Soyinka on Thursday declared that
no one should vote for President
Goodluck Jonathan, as his leadership
has been a complete failure,
according to Sahara Reporters.
He reportedly made this declaration
at the 2015 edition of Vision of the
Child (VOTC) event in Lagos, a
yearly programme inaugurated in
2012.
Soyinka said to the students present:
“I will not vote and I will not
encourage anyone to vote for the
continuation of this government,
simply because your colleagues
numbering over two hundred were
kidnapped.
And the government of this nation
failed to show leadership. So
anyone who says after that event
that I will vote or cast my vote or
encourage anyone to vote for this
regime must be living in Sambisa
forest…
There has been a failure of
leadership. Our children whom you
represent today have been
betrayed…
After that dereliction of duty, after
that failure of leadership, after that
betrayal for our future, for anyone
to think or to put words in my
mouth suggesting that I will vote or
encourage anyone to vote for this
regime is a travesty of intelligence.”
The 2015 edition of Vision of the
Child event was themed “The Road
to Sambisa.”
