Only a Moron Will Believe I Insulted the Igbos - Professor Wole Soyinka

Nobel Laurette, Wole Soyinka has denied comments attributed to him where he allegedly said that the Igbos are quite predictable when it comes to voting as they reason with their stomach and are only interested in money.

The Professor came under fire for making such absurb statement. An angry Soyinka has responded to the allegations. His response below;

“I have just read a statement attributed to me on something called The CABLE, a news outlet, evidently one of the Internet infestations. My lecture at the Hutchins Centre, Harvard University, was video recorded. “Anyone who believes what I am alleged to have said must be a moron – repeat, a moron. It is demeaning, sickening and boring to have to deal with these cowards who cannot fight their own battles but must fasten their imbecilic pronouncements on others. “Only the mentally retarded will credit this comment attributed to me regarding the Ndigbo voting pattern in the last elections. I strongly suspect the author of this despicable concoction, and may make a further statement, once the source is verified.”
