According to Professor Wole Soyinka, "Only four sets of people can vote for the PDP:

(1) Those who are intellectually blind,

(2) those who are blinded by ethnicity,

(3) those who are blinded by corruption and therefore afraid of the unknown, should power change hands, &

(4) those who are suffering from a combination of the above terminal sicknesses"

Only one set of people still listen to Wole Soyinka - those who worship senility.

The challenge is our idea of democracy which is "where do I get ny bread buttered" and not who can govern better.

The PDP is not a great party and to that extent the OP is right, but what is the alternative?

Gham!
Some wise men are fools... e.g Unilag prof.

Wole Soyinka-- A noble Winner, A human Activist, A hero, A Scholar, A Professor, An Achiever and many more. Who can beat these in Nigeria?

Before nko?, isn't his son a serving commissioner in Amosuns APC government. Wole Soyinka has for long ceased to be a national conscience. He's never seen anything wrong in APC, & he's always against PDP. This is not how a Yoruba elder behaves. Agbo ejo enikan da, agba osika ni. Let him enrol in OBJs school of wisdom. OBJ criticizes both d PDP & d APC, & that's y he still earns the respect of both sides.

Then he can take his opinion and shove it

You are such a big _retard! Google up some of Soyinka's anti-Buhari topics, buffoon.

You are beyond daft. Wole Soyinka was a very big OBJ critic

What differenciates you from the poster you quoted?

Your sound like father didn't train you well....get a life... maybe your father is not upto wole sonyinka doesn't mean that someone else father won't be above him get dat in ya empty skull

Our own WS is speaking Greek to us. May God help us who have Faith to understand ourselves.

He only started critisizing Obasanjo after his close friend Bola Ige was killed.

well well if really he said that,thats his business am gonna vote for GEJ he can put me in one of those list but hey what he thinks of me doesn't matter afterall he didn't make me and my rights as a Nigerian citizen doesn't belong to him.

My dear, this epitomized the level of moral values standard or decadency in our society. If a respectable citizens as Prof. Wole Soyinka can not make an unbiased, unsentimental and constructive criticism/judgment, then what do you expect from our youths?

See worshipper . Is this insult ? When we get old most people will also naturally become senile. I think Wole Soyinka is achieving that downhill journey

someone will expect me to take this man serious... He was brought to Ekiti to commission 3.3billion governor's house. The said house was built with borrowed capital in a state where no company exist for able men and women to work and earn a living.

I think its high time we started questionning these elder's philosophy. They will never be part of our future. They were responsible for our sorry state of things. They built this fake country on a gun of powder that's about to explode. They may not be around to see the wreckage of this country.

The revolution that will follow this time will be irresistably collective....

And the (5th) set will vote APC?

The professor is right on point!!

It amaze me when an intellect like Soyinka cant differentiate voting for a party from voting for an Individual.
GEJ is the man- under any platform.
GEJ till 2019.

PDP has not always lived up to expectation. They are not a great political party by world class standard.

Jonathan Goodluck is not a charismatic leader nor a great leader!

But it is too easy to criticise PDP in isolation without suggesting who the alternative is.

Compared to Democrats or Republicans in USA, PDP is rubbish! But I will vote PDP 10 times before APC and I will also vote Jonathan 100 times before Buhari.

So the Professor has to provide what in his wisdom is a relative assessment of PDP in a Nigerian context. You can't just benchmark PDP against nothing and say " do not vote PDP".

Please who do we vote instead?
