Igbo backward?
You must be a joker.

Are you not ashame that someone that left Igbo land to your region is doing well more than your tribe person (Yoruba)

Check the percentage of house owners in Lagos Island between Igbos and Yorubas and tell me whose tribe is doing well between the two.

All the house in Lagos belong to Igbo, u will forever be a stranger in our land... Come and build house in our region, we go always welcome una, when u die, we go carry una dead body back to una village.

It's honorary...not academic..
Notwithstanding I haven't read her books but I have heard her speak..
She is very expressive,confident and outspoken just like Late Dora Akunyili..
I once watched a video where a French female interviewer asked her if we v got libraries in Nigeria.. grin
Chima gave her a punch in d face response..
Best attention to give to ladies like Chima..Prof Uju Anya when they criticize you is to ignore them..cos they have got a world behinnd them you will hardly please or convince

How old are you?
Soyinka has over 40 and stopped receiving since 2018. The highest award for any profession in the world is Noble prize. There is no basis for comparison between the two. The other is too small here her senior is. But , again she is a genius. I must admit this.

Chimamanda has Integrity but Soyinka doesn't. What could be worse than that?

You try as u dey try educate d headless mobs, but deep inside a part of me, I dey chuckle bcus as much as d obidients are concerned, u are talking to a reinforced wall. Whatever u say CANNOT enter their ears.

Don't be surprised when one of them extends their dicck-measuring adventure towards their private parts by saying that Ngozi's clitoris is longer than WS's penïs.

You go hear Tori Taya today!

The same period APC government destroyed Nigeria And Soyinka's fame started dipping

Intellectual ignorance is a terrible thing.
Prof. Wole Soyinka's fame has nothing to do with your local politics and stupidity.
He is forever the first African Nobel Laureate in Literature given to him in 1986 when he was 52.
He is a polymath and polyglot.
There has never been any black literary scholar like him in history.
Wole Soyinka is an institution in modern civilization.

There are more drug barons among Igbos than any other tribe in Africa.
I mean drug lords making millions of dollars.
What the President-Elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu paid back for heroin 20 years ago is what one Igbo drug lords makes annually today.

Are we all mxd must will always speak about culture, religion or tribe. why this daily quote "they oppose us because we are not part of their region" " We are supporting him/her because is the our own very son of this soil"

Adesanya won this week, he displayed Nigeria flag not as yoruba, S. Chukwueze scored the equaliser goal in first half and winning goal against Madrid the commentator The commentator named all the Nigerian football legends he could remember to acknowledge exceptional impact of him as a Nigerian not as any tribe.
Must we relate, analysis, or interpret other people's opinion on the ground of region or race.
We have a different aim
while Our leaders aim are the same to rule us by rotational policy from father to son.have any Nigerian arrested in diaspora regarded as a specific tribe rather, 'Nigerian caught with this or that'

Do you know who they call Joseph Spliglitz, Ben Benanki, Alan Greenspan, Ngozi okonjo just a few.
Find out what they studied and the impact they made .
Do you know why Nigerias debt was written off by Paris club during Obasanjo's regime.
Find out you go know why.
Do you know why Nigerias present debt can't be written off by thier creditors ??
That's the reason you need some sound people in your cabinet. This no be dey make tribal noise. A lot you don't know.
This same Peter Obi is a Havard alumni if you didn't know.

Obi that went for 2weeks course at Havard. Chai. Igbos are daaaaft.

It is not the type of people on a caninaye that warrants debt forgiveness. Get your facts right. It is lobbying and pleading and when the creditor sees that a country is truly poor, they write off debt on a compassionate ground.

Mind you, Paris Club is not government of Paris or France o. They are investors. Because olodo ni 98% eyin Yinminri omo iya oni gaari.

That's the major reason why he came out of school with a 3rd class degree.
False!

Prof. Wole Soyinka graduated with a Second Class Upper from the
University College Ibadan, NOT with a Third Class.

As far back as 2013, the brilliant WS had debunked that silly Third Class false rumor.

Soyinka that held up a radio station at gunpoint to prevent election rigging does not have integrity.

Soyinka that was in solitary confinment for 2 years does not have integrity.

Soyinka that Abacha passed a death sentence on does not have integrity.

Lived in exile for so many years...

All for what he believed in.

Gosh, you must be a neophyte.
This is so embarassing...

Or you think it is just by speaking English?

My dear, not when your opponents are facing you with the same insults and lack of decorum. Have you seen the type of comments targeted against the obidients? So I don't blame them. Like I said, if Soyinka was wise, that's not the place to talk and put himself into the fray. He should have just kept quiet like he had been.
From what I've seen so far, obidients are always the one that attack first especially once you don't support their candidate and this isn't right but undemocratic. election isn't a battlefield. if someone doesn't support your candidate stop using derogatory and vile words on that person.

I am a big Obi fan, but the average Obedient is churlish and uncouth.

It is actually quite disturbing.

I have washed my hands off them since.

You want to bully Nigerians into an Obi Presidency?
Is that not a recipe for anarchy.

APC's wrongdoings will not make me close my eyes to disgusting behaviour even if it is from Obi.

That's how fanaticism started with Trump and led to them storming the Capitol.
