Asked this because I read on Sun News that there will be lots of masquerades during his burial ceremony and that he will be buried at night. Was he a traditionalist? I though he was a Christian.

Who gives a forck if he's christian or not?? Did he write christian literature or he wrote african literature? Was he renowned for teaching christian doctrine or he's renowned for presenting the african story and culture??

Besides, does being a christian nullify ones ancestry? Let his earthly brothers honor him as they see fit, as a son of their phallus.

When Oyakhilome, Adeboye, Oyedepo, etc die, then you can celebrate them according to their life's profession. Chinua Achebe spent his life professing his Africaness.

I bow for dis kain christian mentality oo.

Well, u ar wrong. Because he wrote no Christian book doesnt mean he's nt a Christian. Again, been a Christian will indeed separate u from idolatrous pratices of ur people.
