Renowned author, Chimamanda Adichie has called out the parish priest of the Catholic church in Aba who verbally attacked her over her comments about the catholic church.

This happened at her mother's funeral mass where she had reported to have walked out but later came in to explain the reasons for her actions and comments against some practices about the catholic church in Nigeria.

In her speech, she was seen speaking in her local dialect and point out why people should not be forced to donate money for launching.

Nobody is been forced to give money if they don't want in the catholic church
it's not a general thing, It's some Parish Priest as She said not Catholic Church as a general which I have personally experienced.

That everyone is keeping mum doesn't mean it's right.

This woman wahala no dey finish??
One thing after the other.

this woman wahala? why talking like this? Can you stand in her presence and state your
fact as a man to back up this your statement or you just wanted to type something.

if what she says does not mean anything to you it means a whole lot to many people who
go to church and have suffered so much in the hands of priests and pastors who are
supposed to be compassionate to everyone.
I myself and many others have suffered such. When the time comes the church will know
that THIS WOMAN WAHALA is smaller than what I will write and print and I promise every
word of it would be sworn truth.

I can relate with her pains. But that is one of the ways to get that money you have not been giving to the church before the burial. People take care of that church everyday while you are in the city. They sweep, dust, wash toilets, buy petrol for gen, cut grasses etc. The only thing abroad people (city) come back to do is burial. They come with their friends and enjoy the good environment in the church and take off. The next you will see them in that church is when another relative dies. This is very unfair to enjoy where you did not contribute, being that you have more resources than the people that are chipping in pennies and dime on weekly bases.

Someone would argue, burial mass is not the time, and I say to you, catch them at any other time if you can. I am familiar with some of the ways Catholic churches in the village operate. Sometimes, whenever they have lunching and fund raising, they do distribute envelopes and invitation cards to catholic families for donations but most of them are never returned. Ask Chidinma how many times in past has she returned an envelop from the church? She cannot deny that she has never received one as an adult child from a catholic family.

The fact is that nobody forces anybody to donate.


God bless you for this. For years I have been feeling bad about the way Churches always take advantage of burials or other occasions.
Now your points valid to an extent but what about the Church's head quarters support to local churches, why will a church in a small village be taxing the poor and sending it to bigger headquarters in cities.
I will need your input so as to help me have a better understanding.
