Nigerian TikTok personality Habeeb ‘Peller‘ Hamzat says he plans to host a livestream with Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka.
Peller announced the plan during a recent livestream, saying
he would share details soon.
“I want to do a stream with this man that knows book for the
whole Africa, Wole Soyinka,” he said.
“I want to do a big stream with him. Don’t worry, I will
announce it soon. I will tell you guys.”
He added that it would be “a proper English day” on the
livestream.
“There is nothing like uneducated person no watch that live
because you’ll be hearing some grammar, some talk from our forefathers.
Everything you will be hearing it,” he said.
Soyinka is one of Africa’s most celebrated writers. He won
the 1986 Nobel Prize in Literature, becoming the first African to receive the
award.
The 92-year-old playwright, poet and novelist has written
several novels, plays, poetry collections and memoirs.
He has achieved success with his plays, including ‘The Swamp
Dwellers’ (1958), ‘The Lion and the Jewel’ (1959), and ‘The Invention’ (1957),
an early play produced at the Royal Court Theatre.
Soyinka has written a number of other works, including ‘The
Interpreters’ (1965), ‘Season of Anomy’ (1973), ‘Death and the King’s Horseman,
Chronicles from the Land of the Happiest People on Earth’ (2021), and
‘Harmattan Haze on an African Spring’ (2012).
In July 2024, Bola Tinubu renamed the National Arts Theatre
after Soyinka during his 90th birthday.
