Nobel laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka, has denied making some statements credited to him on the socio-political and economic situation of the country.
The denial was issued by Soyinka’s media aide, Mr. Jahman Anikulapo insisting that the statements were made by mischief makers who he said had become more daring, using the social media.
The statement by Jahman Anikulapo reads:
CAVEAT EMPTOR:
This is to serve notice that the words, phrases or ideas published below which have been circulating of late in the social media space were NEVER uttered or issued by Professor Wole Soyinka.
The texts are obviously the works of mischief-makers, who seem to have become more daring these days, for whatever reason(s).
I have Professor Soyinka’s directives to refute the entire texts.”
Some of the statements Soyinka wants the general public to disregard as coming from him read:
Prof. Wole Soyinka:
If APC is not the answer to our Problems, there is no reason going back to the instigators of the problem.
I’m not a politician but I would do everything not to have PDP in Government in Nigeria.
The greatest tragedy that can befall a nation is for her citizens to suffer collective amnesia. I believe PDP believes Nigerians have short memories, if not, Ibori would not have been included in their convention committee and Jonathan would not have been allowed to talk (He ended up indicting himself as usual anyway).
For those who may have forgotten, kindly joggle your memories with the following words on marble and you will agree with me that what happened in Eagle square on Saturday was nothing but gathering of rogues.
Happy reading:
- I acted based on Jonathan’s instruction – Dasuki
- I didn’t give order – Jonathan
- I collected 350M from Dasuki for consultation – Iyorchia Ayu
- I only collected $30,000 from Dasuki not N100m – Bode George
- I got N4.6b from Dasuki for spiritual purposes – Bafarawa
- I got N650M from Dasuki for my Abuja burnt office – Thisday Obaigbena.
- I got N2.1b from Dasuki for publicity – Dokpesi
- I got another N100m from Yuguda he didn’t tell me from where – Bafarawa.
- I gave N100m each to Odili, Jim Nwobodo Bode George and others – Yuguda
- The president asked me to change N10B to foreign currency for PDP delegates – Dasuki
- My boss asked me to get $11M from the CBN – Dasuki’s account officer.
- I got order from above to pay Tompolo N13B for Maritime university land. – Nimasa DG.
- 950m was shared in my house — Shekarau
With all this looting and many more revealed, some people are still shouting no sign of change yet, they even say it’s political persecution.
But I believe, it is the right thing to do.
If you believe too, send this to other people to garner more support for the fight against corruption and looting in our nation. There must be consequences for such crimes otherwise Nigeria will not develop.
