professor Wale soyinka has denied statement attributed to him on Igbos voting pattern.

Professor Wole Soyinka has denied
comments attributed to him concerning the
voting pattern of the Igbo in the March 28
presidential election.
The report, published by TheCable, alleged
that he accused the Igbo of voting according
to their “stomachs”.
In an angry response to the story, Soyinka
said in a statement: “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.”
