GOODLUCK DOES NOT DESERVE A SECOND TERM – SOYINKA

Published

Playwright and Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka, says the President Goodluck Jonathan administration does not deserve a second term.

Soyinka, while speaking at the 2015 edition of a youth programme titled ‘Vision of the Child’ in Lagos on Thursday, said he had 60 reasons why Jonathan should not be re-elected.

He said Jonathan had failed to rescue the over 200 Chibok girls, who were kidnapped almost 300 days ago.

While addressing students at the event, he said, “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.”
