Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka, has said that Nigerians no longer have hope in the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government as one that is genuinely committed to the survival of the nation as one.
In a statement yesterday, Soyinka said Nigerian citizens no longer believe that the administration understands the minimal requirements for positioning the country as a modern, functional space of productive occupancy.
Soyinka’s criticism came days after former President Olusegun Obasanjo warned that the country is slowly becoming a failed, divided state, and the poverty capital of the world.
In its response, the Presidency attacked Obasanjo, describing him as the country’s divider-in-chief.
Soyinka said while he is no fan of Obasanjo, he agrees with him that Nigeria is teetering on the very edge of total collapse.
