all4naija: Let's stop looking at what Achebe did or didn't do and concentrate on his achievements as a prolific writer, with lots of works to recommend for our schools. Nobody lives for eternity and for that, we should strive to make sure we use the little time available to us to contribute good to our society. Recommend lies like "there was a country " to Nigerian schools ? Haba bros biko 1 Like |

0lumide: Exactly what has Achebe done to help development in Africa? What has he done?Are you okay? Do you know that the white men thought africans were devoid of decency,reasoning and humanity,until achebe challenged them?. Do you know that the reason why he never won a nobel prize atleast once, was because he had the effontery to call joseph conrad,the author of heart of darkness(A hero of white supremacists) a racist? Achebe has long transcended the mortal realm of tribal,and nationalistic sentiments. He is a pan-african hero. The only person worthy to be compared to him in the whole of Africa is Nelson mandela. 12 Likes |

The world population is 6 billion. The Yoruba population is about 0.1 percent of that. So who gives a rat's ass about your opinion? The entire world knows the truth and is busy eulogizing Achebe and his good works. Your tiny 0.1 percent of ranters can continue ranting ad infinitum. it's just like a drop of acid in the ocean. It is just like a noise made by a fool, signifying nothing. Una Goodnight joo. 3 Likes |

All I can say is WOW at this thread. Yesterday, all the news channels were talking about the death of Professor Achebe and some bigots have the nerve what did he actually do to promote "development" in Nigeria. Some of these Yorubas are filled with nothing but hate. 3 Likes |

Chinua Achebe brought pride to all of AFRICA. Not only are Nigerians in debt to him, but all of Africa. Thankfully most Africans realize this except for some members of a certain tribe who see nothing good from his people. When people talk about hate, you can just read this thread and see how one group can hate another with a passion. 3 Likes |
