Where was Professor Wole Soyinka when Tinubu insulted Obidients by calling Labour a “mushroom” party, whose members “will labour till death”? Is that Pyrates song Soyinka called ‘distasteful’ as bad as wishing death on Labour Party members? Why didn’t Soyinka condemn Tinubu? When Tinubu sponsored Occupy Naija, where then President Jonathan’s photo was placed on a coffin and labelled RIP, why did Soyinka not call it distasteful, as he did with the Pyrates anti-Tinubu song? Wole Soyinka is too respected to display such double standards

Professor Wole Soyinka, who insulted Patience Jonathan, calling her a rather crude and rude name, which out of respect for her I will not mention here, is now upset that the Pyrates confraternity, which he founded, is mocking Tinubu? He called it distasteful! How tasteful was it for a Nobel laureate to insult the wife of a President, not for any government policy, but for her weight and perceived political influence in Rivers state? Not that I support the Pyrates video. I refused to post it. But if the video must be condemned, surely it should not be by Soyinka! He lacks the moral authority to so condemn.
