According to Soyinka: ‘The problem here is that the government does not have a holistic grasp of the problems in Nigeria. If we are looking to this government for a solution, then it means we are lost.
‘We are in a mess. This country is in a mess. It is disintegrating before our very eyes. This government is floundering.’
He noted that the solution to Nigeria’s challenges is a Sovereign National Conference.
Soyinka said the various ethnic groups in Nigeria should come together and chart a way towards their mutual coexistence.
