Write your own book first before criticizing someone who has published his own. NO BE MOUTH,
pls.



This is not a contest. We are not in a contest with anyone. A book will drop definitely.

A book that was written with every ink flowing with prejudice and bias can not be taken seriously. Your impression of the said book even betrayed your unabashed and unhidden dislike and displeasure for GEJ. A journalist has written, it is left for us historians to put pen to paper and say it as it should be from historical point of view with minimal or no subjectivity.

1) There is no prejudice there as the writer based it on interviews with the subject/subjects and prevalent events. He also stated clearly that he had clearance to publish such interviews.

2) I am entitled to my opinion. You will realise that my post laid emphasis on how Nigerians are the victims. I also asked if Buhari is also going through the same shenanigans.

3) This is living history. It does not require any archival/ antiquated analysis. I am only giving my view. I do not need to gather material as you *historians" or "intellectuals " are fong d of doing. I read a book, I made my comments. Please feel free to include iit n your material when you want to put pen to paper in the year 3000.

4) Finally, a word of advise. If you have not read the book, do so and start from the foreword , not from Chapter 1. That is what intellectuals do. There you will find that Mr Adeniyi clearly stated that he interviewed people, made a follow up by submitting the material to them, just to make sure they agree with his submission before publishing it.

Historians/ intellectuals don't just put pen to paper on the spur of the moment. Stop spreading your ignorance here.

Sorry to burst your bubble , but you are not a student of history as you claim to be. I still maintain that whatever I said here is my own opinion. Let me even go further to advise you to publish your acvounnt that is devoid of "every flowing ink of prejudice and bias". You can write it with Akamu or draw soup.
