ngozievergreen:
if i had brought down Soyinka in dat post, then it was largely unintentional. And d whites and blacks (like me) dat honor Achebe dont have Soyinka in mind.
Your ppl were the ones that said Soyinka carried placards and was even jailed for activism which are his own way of contributing to Nig devt and i say its nonsense/ineffective.

Seriously, y will a hater put up a thread like dis? See, U dont use every topic to sell tribalism, cos whoever opened this thread just showed how ignorant he is abt wat literature can do and wat Achebe's lit actually did.
. D whites must have sworn Africa cant have a Shakespearan counterpart here but he proved dem wrong. He worked beyond Nig devt, yes, african devt.
Again, d fact that u and ur fellow yorubas decided to be his only useless critics in dis world is your own biz not mine/ours. Awo himself never denied starvation n 20 pounds policy bfr killing himself, so wetin cum dey worry una sef?

Like i said, i shd be surprised if ur pipz say anytn positive. 2moro, u will ask wat nollywood, Super Eagles, Philip Emeagwali did for Nig devt. My smart boyfriend,igbos no dey play local games. Na Achebe go cum build road for u.
Meanwhile, weda am still in kindergarten is not d issue here.

mainman7: LOL!!!!!!!!!!! Ol' Boy U fit kill person with laughter O! Indeed, he's obviously a very useless man, rather than bring unity, he caused more bad blood and sowed an evil seed, indeed a wolf in a sheep's clothing. He made Afenifere, OPC, Yoruba Youth Congress and all Yoruba federation world-wide to come together and really start preparing like never before. Before achebe's comment, the Yorubas were almost totally trusting the igbos. The myopic achebe blamed Awo for a war that would not have happened at all if the igbos were not overtly selfish.

ngozievergreen: @ Django, its alright. Like i said, i will be surprised if ur lot accept d truth.

U will see how d whole world will celebrate the shakespeare of Africa @ his burial,

Lol, let's look over some things in your post shall we?

1st bolded, what do you mean LARGELY unintentional? You mean to abuse him but just a little abi?

2nd bolded, how is actively taking part in demanding for social change ineffective? Were you still very young when Turai wouldn't allow GEJ take the reins of affair? Do you realize the amount of work soyinka put in to see justice is done?
Were you so little when soyinka gave voice to that electoral officer madam that declared that rigging at taken place at the 2011 polls? Ineffective? O serious!

3rd bolded: So, you feel okay with insulting Awolowo ba? And you don't expect some smittering on your uncle Achebe? Lols! That's called hypocrisy my young little miss.
Also, can you provide proof that an already old Awolowo committed suicide? If you've been lying about this, I might curse you with the same eventuality you're trying to use to kill the man's memory!

4th bolded: now these is really funny! So, ibos are the owners of nollywood and super eagles ba? You've got to be joking! Abi your dstv bouquet no complete?
And super eagles is yours? Hehehehe, you've got jokes girlfriend.

5th bolded: its very essential I know if you're in the kindergartin or not! If you gon be my GF I should know if you're underaged
On a serious note though, you should stop trying to insult our intelligence here, Achebe is a great writer and a very proud ibo man, but a Nigerian? I'm not too sure about that!

HOW AWOLOWO COMMITTED SUICIDE – BY ABDULMUMINI ADEKU BRIEF http://247ureports.com/how-awolowo-committed-suicide-by-abdulmumini-adeku/

