Nigerian youths who are victims of wicked and and weak leadership.

In the video, the Pyrates’ , who are marking the 70th anniversary of the group this year, donned their traditional red and white attire, and sang a song about a presidential candidate whose “hands and feet are shaking, yet he is saying ‘it is my turn.’”
This does not read like what Prof. Wole Soyinka wrote.
It looks like a fake statement.
Not by Soyinka.
