You don't have to take down someone else's book for yours to shine or be up. If you're good enough, yours will shine as well.

That lady is a born-writer!

I wished the novel, "Half of a yellow sun" would never end. That book was absolutely riveting and "un-put-downable".

I admire her "Africanness" too!

And she's from Anambra State, d state of intellects, proud to come from Anambra state
you Igbos sound so foolish sometimes. You guys are so fooolish that you take every achievement to state level. Instead of you to praise the young lady as Igbo woman you are seeing her as someone from Anambra. You guys are already divided and you are talking of Biafra.
I have not seen any yoruba who talks about state instead of Yoruba as a group.

That's why all of you have threads of all your state separately while yorubas have one for all their states.

Biafra will be a disaster. My people think twice already. No more support for your useless Biafra.

Calm down bro. Even as a family in Igbo land there's always a competition that's just the hunger within igbos it doesn't mean division or hatred. Between Serena Williams and Venus Williams you have to still diffentiate rather than call them Williams family.
