“Where all this wash wash men. They all came out during the time of good luck Jonathan. But today they keep quiet dem dey fear 2? yeye occupy”, he tweeted.
In response to his tweet, a certain Femi Adebimpe wrote:
“When Soyinka was your age, he went behind enemy line into Biafra to try and stop the Nigerian civil war from happening by talking to the protagonists. And he went to.prison for that.
Tell us the sacrifice you have made for Nigeria outside of hiding behind a twitter account!”
