Nobel Laureate and iconic
playwright, Professor Wole Soyinka, has spoken out about the report making the
rounds about dead and cloned President Muhammadu Buhari.
While in Poland, President Buhari
had cried out about claims that he was dead and cloned.
Soyinka was addressing a cross
section of audience at Freedom Park in an event marking the 70th anniversary of
human rights and worldwide reading for press freedom in memory of Jamal
Khashoggi.
He also stressed on the need to
take the issue of stolen identity with seriousness.
He said, “Recently, we have a
situation in Nigeria and that is the issue of cloning President Muhammadu
Buhari. We have people who have taken that issue seriously.
“These were people that one can
never believe to accept such considering their level of intelligence.
“When Buhari went to Poland, I
said what a coincidence because I hope while he was there, he will be able to
sort-out his identity and there will be a report on the return of his identity.
“Poland appears to be the centre
for Nigerians settlers with stolen identity.”
Soyinka, who also cried out that
his identity was stolen on Facebook in Poland, said upon discovery that his
identity was being used in Poland, he visited the country and demanded that the
page using his identity on Facebook be pulled down.
He added, “But he (operator of
the business) refused, claiming that he has authority to do that. In my name,
this fellow sells and buys things which I don’t even use.”
