When you have value and high standards, you can't be easily swayed by little things

How do you expect an international figure like Adichie to be on the same platform as Adamu Adamu, the current minister of Education, who is being honored while the Nigerian universities are on the 8 months strike

The national award has become a joke

No scientists were honored in the list, no doctor, no accountant, no lecturer, no engineer

Just politicians being honored for being affiliated with party politics

The national award is not a joke. Dr Stella Adadevoh was given a posthumous honour. TuFace, Teni and Kwam 1 were honoured. Several professors were honoured, among them scientists and engineers. Educationists too. Professor Biande who received GCON was a former Vice Chancellor of one of the Federal Universities in the North and DG of NIPSS, Kuru.

Please do some research before commenting on things, despite your hatred for Buhari.

One i.diot up there in a calling Chimamanda Adichie a bitch for declining the award.


Yes, she is a bitch to some, and a goddess to some like you. It is called choice and every human is entitled to their own.

She did the right thing. Critics would always be critics. If she had collected the awards and still condemned Buhari critical would still be salivating over her matter.

Igbos are the only tribe that are blunt, strict and decisive in their actions. Very Straight forward people. They even go far as condemning their own in public to even serving them beating if they mess up.

That's why I would vote Peter Obi. The man that has been direct, bold and courageous in his doings.
When he says he would tackle Security heads on and decisively, trust me he means it.

He was responsible for kidnap kingpin, Evans, disappearing from Anambra state.

He did it in Anambra state so I see no reason why he can't do it in Nigeria. The Restructuring alone he proposed is one easy way to achieve that.

Vote Peter Obi for a better Nigeria.
Vote wisely my people...

More intelligent and highly placed women like Okonjo Iweala and Aminat Muhammed were proud of the award. We don't want a politically motivated Obidient bitch ass and a mentally damaged feminist around our award.

Before you open your � condemning people's decision, try to know where they are coming from and what they stand on. Okonjo is a political figure hence, that award adds to her profile while the lady in question is don't really need that in her carrier.
People's decisions should be respected

Just tell yourself the truth, between the both of you, who is more intelligent?

Jokes apart, in all ramifications of life, omo this woman pass you.

Baba no vex say i just tell you the truth.

Do you think the fellow understands what it means to be intelligent?

And when you talk about life, has he started at all?

Olodos and NFAs take undue advantages of social media to abuse those who they would not even qualify as house helps in their homes.

You gave him the right response.

No well meaning Nigerian ought to have taken the award from this nonchalant, arrogant wicked president called Buhari.

Look at where Nigeria is presently.

This is where he brought us


Then he does award giveaway so as to delete his incompetence from the minds of the people.

Is all mind games

Cow president

That is not new. After all Achebe also rejected honour even from your hero Jonathan

Is she more international than Okonjo Iweala DG of WTO & Amina Muhammed Dy Secretary General of the UN abi?
Agreed it is within her right to accept or reject any award from whomever but your theory about his so called international status as reason for rejection does not make sense when you considered the fact that individuals with far better international status proudly accepting same.

Well, her choice - her Life.
If you had joined her in extremely demanding for good governance without fear or favor, maybe Nigeria would have been a better place for us all.

Igbos could reject the award because the man they love to hate but if Buhari was giving out drugs, I bet they won't reject it.
Coming from someone who supports a man that takes more drugs than food. A man who destroyed his youthfulness with cocaine and heroin. A push and start presidential candidate that can't hold a pen firmly.

Okonjo Iweala rejecting the award as an international economist who was supported by the Nigerian vote to become the WHO dg translates into entitlement and unappreciative

It is more like an they're preserving Nigerian image in the international community

Not for a private individual like Adichie who had never had anything to do with politics and was brought into limelight by excelling in her career

She did what us best for her conscience and believe Okonjo-Iweala and Amina Muhammed will probably do the same if I have no affiliation with politics