UNE 1, 2010
TWENTY –THREE YEARS AFTER HE SUDDENLY WAS REPORTED DEAD OF NATURAL CAUSE AND TWO YEARS SHY OF HIS GOLDEN JUBILEE , FACTS ARE NOW EMERGING ON THE REASONS THAT LED TO FIRST AND SECOND REPUBLIC POLITICAL HEAVYWEIGHT ,LATE CHIEF OBAFEMI AWOLOWO COMMITTING SUICIDE
IT WAS LEARNED THAT HE DID IT TO STEM THE TIDE OF A POSSIBLE MILITARY COURT MARTIAL INTO AN INSURRECTION HE WAS PLANNING TO LEAD ALONGSIDE HIS POLITICAL ASSOCIATES AT THE TIME WHEN IT BECAME EVIDENT THAT THEN MILITARY PRESIDENT ,GENERAL IBRAHIM BABANGIDA WAS INTENDING STAYING IN POWER FOREVER.
IN A NO-HOLD BARRED INTERVIEW WITH FS ONLINE RECENTLY,A GRASS ROOT POLITICIAN ,MR ADEBAYO ADEYINKA WHO LIVES WITHIN THE COLLEGE ROAD AT IFAKO-IJAIYE AXIS IN OGBA ,A SUBURB OF LAGOS, NIGERIA WAS LIVID WITH RAGE WHEN HE LEARNED THAT A KEY POLITICIAN CONNECTED TO THE ISSUE WAS DENYING THE INCIDENT.
HE REVEALED THAT CHIEF AWOLOWO WANTED TO LEAD SOME KIND OF GUERILLA WARFARE OR MILITANT CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT OF PRESIDENT BABANGIDA SO THAT HE CAN BE OVERTHROWN THROUGH A POPULAR OR PEOPLE -LED PUTSCH.
ACCORDING TO HIM , THE ELDER STATESMAN SUMMONED A MEETING OF HIS CORE LOYALISTS OVER THE ISSUE AND THIS WAS EVEN FILMED SO AS TO STRENGTHEN THE EXTENT OF COMMITMENT OF EACH OF THE POLITICIAN THAT ATTENDED THE MEETING..
HE POINTED OUT THAT HOWEVER UNKNOWN TO ALL OF THOSE WHO WERE PRIVY TO THIS MEETING AND CLARION CALL , CHIEF LATEEF KAYODE JAKANDE ,FORMER EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR OF LAGOS STATE HAD A DIFFERENT PLAN AS HE BETRAYED THEM TO THE MILITARY .HE SAID:’ BUT UNKNOWN TO THEM , CHIEF JAKANDE WAS PLANNING TO BETRAY THEM, HE WENT TO PRESIDENT IBRAHIM BABANGIDA AND PROMPTLY SHOWED HIM THE TAPE
“PAPA AWOLOWO WAS INVITED FOR A MEETING WITH PRESIDENT IBRAHIM BABANGIDA WHO WAS THEN STAYING AT DODAN BARRACKS WHICH WAS THE SEAT OF POWER AS AT THEN AND THE TRUTH OF HIS CLANDESTINE MEETINGS WAS REVEALED TO HIM BY THE GAP –TOOTHED GENERAL
“HE GAVE PAPA SOME OPTIONS AND THAT WAS FOR HIM TO BE READY TO FACE A COURT MARTIAL , BE READY TO GO TO A PRISON OR BETTER STILL GO ON EXILE
“AT THIS STAGE PAPA FELT INSTEAD OF ALLOWING SOME AMBITIOUS KHAKI BOY TO MESS HIM UP HE SHOULD JUST PACK IT IN AND CALL IT A DAY ,SO CHIEF AWOLOWO DECIDE TO COMMIT SUICIDE SO AS TO SAVE HIMSELF FROM THE IGNOMINY OF GOING TO PRISON FOR THE SECOND TIME IN HIS LIFETIME .
“BUT BEFORE HE DID THIS HE CALLED HIS CORE LOYALISTS FOR A MEETING ,BEFORE THEN HE HAD CALLED UP LATE CHIEF BOLA IGE [CICERO],SINCE THE LATTER HAD A VERY STRONG UNDERSTANDING OF THE HAUSA LANGUAGE HAVING HAD HIS FORMATIVE YEARS AS A YOUNG MAN IN KADUNA BUT DISCOVERED THAT THE LATE ESA-OKE STRONGMAN WAS INNOCENT AFTER HE WAS INTERROGATED BY PAPA
“HE CALLED OTHERS FOR ENQUIRIES WHILE ASKING THEM TO TENDER THE VIDEO CASSETTES OF THE MEETING THEY ALL ATTENDED TO DISCUSS THE PLANS TO TOPPLE PRESIDENT BABANGIDA FOR EXAMINATION ,AT THIS JUNCTURE CHIEF JAKANDE DEVELOPED A COLD FEET AS HE COULD NOT PRODUCE HIS OWN COPY OF THE VIDEO WHICH WAS FREELY DISTRIBUTED TO ALL THAT WAS PRESENT AT THE MEETING PREVIOUSLY BEFORE THE BETRAYAL AND THAT WAS HOW THE CAT WAS LET OUT OF THE BAG
“SO HE CURSED HIM AT THIS POINT AND POINTED OUT THAT HE WILL NEVER HAVE ANY FORM OF RELEVANCE POLITICALLY AS FAR AS NIGERIA WAS CONCERNED AND TILL TODAY MEMBERS OF THE AWOLOWO DYNASTY AVOIDS HIM LIKE A PLAGUE.
