Hey guys, enough of all these. My Yoruba bros, let us work toward having a state called Awo. It is the most logical thing in the world; how come we haven't done that decades after Awo's death? |

Collateral damage by wiki: Used euphemistically to refer to inadvertent casualties and destruction in civilian areas in the course of military operations. |

shymexx:Isn't it common sense? Awo was a tribal leader of some sort so to the eye of the average easterner, it would mean that. But that doesn't necessarily mean it's true. At least we'll never know that. That's why it's a personal opinion. That's something you guys have to deal with. |
Re: Why Is Prof Achebe's Name On NL Hall Of Shame? by coogar: 11:11pm On Dec 23, 2012 |
afam4eva: so awo being a tribal leader wanted to lead the eastern region or what the heck are you talking about? afam's brains have gone back to making the usual 21-fart salute! 2 Likes |

afam4eva: The backlash he's going is also something you lot will also have to deal with... PS: My pops and his late older brother fought in the war(I have alluded to this several times on this forum) and the Nigerian civil war will always be a topic of interest to me... |

I'v read thru some comments and seen the argument go back and forth. These arguements can continue forever with no side willing to admit anything. However, two factors VINDICATE the Igbos and Achebe. 1)One is the ROT that Nigeria is today. The loose federal structure(the Aburi Accord) proposed by Ojukwu would have made Nig see much more progress. 2) the fact that Nig will sooner or later disintegrate to pieces If only Awo had not been blinded by desperation to rule united Nig, he would have for seen that the far north has NOTHING IN COMMON with the south |

Sincere 9gerian: I'v read thru some comments and seen the argument go back and forth. This arguement can continue forever with no side willing to admit anything. However, two factors VINDICATE the Igbos and Achebe. nothing vindicates the igbos/achebe!
33.33% of the rot that nigeria is today is caused by ndigbos.....so what's your point?
it would never happen. 500 yrs from now, your great great grandsons would be wondering when nigeria would break up. |

What Prof Achebe published recently was just a memoir-his personal account of what he saw juring the war. He hasn't written a book about the war. Anyway, just wait for Col Achuzia's publication coming out soon. |

Andre Uweh: i am not one of them though - i bought the book the very day it was released on apple store......there are more fables in it than the real truths. |

Andre Uweh: What Prof Achebe published recently was just a memoir-his personal account of what he saw juring the war. He hasn't written a book about the war. And Achebe is being criticized for the opinion he claims to have. Go out and say In your Andre uweh Opinion Osama was right in bombing America or say Hitler was right in killing Jews and just say its your opinion and it has to be respected. Achebe more than anyone else deserves this award So Andre uweh go and do the right thing with your other 4 monickers Abadaba, Ngodiha tomakint Go and vote Achebe into the Nairaland Hall of Shame and May Chukwu bless you for towing the path of reason [size=18pt]ACHEBE FOR HALL OF SHAME[/size]. Lame, Lonely Bigot |
Re: Why Is Prof Achebe's Name On NL Hall Of Shame? by Nobody: 1:25am On Dec 24, 2012 |
I initially bought Achebe's book, but I had to return/exchange it for five great books("Why We Struck" by Adewale Ademoyega is already in the post, should get it tomorrow)... Enjoy!
