WhiteSoup:Her father is Igbo. We don't need all these Yoruba-Igbo thing. Better leave all these small village Igbo boys who come here to make noise every time. Exposed Igbos/Yoruba won't come to NL shouting all the time. Let the immature ones continue making noise. |

Bane2020:I honestly can't blame her. She is more accomplished than most men and probably more intelligent too , so she sees no rational reason for patriarchy. She has earned her right to yap about feminism in my opinion. The problem now is, when chew gum girls depending on their boyfriends for most things, in exchange for their warm little hole ,are also yapping about feminism. That is just infuriating 1 Like |

Bane2020:She has earned the right to point out the archaic patriarchal views that exist in our society. She works , earns way more than her husband and yet does not make a song and dance about it( unlike some women) see it takes a special type of man to appreciate a mind like hers. She is free to speak her mind and you are entitled to disagree both perfectly acceptable. 4 Likes 4 Shares |

MissRaine69:The day I came to fully respect her was when I listened to her TEd talk on the dangers of a single story. Absolutely brilliant presentation. And also much recently, when she called out the French government about their policies in francophone Africa . She was in a literary meeting in Paris, where she disgraced politely, an ignorant journalist who asked if they were libraries in Nigeria, and then tore into the French govt about their francophone African policies, and with a French minister in attendance. The minister got up and left in annoyance and she just smiled and continued. Those two events have made me respect her truly. And both videos are on YouTube. There is no queen bey. There is a queen chimamanda. 1 Like |

The award is race/tribe blind. At the end of the day she is Nigerian and moments like this makes you proud to be a Nigerian. |

CSTR1003: She can't win the Nobel Prize. Popularity does not fetch one the Nobel Prize. And moreover, she has to try and win a Booker Prize first as it seems like those who win a Booker Prize always end up winning the Nobel Prize. |