“I WAS THEIR WHEN THE LETTER HE WROTE TO THE FAMILY TO BEG THEM FOR FORGIVENESS OVER THE UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT WAS READ IN THE PRESENCE OF ALL PRESENT ,IF HE CONTINUES TO DENY I AM READY TO CONFRONT HIM PUBLICLY AGAIN ON THE SAME ISSUE AS I CAN EVEN REMEMBER THAT ELDERS ASKED HIM TO GO TO THE GRAVE OF THE LATE SAGE TO PLEAD FOR FORGIVENESS
“WHEN HE WAS QUESTIONED HE LIED THAT THE NATIONAL SECURITY ORGANIZATION NOW STATE SECURITY SERVICES HAD VISITED HIS HOUSE TO CHECK ON HIM AND IN THE PROCESS TOOK THE TAPE IN QUESTION BUT” AWOISTS” KNEW THAT THIS WAS A VERY WEAK ARGUMENT AS HE DID NOT INFORM THEIR POLITICAL GROUP OF THIS DEVELOPMENT BEFORE THEIR ENQUIRY ON THE SUBJECT
“THAT WAS HOW SENATOR ABRAHAM ADESANYA ASSUMED THE LEADERSHIP OF THE AWOLOWO CAMP OF YORUBA POLITICS AFTER THE DEMISE OF THE MAN ,HE WAS NOT EVEN SO CLOSE TO AWOLOWO DURING HIS LIFETIME LIKE CHIEF JAKANDE AND THAT WAS WHY MANY CALLED HIM BABA KEKERE ON ACCOUNT OF THIS COSY RELATIONSHIP
“BEFORE HE GAVE UP THE GHOST , HE SAID HIS PRAYERS AND THEN TOOK THE POISON WHICH KILLED HIM ALMOST IMMEDIATELY BUT THE PUBLIC WAS NOT FULLY AWARE AS THEY WERE GIVEN A DIFFERENT ACCOUNT OF WHAT HAPPENED.
“WE WERE SIMPLY TOLD THAT HE DIED WHILE HE WAS BRUSHING HIS TEETH IN HIS BATHROOM AT HIS PARK LANE,APAPA RESIDENCE HERE IN LAGOS
“HE WAS STUPENDOUSLY WEALTHY DURING HIS LIFETIME, INFACT THERE IS KNOW COMPANY AT OBA AKRAN IN IKEJA ,LAGOS WHERE HE DOES NOT HAVE AT LEAST A FIVE PERCENT EQUITY, DIDEOLU COURT IN OGBA ALONE CANNOT BE VALUED AT LESS THAN N10 BILLION ,THAT WAS THE PLACE THAT HE HAD IN MIND TO BE HIS SEAT OF POWER IF HE WAS ELECTED AS NIGERIA’S PRESIDENT.
‘HE OWNED SHONIBARE ESTATE BUT THE MAN HE WAS USING AS A FRONT AND WHO LATER WENT TO PRISON OVER SOME ISSUES WHICH AWOLOWO HIMSELF WAS PRIVY TO EVENTUALLY LAID CLAIM TO THE ESTATE
“HE GOT ALL OF THIS WEALTH DUE TO A GREAT MEASURE OF GOODWILL AND TAX WAIVERS HE GAVE TO INVESTORS WHENEVER THEY COME TO ESTABLISH THEIR BUSINESS.
“ANYTIME YOU BUY A BOTTLE OF COCA-COLA YOU ARE ENRICHING THE AWOLOWO DYNASTY ,GO TO IJEBU IKENNE AND YOU WILL DISCOVER THAT THE PRICE OF A BAG CEMENT THERE IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER PARTS OF THE NATION DUE TO THE SUBSIDY THAT THE CITIZENS ENJOY ON ACCOUNT OF AWOLOWO WHO WAS THEIR SON AND I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT WEST AFRICAN PORTLAND CEMENT IS IN EWEKORO AND NOT IKENNE.
“ON ACCOUNT OF THIS GREAT BETRAYAL AWOLOWO FAMILY MEMBERS REGARD THE “AWOIST” AS A GROUP PEOPLE SHOULD DEAL WITH USING A LONG SPOON TILL THIS DAY AND THIS EXPLAINS WHY WHEN THE PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY GOVERNMENT GAVE SOME OF THEM POLITICAL APPOINTMENT LATELY THEY ACCEPTED IT WITHOUT THINKING TWICE.
“DR TOKUNBO AWOLOWO-DOSUNMU WAS MADE AN AMBASSADOR BY FORMER PRESIDENT OLUSEGUN OBASANJO WHILE , MR SEGUN AWOLOWO JNR WAS GIVEN A PLUM JOB AT THE FEDERAL CAPITAL TERRITORY IN ABUJA AS A SECRETARY.
“RECENTLY WHEN AFENIFERE WAS DISINTEGRATING MAMA OUT OF CONCERN FOR HER HUSBAND’S LEGACIES DECIDED TO CALL A TRUCE BECAUSE AS SHE PUTS IT THEN, SHE DID NOT KNOW WHAT SHE WAS GOING TO TELL HER HUSBAND THE DAY THEY MEET IN HEAVEN
“HE MADE SIJUWADE RICH , BECAUSE HE WAS HIS BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AND IN FACT SOME OF US HELD VERY STRONG VIEWS THAT HE WAS ONE OF HIS FRONTS AND LATER THE SAME MAN BECAME THE OONI OF IFE”HE ADDED

