There Was A Conspiracy To Annul 2023 Election – Wole Soyinka

Popular Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka has come out to say that there was a conspiracy to annul the 2023 presidential election.

He recently had his say while speaking on Channels Television, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, there was a clear conspiracy from the very beginning before the election to make sure the elections did not take place, and it even stopped being a contest between individuals at some point, to become a contest between the so-called interim political party and democracy.

Soyinka added that history was about to repeat itself and some people were about to take back to the days of the 1993 election.

His words, “I am alleging that there was a conspiracy from the very beginning before the election to make sure the elections did not take place or that even if the voting did take place, that everything be reverted to what happened under Babangida.

When we all just woke up and discovered that even though the results have been calculated, even though the results were in possession of international bodies, including monitoring embassies and so on, even if we had the results directly, it was suddenly annulled.

It was no longer a contest between individuals, it was now a contest between the so-called interim political party and democracy.

When you have a binary like that, I have no doubt or hesitation about what side of the barricade my position should be.”
