Kingsley Moghalu, a former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), has described Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka as a principled fighter for justice.

According to The Nation Soyinka stated that he warned the LP’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, that his supporters, dubbed “Obidients,” could cost him the election.

“His endorsement of my 2019 presidential candidacy in my short-lived but impactful foray into Nigerian electoral politics remains one of the greatest honors of my life.

“I view very dimly any criticism of him simply because he’s OBJECTIVE. He survived dictators. He will survive you.”
