bayinq25: you assume being rich (best schools, mansion, best cars) automatically makes one intelligent right? i have met more smart poor dudes than i have met intelligent rich dudes. intelligence is also subjective you know. he wrote that book in 2004 (albeit published in 2005). so when you say he has/had the funds his mum carted away, you mean the ones his mum stole during OBJs government. you also should realise this thread is about his book and the movie and not his mum's financial mismanagement nor about corruption, nor about APC/PDP. 5 Likes |

Uzodimma Iweala , proudly Nigerian, good book and an even better movie, but guess what in the book , the commandant played by Idris Elba was gay, but in the movie he wasn't depicted as gay. |

After her mother in collaboration with the villainous IMF/World Bank has destroyed the future and lives of millions of Nigerian youths, he comes here to tell us about Harvard and Child Soldiers. What a shame!! |

bayinq25: Dude I understand your frustrations, you are nothing but a looser. The okonjos did not prevent your palm wine and ogogoro drinking parents from sending you to havard neither did they prevent them from stealing to send you to MIT. I guess, if you had the opportunity, u would have stolen more. No one holy pass!!! 1 Like |

Nairaland's gone to the dogs, read all of the comment and most is utter bullshit. The thread js about the author and the movie. I'm not a fan of his mum but common guys, the interview is about his movie which is a good work of art, considering he was trained as a 'physician' (from what i read or maybe im wrong) Kudos to him! About the movie, i haven't had time to watch again but i don't really like the end of it, i was expecting a sweet ending! All in all it was quite intense. 1 Like |

bayinq25: Actually,being born with a silver spoon helps but doesn't mean for sure he'll be a successful novelist.Ever heard of Farouk Abdulmutallab? On the other hand,I watched the movie trailer and it really seems to be a must-watch. |

AzizG550:Stop the unnecessary hate. His Grandparents were both professors, they achieved that by working hard and remember his mother also earned enough to cater for his education while working at World Bank. |

bayinq25: When you put your utterance into perspective and recollect that someone some years ago became the first internationally reputed would-be suicide bomber from Nigeria- Abdul Mutallab- the son of a wealthy Nigerian (also a top banker in the country), who also schooled abroad, in UCL, one of the United Kingdom most prestigious University, it surely makes your utterance very foolish, one must say. |

obidevine:It was depicted in a scene when Idris Elba called him in after capturing the first village. He gave him a "special Juju" then took him inside, he asked to do something that was like a Blowj0b. The little boy came out feeling desecrated, defiled and was in tears when he came out to meet his friend "Striker". |
