After the ongoing debate about an incident involving Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka and a young Nigerian in the plane, the popular writer has shared his reaction.
Media Mogul, Mo Abudu, recently shared a mail from Wole Soyinka on her Instagram page.
The celebrated writer disclosed that the incident was very minor.
The mail read, “Hallo Mo, Someone sent me Patrick Tonye’s comment on the plane incident, and I saw your brief comment.
It was a very minor thing and I’d forgotten all about it. However, after reading the boy’s response, I became curious. First, I never exchanged a word with him throughout beyond inviting him to take his allotted seat.
Never spoke a word to him after that. Certainly never exchanged contact. So of course, I wonder if it’s the very individual who’s posted this or a total fake.
The phenomenon of stolen identities takes very strange dimensions and has become a source of worry. I wonder if this is one such. Anyway of your finding out. I don’t operate in social media as you probably recall.”
