As Editor of The Guardian in 2014 when he clocked 80, I did a special edition, a wrap-around on Wole Soyinka, the legend. I wanted to write a Special Inside Stuff Tribute on the Nobel laureate as he clocks 90 today. But when I found the 1986 Nobel Prize in Literature Presentation Speech on W.S by Professor Lars Gyllensten, of the Swedish Academy, a writer’s block overwhelmed me. So, I am presenting to you a greater ‘outside stuff’, a classic on Professor Soyinka, I mean what you may not have read or have forgotten about the proudly Nigerian literary giant.
The post 90 hearty cheers to Wole Soyinka appeared first on Guardian Nigeria News.
