Debate: Obi-Datti Replies Soyinka, Says Baba-Ahmed, Least Obidient Ready For Him

The Obi-Datti Movement has taken up the challenge of a public debate issued by Prof Wole Soyinka saying that either Datti Baba-Ahmed or indeed, the least of the Obidients would square off with the Nobel Lauratte if he dares to come out.

Spokesperson of the Obi-Datti Movement, Prof Chris Nwakobia made the assertion even as he asserted that Prof Wole Soyinka would not dare come out for the debate saying that the Nobel laureate who he described as his mentor goofed in siding with the alleged oppressors of the people.

The Obi-Datti Movement spokesperson further defended the assertions of Datti Baba-Ahmed saying that in saying that it would be illegal to swear in Tinubu upon the fact that the All Progressives Congress, APC candidate did not win one-quarter of the votes in Abuja as stipulated in the constitution.

Asked if Datti Baba-Ahmed will take up a debate with Wole Soyinka, Prof Nwaokobia said:

“Oh yes, he will and effectively so. The least of the Obidients can take up that debate and do profoundly. I know Prof Wole Soyinka, I know he will not go for that debate because the point is that history is replete with facts and figures.

“Do you know that some of us see him as our mentor because he understands the fact that disobedience upon an unjust law is indeed the greatest respect for law. In 1965 or so with a gun he invaded a radio station and refused the announcement of Akintola as the winner of an election. History is such a beautiful spectacle and I implore my egbon and the esteemed laureate to oblige the young people who are saying that on the mandate given to Peter Obi to stand.”

“When those who are merchants in electoral larceny took their mandate with hot coal they cant close their hands because we are going to take it in the court,” Professor Nwaokobia said as he described the 2023 presidential election as one that would beatify the 2007 election conducted by Prof Maurice Iwu.

That point he said reinforced his belief that Professor Soyinka cannot come out for a debate with any member of the Obi-Datti Movement.
