1. Opinion leaders in Nigeria like Wole Soyinka should be more nationalistic and objective when making comments on burning National Issues.
How can he compare a democratically elected govt with that of Abacha ? This was how he mislead Nigerians on RUGA.

2. As a Noble Laurate,I don't know if @YeleSowore in all is comments in the public domain spoke Chinese or Spanish calling for "RAGE" "Shut Down" "Take Over" etc.
Soyinka wants to redefine the meaning of the word "Revolution" in the context being used by @YeleSowore and allow

3. The DSS to sit down and watch a threat to our national security ,is nothing but sad,coming from him.
Same @YeleSowore that met with a leader of a separatist group,designated by the legitimate government of Nigeria as a terrorist group & specifically

4. Said they are going to "work together" .
No American or British Citizen will meet with a group designated as a terrorist group ,promised to work together with the group and return to the country without being arrested right at the airport ,tried and jailed!

5. Abacha was not a democratically elected government,he sent policemen and military after protesters,who demanded for the validation of June 12 ( an election where millions of Nigerians voted) so,Soyinka ,Ozaikhome and co shouldn't compare such "Protest" with the "RevolutionNow"

6. The #OccupyNigeria fuel "Protest" of 2012 was not a call for "Revolution" but a reduction specifically for the price of fuel.
SAP(Structural Adjustment Program) Protest was a call by Nigerians for IBB nt the impliment the program which was rejected by Nigerians through debates

7. Virtually all the "Protest" the NLC lead by Comrade @A_Oshiomhole was specifically for the reduction of fuel prices under OBJ.
Some public commentators like Soyinka have even tried to compared "Revolution" in Sudan,Egypt ,Libya etc to justify the act of @YeleSowore and co

7. But the fail to mention that in Libya,Egypt ,Sudan etc not of these leaders has spent nothing less than 30yrs ,they are dictators whom their citizens are tired of seeing their faces and have not conducted election for years.
So,the Soyinka & his like should stop this Nonsense!

8. IMN "Protested" consistently without been molested by the security agencies until it became violent and the security agencies had to step in.
The BBOG have organised series of "Protest" without being subjected to any form hindrance.
IPOB did "Protest" on so many times under

9. The administration of @MBuhari without being harassed, bt when it resorted to threatening the peace and tranquility of the Nigerian state ,the security agencies & government had to apply the law & proscribe the group.
@YeleSowore kept on using serious words like "Day of RAGE"

10. @YeleSowore used the word "Change of Government" in his interview with @abati1990 on @ARISEtv and the Nobel Laurate Wole Soyinka wants the DSS not to go after @YeleSowore ?
He has dared a duly constituted government and Prof.Soyinka should know better as an Elderstatesman.

11.Falana, Wole Soyinka Ozekhome and co shouldn't start twisting @YeleSowore words he of "Revolution" "Day of Rage" "Shut Down" "Change the Government" "No More DSS" to a mare "Protest" .
@MBuhari admin has often allowed people to engage in "Protest", @YeleSowore wants Revolution

12. @YeleSowore contested in an election, scored less than 40k votes,don't know if Soyinka voted for him.
@MBuhari contested in same election,I and 15m+ Nigerians voted for him,won & has been duly sworn in.
Soyinka and those who voted for @YeleSowore should allow @MBuhari rule!

God Bless Nigeria.
