President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has named the Arterial Road N20 from Northern Parkway to Outer Northern Expressway (ONEX) as Professor Wole Soyinka Highway.
The public was informed on Tuesday by presidential spokesperson to Tinubu, Bayo Onanuga, via his Twitter account, that the FCT administration has suggested the Abuja Highway to be named in Wole Soyinka’s honor.
In naming the road after the distinguished playwright, poet and novelist who clocks 90 on 13 July, President Tinubu said Soyinka was the first African to win the Nobel Literature Prize. He said Soyinka has brought honour and fame to Nigeria.
