This piece of work was just wonderful. I haven't read her books before, but I think I'll start doing so.
I could never write anything with a Nigerian theme, be it fiction or not. But now I'm inspired.
Wow

Commendable! She did not come out to rant nor curse!!! Instead, sarcastically, dramatically she proffered possible solutions to the problem!!! And written in a manner that even a secondary school student can decipher!!! I stayed glued after the first paragraph, like a move yet message so intense and resounding!!! OGA JONA, PLEASE LISTEN TO THE VOICE OF REASONING! These are very strong points!!!

Chubhie: If you as a youth feel handicapped, There are other Better youths more worthy to run stuffs and will seize the moment when the time is right.

I am a better youth, not because I am a saint but because I strongly believe we are the agent of change the future is waiting for. I pray the right time comes fast.

When Chimanmanda's pen drip with such satirical profundity, one can only hope that her deep thoughts rekindles our sense of patriotism for our dear country. An absolutely fantastic epistle, God bless Nigeria!

I hate you!!! that was a joke...but ogbeni,there is nothing bad about what she wrote na

You're probably right. Maybe there's nothing bad in what she wrote. I wasn't critiquing what she wrote. I say ehn, that woman is getting more clout than she should in Nigeria. You can see how some have abused me on my comment as I said they would. Ah! WE HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO, IF EVER WE MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

Haha took my time to read this lovely epistle very funny I must say, also very subtle and humorous way of conveying the truth I do hope that oga Jona can read in between the lines....

Good one Chimamanda....

God bless Nigeria....

I like Chimamanda, but one thing I hate about her is her stance on gay marriage. She supported it and condemned Nigeria for passing the anti gay bill. I just pray she repent.

For those who find this too long to read, here is a summary.
She asked the President to wake up from sleep, he is surrounding himself with Idi_ots as advisers,He shouldn't have paid 1 million dollers to that foreign PR group. that even though there are critics against his government, not all of them are planning for his downfall and should be silenced. That yes some people said they will make the country ungovernable, but not every of his failure is their fault.He can win by working hard on developments. That he shouldn't be scared of the opposition, they are not formidable yet because the person that can defeat him amongst them will never be given the ticket. That he should be brave and travel to Borno as commander in chief to visit not only chibok girls, but the murdered 50 boys also. And finally, he should be president of Nigeria not clannish president. Finally not every northerner is a terrorist, he should stop the harassment of people across nigeria, not in his name. Finally no more committees please.

Excellent narratives....I was spell bound while reading it, a big kudos to the writer, you could find a career at writing situation comedy (sitcom). I know it is Chimamanda's work as am familiar with her write ups and this is not her writing style.
Re: Miraculous Delivery Of Oga Jonah By Chimamanda Adichie by nagoma(m): 12:54pm On Jul 20, 2014
A clueless incompetent President held hostage by a cabal that is as vicious as it is evil.

A remarkable satirical piece by CNA! My only wish is that the individuals concerned gets to read it.

kobonaire: I agree with you. There is so much waste in individually generating our power/water supply. We need to be able to achieve this though sadly with some form of government support given the infrastructure cost and size. I feel we should have the aim for becoming a member of the BRICS nations because many of these countries were probably worse of than Nigeria about 20-30 years ago.
Wt is special about the BRICS nations?Nigeria is already in their level or about to...south Africa is a member an nigerian has overtaking south Africa;wt puzzles me though-if we can achieve that wit epileptic power supply,then then our countries economy will definitely fly wit a regular and stable power-supply.

i encourage you to visit any of those countries to see their level of infrastructure development and human development.
Also note that you cannot just focus on GDP. There are other economic indicators: inflation, population below poverty line, unemployment, GDP per capita etc.
We are NOT far behind the BRICS nations but need a sustained effort to get to that level.

People fail to see this is a satirical dig to Jonathan's incompetence.

Surely if he had a clue, it wouldn't need a renowned author to dish out lines to him like you give to a child in reception.
