I took me a minute to get to really read this information. Asa, this is very serious, thought provoking information. Very interesting.
Yeah Bruh! I had the same thoughts about both articles as well. I had to read them twice to get a proper handle on the wisdom what Soyinka was imparting. They are worth a couple more reads for sure to get into the depths of that wisdom.
Blessings!
