Nigerian singer Ọlawale Ọlọfọrọ, widely known as Brymo, has leveled serious accusations against Nobel laureate Professor Wole Soyinka, alleging involvement in violence and calling on the literary icon to address the history of secret cults in Nigerian higher institutions.
The controversial remarks were shared in a series of posts on the singer's Instagram page, where he expressed fierce anger over what he described as the preventable deaths of young Nigerians. Explaining his relentless approach to the issue, Brymo stated that he was targeting the core of the problem and would not back down. "I am attacking the source, and I will not stop until Christ returns," he wrote, adding that Black people have suffered too much for him to expect a quick fix.
In his posts, Brymo directly implicated several prominent public figures, stating, "I will not forgive how Wole, Olusegun, and Gani Adams killed our boys." He further contrasted their alleged actions with those of the late Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, claiming that Fela protected his associates while others bore the brunt of campus violence.
Focusing his criticism squarely on the Nobel laureate, Brymo wrote, "I am the one who fell… and Professor Wole Soyinka is a very violent man." He insisted that speaking out would not harm him or his family, while challenging Soyinka's legacy by referencing his global accolades. "Your Nobel Peace Prize may be riding on the deal that is still killing your Nigerian boys," he added.
The singer went on to urge Soyinka to grant a public or exclusive interview addressing the origins and proliferation of secret cults in Nigerian universities. He challenged the scholar to explain what motivated the establishment of these groups and to account for the violence that has plagued student populations for decades, declaring that "no longer will your sons die for your misdemeanour."
