Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka while speaking at a media briefing in Lagos on Thursday April 7, said he never supported the candidacy of Buhari in 2015 but only asked Nigerians not to vote for former President Goodluck Jonathan. 

Soyinka noted that Jonathan has a chance of winning the 2015 election but he blew it up due to his failure to tackle corruption which made the people to loose faith and confidence in him. He further adds that he did not regret his decision back then.

Soyinka in his words said “it is a shame that one has to recall negativities. at no time did i ever say ‘vote for Buhari’. you can’t find it anywhere. i did not vote for Buhari. if you do not believe me, go and ask the security man in Abeokuta who used to accompany me if i left my house that day.”
