UNN Confers Lifetime Achievement Award on Wole Soyinka

Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has expressed appreciation to the Institute of African Studies, University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN), for the Lifetime Achievement award conferred on him by the Institute.
Soyinka was honoured in Nsukka, during the 2nd Memorial Chinua Achebe International Conference, organised by the Institute.

He said "I am happy on the turnout of people and the award, it has re-ignited my sense of belonging in UNN. I consider myself part and parcel of this university, I will always identify with UNN wherever I find myself. In many places, it is bulldozer that dictates the architecture of the environment, but here it is natural. I congratulate the university management, especially the vice-chancellor and urged them to continue to maintain this natural environment".
