(L-R) John Pepper Clark, Chinua Achebe & Wole Soyinka @ Dodan Barracks to plead for the life of (soldier & poet) Major General Mamman Vatsa.

My father too die when I was in SS1 thank God now I am a graduate so therefore every one must test dead. To me is not a surprise, by the way who is this chinua achibe(the one that wrote that useless things fall apart) that all igbos are saying it can't be him as if is not human. Igbos no dey lean ur ojuku die, azikiwe die etc so what can stop this man not to follow suit.

If he's dead, He lived a fulfilling life, the envy of many. He should be celebrated even in death at a ripe old age of 82. Sail on, great one. Your books live on. Adieu.

All you guys ranting "It cant be true"
Do you want him to live forever?
He is 82 for God sake!
He has done better than many and for that, thank God for a life well spent

R.I.P Prof. <only if it is true>

Anything is possible...it may be a rumour,it may be as real as today.

hurricaneChris: This uselez thread shld be closed till d news is confirmed!

Also the mods who moved this thread to the front page shld be banned.

The mods don't move topics to frontpage. Its the supermods (semid4 and mukina) or the admin (seun).
What they care about is traffic to their site, without waiting for confirmation. They're gradually eroding the prestige of this site.

Same way they flooded the front page with unconfirmed rumours of NYsc increased allowee.

We're gradually turning to www.rumour-land. Datz all!

Pouring libation in honour...

But age gives to a man some things with the right hand even as it takes away others with the left. The torrent of an old man’s water may no longer smash into the bole of the roadside tree a full stride away as it once did but fall around his feet like a woman’s; but in return the eye of his mind is given wing to fly away beyond the familiar sights of the homestead.... - Anthills of the Savannah

He is not Dead... Don't know y losers who can't find a job will sit around on their sorry a.zz and wish death on people dey can never measure to. Sick people!