This goes to show how empty some peoples brains are!
I asked for evidence you are quoting this nonsense! Let me ask you, is ABDULMUMINI ADEKU the coronor that examined awo's body upon death or is he a mortician?

Who plans a coup and make a video of it and then still circulate it? Seriously only someone like you can believe this type of nonsense.

This is just a beer parlour talk!
Try again, next time don't quote a non entity.

CyberG:

^^^ You go fear RETARDEENS now...retardeen so bad, there is no evidence of mental activity in their heads!

Eziachi: It shows you knew nothing about what you talking about or be driven by tribal sentiment as always, because I remember MKO winning in Anambra, Enugu and Tofa winning in Imo and Abia and Abiola not far behind. How old were you in 1993? And who was Abacha and Gowon's sidekicks and who want to be Buhari sidekick in 2015? think first before you say all this things.

4chi:

You are absolutely correct on the fact that ashebe is nothing more than a ibo biafran. And that's all to him. So let the ibo biafran carry his crippled corpse and bury him in the evil forest like okonkwo his grandfather.

You are also absolutely correct that he doesn't owe yorubas any farthen, just like Awo did not owe biafrans any farthen by taking the most pragmatic decisions to end the Nigerian civil war quickly and bring your silly little republic to it's knees. One wonders then why ashebe was so bitter about that? I am sure he would do worse if he had the chance considering the volume of bitterness in his patently deranged psyche.

I just decided to grace your dumb skull with a response because of other people seeing this post, naturally you and whoever made all these up and distributing it are simply stuuupid and mischievious, not worthy of a second look.

When you biafran people are done with the war propaganda, let us know.

The truth hurts and it hurts so bad. ACHEBE said the truth and it is hurting the yorubas so bad. Let the slowpoke go to google search box and type "yorubas are", i am sure he will have the answers to his numerous unanswered questions.
