Professor Wole Soyinka, Obatonikangire

Obatonikangire is a conferred title, named after Nigeria’s National Theatre, and in this context with the affectionate cognomen of Nigeria’s first Nobel Laureate, this is part of the boughs and the Oya, but unlike the others, is conferred and singular to the person for life unless they reject or repudiate it.
