One thing I haaaaaaattte more than anything is this victim culture women and blacks tend to have nowadays! As long as you're a rich, educated woman living in a first world country, you're more privileged than most people so you should be the last person whining about 'oppression'. So what if someone said something rude to you? So that's the definition of 'oppressed'? No one is holding you back, no 'glass-ceiling', no 'wage-gap' whatever. We women are even lucky that we can use our looks or sex to get by. So stop the whining, please. 10 Likes 3 Shares |

FrancisTony: You nah... Idi funny The Nobel prize aint no ordinary prizen it's given to people with remarkable achievements in certain discipline.... Einstein won it for his achievements in physics, John Nash won it in economics for "game theory", as for literature, only 3 people have won it in Africa, soyinka being the first.. Even achebe did not get it,so it's quiet a big deal... Comparing soyinka to adichie is quiet unfair, the gap is too much, it's like comparing chris brown to Michael jackson... 7 Likes |

The average African man would say, women are 'naturally meant to be under men'. Ask him what he sites as his source and he references the bible. Enough said. 4 Likes |

Does she ever have another topic of discussion? This seems to be the only thing I ever hear her hammering on. It is beginning to sound like a broken record to me. The women around me; my partner and daughter are not victims of this. There are certain opportunities that nature places on them as females. Short of that, they are no different from males and I do not treat them any different. 1 Like |

Just a very long speech with nothing meaningful, no actual, no concrete/direct advice. Basically nothing to pin point in her speech. I wish you guys watched Ayisha Osori on channels tv this morning very meaningful and inspiring argument about gender equality. 2 Likes |

smileysmiles: Yes fully qualified to loot our treasury(Stella odua, Diezani, NOI). I doubt if this feminist is even a Christian, breeding some kind of culture that will ultimately lead to crisis in families as wives will no longer be submissive to their husbands as the Bible advices. She'll cause more harm than good to the female folks with these her sermons. 2 Likes |

At least she agrees the reason for make-up is cos of a man. Yet some ladies would deny as if its all about "Trying something" I'm i the only on that smells a reason why she DOESNT take a swipe at religion knowing fully well that it supports the stance she is opposing till date? Men as nannies!! Abi Mannies? Like seriously. Funny. Overall, she is "Trying" but to me, needs to convince more to show. She sees herself as a preacher of sorts. There were many before her. Thats where my fear lies. Not like i dont want some of her ideas. But history......... Overall, nice speech. |

MarvellousGod: No Oh! I will breastfeed the baby lubbish, she's a feminist who'll set female folks against Men and the Bible, which clearly admonishes wives to be submissive. The Bible says, be submissive, Chimamanda says, you don't have to if you don't want to. |

Omotola with four kids and married for 20 years right? Featured on Time's 100 most influential people and has achieved a lot in her career over the years .Hear her: I don’t believe in gender equality. I do not believe that God made man and woman to be equal in any way. I believe that in every organised institution, there is always a head and an assistant. It doesn’t mean that one should take the other for granted, or disrespect the other. I believe the husband is the head of the home and the wife is an assistant. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Dear God! My eyes started watering after awhile, what a lot of liberal pc crap this stupid woman is spewing...just because you can write a novel doesn't all of a sudden turn you into some kinda muse. Equal rights for homos on the continent of Africa!?

Velocitron: I understand the message you are trying to pass but disagree with your rationale! There are many places in First world countries where your money and intellect are rubbished due to the color of your skin and/or gender. Oppression has different levels of intensity but no matter which way we look at it, it is still oppression. Some people do the same work, at the same company but still make less due to their gender or the color of their skin. 6 Likes |
