Nigeria has had an incredible people. From Ken Saro Wiwa, an ordinary man who has taken the initiative to fight for his minority clan over the exploitation by the majority, he advocated for environmental conservation which was later said by the UN that it is required at least 30 years and a minimum amount of 1 billion USD to put things right. To Wole Soyinka, a charismatic man with the gift of the mind to move crowds(audiance) through his writings. Great people indeed.
Despite his fame and his greatness and being incarcerated in his youth he continues to live in Abeokuta. Lesser greats would have lived in the West. You are my hero.
A compartment of remarkable piece of a doughty Nigerian whose footprints in the literary world, human coexistence, and harmonizing the psychometric of the mind will remain in-erasable in the epoch of life.
I cried so much on d day I heard dis bad news of dat wicked Abacha murdered Rip Ken Saro Wiwa just cos he was fighting 4 d rights of his ppl of Ogoni Land.. May Abacha rot in hell fire.
!!--always trying to get back to your tranquil state to create or do absolutely nothing!!as an aspiring writer who loves his alone space and time so much...I felt that!!!😅
Point of correction; Prof. Wole Soyinka did not go to Abeokuta Grammar School, but Government College Ibadan, from where he went to the University of Ibadan.

You say that the Holy Bible is a hoax and i say you're a joke. If GOD hasn't removed the scales from your eyes which would allow you to understand its contents, the Holy Bible will be foolishness to you or anyone with a similar disposition. (Read 1 Corinthians 1:18 & 1 Corinthians 2:14). But you're not without hope for GOD loves even those who reject Him and His Word. See Romans 10:9 and John 14:6 to find out the way one can come to GOD for eternal life. Best wishes.
WAKE UP. WAKE UP, you are still not hearing Soyinka. You are still learning from history, Sankofa. You are still not hearing Fela Kuti. For so many Nigerians don't know what Pan-Africanism ( Nebafrakani ) is let alone those that came before Soyinka. Like Duse Mohammed Ali that worked with Oguntola Sapara. It seems many are still manipulated by religion and can not read the writing on the wall. Yoruba language and ancient Egyptian ( Khamat ) are sister and brother, Fela name the group Egypt 80 and said to study Khamat and many are confused at what I'm saying. They go about suffering and smiling.
You have to be nigerian to know how badly this narrator butchered the word Ibadan! Ibaaahdaan! That was sooo funny! By the way, Wole Soyinka is a class act!
Who cares? It is not about the language or differences. Honor to Wole Soyinka and the narrator who make this possible to learn rest of the world about Wole Soyinka and Nigeria!

Great people indeed.
Great to see that these living legends have been documented for posterity.
Soyinka the Great!!!
I love his voice.
A lovely manly voice
Despite his fame and his greatness and being incarcerated in his youth he continues to live in Abeokuta. Lesser greats would have lived in the West. You are my hero.
I will make a movie for this man. Mark my words. He is so Great.
Amen to that
Soyinka is a great man and always stood up for the masses....God bless you
PROFESSOR WOLE SOYINKA IS A MAN OF EVERYBODY GOD BLESSED HIM
A compartment of remarkable piece of a doughty Nigerian whose footprints in the literary world, human coexistence, and harmonizing the psychometric of the mind will remain in-erasable in the epoch of life.
let us hope so
Couldn't agree more son of Africa
His a great 👍 man proud to come from the same country as his...
A great man, A 💎 of Africa. I found it interesting how his son sound exactly like him.
Would like to see a movie produced on the life of Wole Soyinka and this era of Nigeria and Africa.
Such a simple yet complex mind.
A great writer. His book "The lion and the jewel" was one of a set of 3 books that I read for my GCSE literature.
That book was a gem. I literally felt suffocated with how helpless the school teacher turned out.
No allusion was made to his views on religion and his choice of atheism. He is a role model.
Ayuba Zoaka he isn't an atheist, he is a traditional Yoruba religion practitioner.
This was so good!
You are the legend
Wole is just super great,wow
Morgan Freeman must play this man in his movie biography.
I would hate to have Morgan Freeman play him. If there is to be an American playing him James Earl Jones would be a better fit.
He looks like him that was my first impression when I was him...I immediately thought of Morgan Freeman...look like brothers.
Thank You An African voice of the voiceless and a gate way for Africa's future
Wole Soyinka, an erudite professor emeritus.
I cried so much on d day I heard dis bad news of dat wicked Abacha murdered
Rip Ken Saro Wiwa just cos he was fighting 4 d rights of his ppl of Ogoni Land..
May Abacha rot in hell fire.
Thank you so much for repeating his name so I can learn more about him.
Great man
In the art of penmanship, he is the greatest in the world
could you please do a documentary of Dr. John Garang de Mabior of South Sudan.
what a brave man
Beautiful Video.

He was an Abeo student sir
The man of the people.
Great African Legend
Great man!
The narrators tone of speech is too similar to a news reporter's, this should be a documentary not a news report episode.
i agree
You're absolutely right😀😁😂🤣

The bible IS a hoax!
And you never read Soyinka.

All praises to the most high Yahuah! Wake up Isreal!
His choice of words needs one to constantly read with a dictionary at hand
Yeah good

The Great Orator!
wassup with these African leaders for independence engaging with non-African women
the narrator's voice is so annoying. You need me to narate
beware of the mind.
Intolerance of intolerance? Is that what Afrikans have always been... so Boko H are not serving the governments agendas?
You have to be nigerian to know how badly this narrator butchered the word Ibadan! Ibaaahdaan! That was sooo funny! By the way, Wole Soyinka is a class act!
U VERY TUUCHEY
Unbelievable.
What have you achieved in your own life to positively contribute to Africa before you criticize others?
Who cares? It is not about the language or differences. Honor to Wole Soyinka and the narrator who make this possible to learn rest of the world about Wole Soyinka and Nigeria!
kansascityrocky we are not here to have fun. We are from the whole world to listen and see Wole Soyinka and the narrator is really good!
Great man respect
In Jamaica we learnt about African great leaders of which Wole was one. Freedom Fighter and blessed.
