Am Igbo and I was really angry when I read that Wole Soyinka made such inciting and annoying comments but I never commented as the insults went on. I wanted to come against Soyinka if I fail to hear his position on such allegation after 4 days. Now that he had cleared himself, it's also proper for my people to retract their insults here.

On behalf of Igbos and other Nigerians that received Soyinka's alleged comment against Igbos voting convictions and became highly offended at the Professor - I say, we regret the error in judgment and all the insults meted on your person, and we apologize for the hurt our poor judgment might have caused you.

Now, this not about Soyinka, the elections are over but Nigerians are still blaming themselves for voting base on their convictions. To question anyone for voting base on his conviction is retrogressive. This was the only Presidential Election in the history of Nigeria where people castigate themselves for voting who they wanted. There is no love among Nigerians of all tribes, and it has nothing to do with one tribe and this must stop.

I understand that some Yorubas {not all} supported Soyinka's alleged comment and it's wrong, but we only apologized to an innocent Prof {Soyinka} and not Yorubas as a whole.

I support you.

Well its understandable

Guy. Isi adiro gi mma, ibu ezigbo anuofia. Who cares if the news was fake?

The deed is done already... Words when spoken can't be taken back again... The Cable news agency should apologize to him not us...

Surely the fact that the news was fake is absolutely central to reactions to it. Unless you just like acting like a hyper-sensitive pregnant woman reacting emotionally to fabricated statements.

The yoruba should not us becos the cable that brougth the news are yorubas

the slowpokes should apologize...

you are mentally deranged. You need to work on your IQ. The Yorubas have been hating us since time immemorial so anything we hear they said must be true.

Yellobas on this forum who was defending and supporting him should as well render apologies to us

Just imagine how u are reasoning, like a Little baby girl

Yoruba irritants spreading hate while fanning the embers of discord since the elections should apologise not just to Wole for dragging his name deep into their gutter of ethnic hate but to all Nigerians for their relentless efforts at elevating pettiness to the pantheon of politics in this country. With Jonathans example, this is supposed to be a new era, but if it is not one deranged oba running amock, it is a drug-lord/political leader desperately scheming to sideline igbos thereby creating a tense atmosphere capable of encouraging tribal confrontations. As far as I can see, the typical south westerner is typically self centered and wallows in abject parochialism. Wole should apologise to the igbo for relentless/rampaging idiocy of this yoruba generation in their relationship with the igbo. Untill then, no apologies from this quarters!

.

You myopic lots are rather the children of hate and anger. .. you have now believe the authenticity of TheCable news apology to soyinka, but expect igbos not to have believe TheCable's previous news.

Honestly, you yorubas are pathetic lots. So myopic in all respect.

Grow up and get sense. If your home training was a mess, then you deserves an apology from me for telling you "grow up and get sense." I am sorry for telling you that man.

Ibu onye Igbo, mana abugim?

Who talks like this?.

You apologised to Prof(Shoyinka), that is good. Why run your mouth further on Yoruba? Are you a clueless basketmouth or a koboless Biafra actor(actress)? Nigeria is burning and you are yawning!!!!

YOU AND OTHER YORUBA BIGOTED CLOWNS WHO DEFENDED THE FALSEHOOD ARE THE ONLY PERSONS WHO HAVE POOR JUDGEMENT. WHY MUST NGENE UKWENU AND OTHER YORUBA CLOWNS PROMOTE NEWS THEY ARE NOT SURE OF ?

yes EUROBOMBER: Fellow Nigerians, I have taken time to study recent happenings in our nation before and after the elections and I have come to conclude that there is a grand plan to start some kind of war in Nigeria. Some people thought that the last presidential election was going to be the last straw to break the camel's back but are still in shock that the presidential election has been conducted and Nigeria is still at peace even with the incumbent losing the election. Discerning minds can see that a pattern has been set to overheat the system especially by generating so much hatred and tension between the Igbo and the Yoruba. The rate at which it is going it is looking like one week one trouble. The pattern is that there is usually a provocative comment (alleged or true) made by a prominent Yoruba and somehow this is fed to the public and when the get to know of such comments, they become overwhelmed with anger. Just check: Before all these started, recall that a Twitter account was identified where a young man was calling for the killing of all the Igbos. Now I believe that the picture shown on that twitter account might even be that of someone that died many years ago. That twitter account was most likely created by the wicked forces outside Nigeria that intend to spark of a bloody ethnic conflict in Nigeria. 1. The case of the Yoruba Oba of Lagos-HRH Oba Akiolu where the Igbos were threatened with death in the Lagos lagoon. 2. The case of the Yoruba cardiologist in the US where a call for genocide against the Igbo was seen on his facebook page. (He says his account was hacked) 3. Most recently the case of the Yoruba Nobel Laureate-Prof Wole Soyinka released by the Cables revealing some provocative comments about the Igbo. I want every intelligent mind to observe this, in the case of Dr Ariyo, he said his account was hacked and I am inclined to believe that this is true. The people behind this agenda to set Nigeria on fire are most likely the same people that used his facebook account to post such hate words against the Igbo. These are the same people that opened that twitter account I mentioned earlier where a call to kill all Igbos was made. Look at the case of Prof Wole Soyinka too, how can an organisation like the Cable release such hate speech and tagging it to this man if not that some powerful forces were behind such. It is this same group of people that want Nigerians to start killing one another that used the Cables site to release that speech. Wole Soyinka himself has denied ever making such comments. My Igbo and Yoruba brothers, please wake up and see that there are powerful forces pulling the strings underground to cause hatred between us and the agenda is to take it to a level where it will be too much to bear and violence would be the only solution. The forces behind this ultimately want a massive show of bloodshed in Nigeria starting with the Igbo vs Yoruba. Some people initially thought that the boko haram problem up north would start a religious war in Nigeria especially when churches were been blown to pieces every week but that failed. They later on resorted to attacking Muslims in the north even in their mosques to see if that would anger the muslims enough to start a massive campaign of violence against Christians but that also failed. Let us all be wise and open our eyes, these forces plotting to plunge Nigeria into war are likely operating outside Nigeria. The boko haram option in Northern Nigeria failed to start the needed Christian vs Muslim war and boko haram is gradually winding down activities. Let us continue to pray for this nation and keep our emotions in check so that we do not witness a sort of bloodshed in this country that would be second to none in history. These evil forces have now shifted their attention to the Southern part of Nigeria and intend to start a campaign of massive bloodshed by starting a violent Igbo vs Yoruba conflict. We are too big to start a bloody confrontation against ourselves in this country, where do we run to for refuge? The numbers in Lagos alone can overwhelm Cotonou and even Ghana/Togo with a massive influx of refugees. How much refugees can flee through Bakassi? How much refugees can flee from the North into Niger Republic & Chad? Just with the boko haram problem Niger is already complaining and sending backing Northern Nigerian refugees. This is the only county we have and we must do all we can to protect this country and ensure progress & development. This message is especially for all the Igbos & Yorubas whose hearts have now been darkened and filled with so much anger and hate waiting to manifest. Let us put the evil ones to shame and ensure that their dream of an Igbo-Yoruba war does not come to pass! GOD BLESS NIGERIA!

The news is not false one bit. Whole Soyinka is a bitter igbo hater because he can't stand young chimamanda adichie not to talk of legendary Chinua Achebe
