An Injustice To Enlist Prof Chinua Achebe In The Nairaland Hall Of Shame by Technocracy: 9:47am On Dec 23, 2012 |
Why on earth will nairaland enlist chinua achebe in their hall of shame,simply because he said the truth about your most reverd awo and revealing facts about the civil war,i had expected nairaland to bring it in the court of public opinion other than adopting ethnocentric bias,more so one of the cardinal principle of journalism is balance d reporting,which you have negated,i think its a privillege to ur management that nigerians patronise, adopt fairness and throw tribalism and brown paper pack to the bin if u want to remain the choice destination for conscious nigerians |

@op. You are r.e.t.a.r.d.e.d When achebe decided to publish a pack of unprecedented and frivolous lies, where were you? Did you ibos not come here to support him? Selection of Achebe into this forum's hall of fame was done through an election. So STFU. 1 Like |

It is very Wong! If u like condemn it f u don't like praise it. The OP is not intelligent period? After all one mans meat is another molecular description of the cycle of another mans poison. I expected better from Jarus of all people. Because Jarus wouldnt have added his name if he was an Igbo, that is the irony keep jumping up and down you Can never get to the sky Lol |

The same bunch of people (yorobasttards) that did everything in their power to see that Achebe and his people were wiped off the face of the earth during the biafran war. I weep for any foolish Igbo who is being naive and not seeing the Yorubas for what they really are, which is green snakes in a green grass.By the way have they finished calling for a ban on all Achebe's book? 4 Likes |

If you don't like that, protest against NL or just simply create your own forum! Achebe further put a strain on an already fragile relationship between Igbos and Yorubas. Even if Awolowo "ordered genocide" on the Igbos like the prof said, why didn't the prof speak about the Igbos who stole Ojukwu's money he wanted to use to buy weapons? The fund raised for acquisition of arms that was embezzled by Igbos? The Igbos who sabotaged the war? Why? Awolowo was on the Nigerian side a finance minister not a military general. You don't hear Wole Soyinka speaking about his grievances with Ojukwu because the wise is trying to bury the mistake and let Ojukwu continue to be revered by his people. What is Achebe trying to achieve by indirectly calling Awolowo a war criminal? Knowing Awolowo means a lot to the Yorubas. Awolowo didn't let Azikiwe's bank go bankrupt during the war, but same Azikiwe connived with Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa to throw Awolowo in jail. Yet Awolowo ensure that hi bank stayed healthy during the war. You see why Achebe deserve to be in the hall of shame? 3 Likes |
