The Nobel laureate said the current speculations about the president’s health is “unnecessary.” “Why is the president hiding his state of health? He’s supposed to understand he’s public property, me I’m still private property, that’s why I’m not in Aso Rock,” said Mr. Soyinka. “Once you are in Aso Rock, or you occupy a similar position, you have a responsibility to come out frankly to your citizens. “Guarding your state of health like Donald Trump is guarding his tax returns is not what we expect from a Nigerian president. “Let him address the nation and stop all these speculations which creates unnecessary political manipulations among other things.” Delete Comment

So, life was very easy and straightforward at that time and I am not someone who aspires to be in the public domain in any case. There was actually no need fo...

But four months after handing him over to a Lagos trader, identified as Iya Meta, who paid them N8,000, his whereabouts had yet to be known by the parents.
