Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka, has called on President Bola Tinubu to launch a fresh probe into the killings of prominent Nigerians, including journalist Dele Giwa, former Attorney-General Bola Ige, and democracy activist Kudirat Abiola.
The playwright’s remarks came as part of his reflections on Nigeria’s Democracy Day, commemorated on June 12, during which Tinubu addressed the National Assembly and announced national honours for key figures in the country’s pro-democracy movement.
Papers News reports that Soyinka, while speaking to a select group of journalists in Lagos on Saturday, asserted there is a need for closure on these high-profile political assassinations.
