Sorry, you are officially a Muslim. Why did you click yes? Find the nearest mosque ans make sure you pray 5 times daily.

The problem with some mods here is. They have the final say on any issue. If you quote a mod or any of their friends on NL and you are against their opinion. There the ban goes.

I guess many of them cant stand criticism.

It well with them sha. grin

Good achievement.

The director of the "half of a yellow sun" movie tried too hard to make it seem deep. it wasn't.

Despite the fact that I share different views from this lady.

I respect the fact that she has a strong opinion and holds on to it as she fights for the rights of women.

my respect for her skyrocketed during the recent transwomen saga. she didn't twist her statement to please anybody.

she doesn't deserve the hatred she gets from Nigerians.

Keep going dear Amazon!
Have the same feelings too on her stiff stance on transwomen, but don't think Nigerians hate her.

half of a yellow sun is a classic novel with great story and superb display of great literary skills hence its translation in a blockbuster movie.

Only you can tell what you mean by boring and bias about great works of a young brilliant lady whose works has been winning awards year in year out like no other in Nigeria in recent times.
