CELEBRATING
WOLE SOYINKA @ 90
The global celebration of Professor Wole Soyinka on his 90th birthday is a fitting tribute to a literary giant who has consistently seared landscapes of injustice with the activism of a moral and social conscience.
We thank you for participating in these celebratory events for Prof. Wole Soyinka, aka Kongi, Eniogun, Dad, Pa, WS, GP & GGP.
The family
“We have had many writers in Africa who have been moved to act physically as well as write, but Soyinka is the supreme and splendid example of the writer meeting the demands of his time beyond intellectual obligations as they are generally understood.”
Nadine Gordimer, Nobel Laureate for Literature, 1991, South Africa.
“You are, for me, a guiding light. Your courage. The ease with which you inhabit your skin, speaking your mind, unburdened by apology. Your kindness and humour. Your utter coolness.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
