The Presidency on Tuesday said Prof. Wole Soyinka was only playing the ostrich by accusing President Goodluck Jonathan of being worse than King Nebuchadnezzar.
Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, said this in a text message sent to our correspondent.
Okupe said it was saddening that the Nobel Laureate also failed to reprimand Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State, who he described as the “national champion of impunity and official reckless.”
While saying Soyinka was wrong in his judgment of the Jonathan administration, the presidential aide described the present administration as the most liberal in the history of the nation.
He said, “Our eminent Prof. also sadly plays the ostrich as he failed to reprimand Governor Amaechi who is the national champion of impunity and official recklessness.
“The administration of President Goodluck Jonathan proves itself as the most liberal, keeping faith with adherence to rule of law and tolerance.”
No comment, since is coming from Okupe
ReplyDeleteNo surprise! You remain the same 'awodi jeun epe sanra' oku'gbe.
ReplyDeleteProf. Wole Soyinka has never supported President Goodluck Jonathan nor seen anything good in his administration. I too, never expected any less from him. It is clear he is playing a game of disgust against the presidency. Nigerians who truly do understand his gimmick and political antics in the face of his unbridled inflammatory comments against Mr. President, should disregard him and all his paraphernalia of decorations.
