Soyinka is better as a Guinea fowl hunter than political analyst-Obasanjo in new Book

Prof.Wole Soyinka,called a Guine fowl hunter by Obasanjo in new book



People who Know ex President Olusegun Obasanjo,have always remarked about how funny he is.They say he is a comedian.Well,Obasanjo has shown part of his comedic nature in his new book "My Watch".The way in which he slated fellow Egba indigine,Professor Wole Soinka,is nothing short of hilarious.Comedian Ali Baba would have been proud of him..hear Obasanjo as he says Prof
Wole Soyinka is better as a guinea fowl hunter than a political analyst:
“For Wole, no one can be good, nor can anything be spot-on politically except that which emanates from him or is ordained by him, His friends and loved ones will always be right and correct no matter what they do or fail to do.”





“a misfit as a political analyst, commentator or critic,” 





“He is surely a better wine connoisseur and a more successful “aparo” (guinea fowl) hunter than a political critic, not to talk of what he would do as a politician,” 





“I take him seriously on almost all issues except on the political particularly Nigerian politics.”





“If I go before him, I will bid him welcome when he arrives at the great beyond. I hope he would do the same if he succeeds in getting there before me and we find ourselves on the same side of the divide.”
To say Professor Wole Soyinka is powerful with words,will be an understatement,so it will be interesting to see if Soyinka has a reply for Obasanjo..watch this space folks.
