Nigeria's foremost human rights activists, Professor Wole Soyinka and Femi Falana (SAN), on Thursday came down heavily on President Goodluck Jonathan and his wife, Dame Patience; describing the first lady in particular as a "mere domestic appending of power" who should stop meddling in governance.

Prof Soyinka and Falana lambasted President Jonathan for:
Engineering the chaos rocking Rivers State House of Assembly. The professor particularly said it is obvious that Jonathan and his wife are using the security apparatus to intimidate Governor Rotimi Amaechi.

They also called on the police hierarchy to remove and prosecute the commissioner of police in Rivers state, Joseph Mbu for role in the saga.

An infuriated Soyinka also asked the media to stop paying attention to the so-called newly elected speaker of Rivers state, Evans Bipi, describing the man as "a clown".

Prof Soyinka and Falana addressed the Press on the show of shame in Rivers State on Thursday.

Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyink has been at the receiving end of harsh criticism by angry Nigerians for venturing into the ongoing crisis in Rivers State.

Daughter of the late former head of state, General Sani Abacha, Gumsu Sani Abacha today, on a popular social network site, twitter,  lampooned the revered literary icon, describing him as ‘a mad professor’.

According to her, “Wole Soyinka is a “Mad Empty Professor that lives on criticising negatively his Motherland and the continent for Dollar and euro!”

Soyinka had at a press conference on last Thursday described the First Lady as a ‘domestic political appendage’ for overbearing influence and heating of the Rivers’ polity.
