Literary doyen and Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has declared that Nigeria as a nation is no longer working.
According to him, it is total madness to think the country is still working.
Soyinka state this on Saturday at the 2021 Obafemi Awolowo Lecture titled, ‘Whither Nigeria?’ which was organised by the Obafemi Awolowo Foundation.
His words, “There is a consensus that this country whether in terms of governance, economic relations, security, educational policy, cultural policy, etc, requires restructuring. Even the word ‘restructuring’ has been restructured in many directions, in cogent expression which will mean the same thing for everybody.
“For me, for instance, I emphasised decentralisation, reconfiguration…We all know what we have now is not working, it’s obvious and we can’t continue along the same line and say that it will work, it is sign of madness,” he said.
