Would you give up your airplane seat for Nigeria’s Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka? This was the hot topic on Nigerian Twittersphere on Monday.
It all began after a Nigerian businessman, Tonye Cole, shared his flight experience about a young man who ‘disrespected’ Mr Soyinka by asking for him (Soyinka) to leave his allotted seat which the professor sat on.
Many have reacted to this incident with diverse views, one of whom was Femi Fani Kayode who slammed the young man for being disrespectful.
He has however come under fire for his comment as many more are in support of the young man who asked Wole Soyinka to stand up from his assigned seat.
