This has been a wonderful way to bring me back and remind me that Cuba is also my home. And it is proof that Yoruba is everywhere here, and that completes the spiritual aspect of people like me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Haydee Santamaria Medal, named after a revolutionary icon, is awarded to Cuban and foreign individuals and groups who have significantly contributed to realising the objectives of the Casa de las Am\u00e9ricas, a leading cultural institution in Cuba.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the national medal, Soyinka was also presented with the Dulce Mar\u00eda Loynaz International Prize by the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Medal was\u00a0awarded to Soyinka in recognition of his lifelong dedication to justice, culture, and human improvement Nobel Laureate Prof Wole Soyinka, was on August 23 honoured by the Cuban President, Miguel Diaz-Canel with the prestigious Haydee Santamaria Medal.
