“Reconciliation” not mentioned in Obi’s visit to me — Soyinka

Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka, has said the word “reconciliation” was never used during the visit of Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate, to his home on Sunday.

Mr Soyinka, in a statement on Monday in response to various accounts of the visit that have emerged, said the visit was not to mend any fence.

Mr Soyinka who described the word “reconciliation” as “inappropriate and diversionary invocation” said he had no issues to reconcile with Mr Obi or the Labour Party.
