handsomebanana:



I agree with u on d bolded a thousand percent.

All corrupt politicians are pilloried and denigrated by honest citizens of this country.

Saying that a female thief was criticized and attacked just because she was a woman is as a result of groundbreaking stupidity.

It is crazy how supposed educated people think. I'm a Yoruba man and I don't feel bad Bode George was imprisoned. In fact, I was incensed at the party he threw after release. The family of a thief should hide in shame, not claim that their family is being persecuted.

Bigsteveg:

Obviously you are the exact opposite of what you just typed.

I totally disagree, thief na thief. The focus was on her because she held an important position.

Do you have a problem with comprehension?

All she had to say that corruption case against Diezani is because she was a PDP member and EFCC is one sided.

Chukazu:


what has Nnamdi KANU got to do with stealing

because he is a criminal terrorist

Afam4eva:

It was because Bode George was trying to overshadow Obasanjo in the South West.

None of your examples is due to gender.
Chimamanda failed it.
None of the female corrupt politicians had it rough like Dasuki Abd Ibori.
She should stop being a radical feminist. It sucks

Spot on!

SBG04:
I have no idea why this girl is celebrated abroad. Her books are just there, barely readable to me. The film adaptations are even worse. Its good to know she sounds as shallow and empty as her books make her out to be. I would hate to say this, but this is the kind of nonsense you would expect to hear from an Igbo person. They are people devoid of morals. A thief is a thief. I haven't seen any thread on Nairaland where Madueke's gender is used as a basis or condemning her. Its only this igbo bigot and biafra apologist that sees things that way

It is simply ɓecause the society where she thrives is a matriachal one. As someone rightly positeɗ, right from Eve, there exist an eternal enmity between most women anɗ logic as well as critical thinƙing. Adichie, accept my sympathies!

Afam4eva:

It's because Ibori was from the Niger Delta.

It is because Dasuki is from the North
It is because former Police I.G, Tafa Balogun, is a Yoruba
It is because Fowl-yose is from PDP
It is because ...it is because....it is because...


WHY "certain slowpokes" always find EXCUSES to justify madness and criminlaity?

This is the problem with this so called feminism. Diezani stole nausea-inducing sums of money and she's wants to make this a gender issue.

Diezani hasn't even been punished and most likely will escape justice much like her corrupt male counterparts, so why the cry of sexism.

Nigerians shouldn't complain again because it's a woman involved?

Dumb and brainless - *Fixed.

Dumb and brainless tool of the illuminati. She's defending a kleptomaniac just because she wants to stand for feminism!
May God have mercy on this generation!!!

Beauty and brains.

Hmmmm

I agree with you 101%.
I am happy that Tafa Balogun was removed from office and jailed.

The thing is, unlike other Nigerian tribes, Yorubas are generally different when it comes to shielding a thief from their tribe, it is against their culture and that has been the case from time immemorial.... until recently when shamelessness seems to have become a badge of honor amongst all Nigerians.

GoldNiagara:



This girl no get sense, so she should be excused cos she is a woman thief. We find it appalling that a woman will have the temerity to steal such humongous kind of money.

"appalling, temerity, humongous"
oga why u dey waste all d vocabulary u spent years to learn on top say u wan coment on d stupid thing dat ipob girl talk. abi obaighon na ur popsy?

Someone said "Women dont know much generally but the moment they know a little more, they become a problem not only to themselves, but to society at large".

Sexism and feminism is just an excuse for incomeptence, weakness and inadequacy.

Men also have "gender", as in male gender but you dont see them attributing their failures to their gender or trying to buy opportunity with their mal anatomy.

Women should just become EQUAL (if they can) or just STFU.

Timbuktuo:
Yes, just like Sambo Dasuki and Nnamdi Kanu who are also women.

I am yet to see what this woman contributes to the public sphere asides storytelling. In terms of logic and critical thinking, she is seriously deficient.

Abeg, carry your useless identity politics stay for Yankee or Europe or wherever you choose to be. We have too many problems for you to come and start chatting trash here.

We all know why you speak this way.... I gueas human brain needs restructuring also.

DOMAWOLEYE:
I respect Chimamanda for her literary prowess. But this her feminist fight i think is targeted at gaining relevance internationally, she also supports gay-ism and lesbianism. She knows her game and it is paying her internationally.

That one?
She however opposes transgender women; because they were once men.
Her hypocrisy is legendary!

I condemn dis senseless statement frm Adichie.
Many Nigerians respect people like Adichie, not for any tangible achievement but simply because some foreign people celebrate her. Many hav never even read any of her books. This reminds me of d kind of respect I used to hav for Okonjo-iweala until she came to Nigeria & superintended over d most corrupt economy in our history.
We need to purge ourselves of colonial/inferior mentality. Because a white person celebrates someone does not necessarily mean we hav to blindly respect them.

The attacks on Diezani is too much. It is because she is a woman and also from a minority tribe. Those who make money from oil wells in Bayelsa are also official thieves. Injustice must be addressed in the case of individuals making millions of dollars from oil wells giving out their children out to themselves & people in corridor of power to secure their wells.

jejemanito:
I admire your "intelligence."

Ibori's "prison sentence" is a much softer punishment than the honeymoon Madueke is currently enjoying overseas while the hardest thing to have hit her is the senseless "media trial" EFCC is battling to keep alive.

I admire your intelligence!

Where the Bleep do you guys crawl from?

Please find somewhere chilled to read that statement again. If you don't understand ask for help.

PS: it has nothing to do with sentencing.

SHE IS PROBABLY SAYING WE SHOULD STOP TRUSTING WOMEN AND EXPECTING SO MUCH FROM THEM

Goke7:


she is following chinua achebe's footsteps who goofed at the end with the last book he wrote, any surprise?

How did Chinua goof? Was his allegations about Awolowo false?

Sentencing has nothing to do with "shaming."

OK.

She should go siddon for her husband house and learn! We no dey inside Purple Hibiscus. This is reality! A woman who had the effrontery to plunder a whole nation at the detriment of poor hapless Nigerian citizens. Does she care about the hapless dotting children who are hungry and scattered all-over the nation? And here she's sentimentalizing! Chimananda, I'm a fan but the Diezani matter is beyond feminist theorist explanation. It's about the much plundered Nigerian masses. Oma!

She should stick to story telling. Politics of extreme feminism will not help her image.

she pass every body in ur village including ur emirs plus malams and alhajis hajias she pass all of them put together

Ore000:
ok, what are you trying to say
Ibori that went to prison is now a haemaphrodite

Was it the Nigerian justice system that sent him to prison?

Kingspin:
We all know why you speak this way.... I gueas human brain needs restructuring also.

You do not possess enough braincells to I understand why I speak the way I do. Go play with your set.

Afam4eva:

It's because Ibori was from the Niger Delta.

dasuki is from where?

How so? Educate me.
