Post-election riots planned ahead of time – Soyinka

Punch
29 April 2011


Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, on Thursday decried the post-election violence in some Northern states, saying it was “planned well ahead of time.”

He described the killings that followed the riots as an ‘unbelievable waste of lives,’ and pointed out that they (killings) had further brought to the front burner, the concept of Nigeria.

The playwright spoke just as the 2 Division of the Nigerian Army said it had arrested more than 108 people in Oyo, Osun, Ogun, Delta, Edo and Kwara states during Tuesday’s governorship and state assembly elections.

Election observers on the platform of Project 2011 Swiftcount had also on Thursday reported an upsurge of critical election-related incidents, including ballot snatching and violence during Tuesday’s polls.

Addressing journalists at a news conference in Lagos, Soyinka lamented that the destruction of lives, especially during elections in the country had persisted because leaders have never prosecuted the perpetrators.
