Wole Soyinka, Nigerian playwright and Nobel Laureate has claimed that he does not believe President Muhammadu Buhari is in charge of the country. He said this in an interview on PlusTv Africa on Thursday.
Soyinka said: “I have said this before; I do not believe there is really anybody in charge of Aso Rock. I’ve been studying the trend over the past year and a half and I believe this President is not in charge of this nation, in so many aspects and directions.
“It is not the fact alone; we know the history of this. We know what it has caused the nation and we know it is not over yet. And you say you are launching an enquiry. That is enough”.
His statement was in response to the open letter written to the President by Former Military Administrator of Kaduna and retired Colonel, Umar Dangiwa. In the letter, the Colonel accused Buhari of appointing only Northerners into public offices, ignoring Christians and those from the South. The claim was however, backed up with a few references.
