Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka has described Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as the most brutal face
of military dictators after Sani Abacha; NEWSWIRE NG reports. Soyinka
reportedly made the comment during an appearance on BBC World. When
asked about his comments about the general as a brutal devil, Soyinka
said, ''I didn’t exactly call him a devil, but of course I talked about
dinning with the devil with a very long spoon, but he (Buhari), I didn’t
even want to dine with him at all,” he said.''After
Abacha, he represented the most brutal face of military dictatorship,
there’s no question at all about that. I’ve got to the point whereby I
look at the possibility of a genuine internal transformation with some
individuals. I have been disappointed before, and we must always be ready to be disappointed again.
