it's cause of this type of questions that makes artist beg for food in 9ja, out there, people worship art and some actually see take artist as Demi gods, Nigerians should learn to appreciate art. ... I think it's worth it, good work

I didn't say that I don't like it. I only said that I didn't think it was worth 2.5 million pounds.

And that's the spirit of Biafra right there. When you're born into advantage, you utilize it creatively. Big ups to Uzodinma Iweala

So many Yorubas are into arts, but none can create something woth good money. In Nigerian arts scene, you would think it's their birth right in this country if you believe their media propaganda. All Yoruba writer put together have not sold one hundredth of Chinue Achebe's one book.
Those people should start respecting raw talent in SS/SE abeg.

In case you guys are blind, the surname here is Akunyili..and in ur custom, once a person is married off he becomes the property of the husband family, which in this case is Yoruba.

She's a Nigerian..and riding on the wave of her mum who died for Nigeria..i am proud of her.
^^
Shey this person well so? Dora Akunyili is from Anambra state and married an anambbra man in the name of pro Chike Akunyili.
The late Dora would nerver have touched a yoruba man with a ten foot pole, talkless of marrying one.

Last thing an Anambra girl will do is to marry a yoruba, she would rather stay single.
