In a video interview, she said she supports Peter Obi because she is an Igbo woman and Peter Obi is Igbo.
That's bullshit. I've not seen such video and from her level of intelligence I doubt she will say something like that. If she ever said such it will be on the front page of Nairaland. And you are quoting an anti gay law instead of posting the video.

You may not agree with her but don't sell any propaganda in her name. I don't agree with Soyinka but I can't any propaganda that he is tribalistic. It is a simplistic argument without any thought or evidence. You are free to disagree with her but you shouldn't manufacture stories that don't exist about her.

Why are senseless people giving this useless lesbian olosho attention? Because they're senseless, Imagine the bitch saying inec is fascist for referring aggrieved parties to court, imagine the bitch saying Prof made wrong use of the word when actually the ugly looking Mauritania man and obidiiots are threatening the CJN, Nigerian state and the President. This bitch is crazy, hopeless LOSERS

How stupid does this sound? Accountants (like Tinubu claims to be), should be accountants and leave politics for politicians. Traders (like Peter Obi) should be traders and leave politics for politicians. Terrorists like Shettimad should be terrorists and leave politics for politicians.

Some of you can be conveniently idiotic when you want to twist a narrative to suit your perverse interests.

She should channel her energy to ipob, one begins to wonder why she was not vocal against the Monday sit at home and the mass murder in the east by ugm. Would she have aired her opinion if the winner was from the west or north? She loves to hate Nigeria we don't need her bigotry opinion.
All her opinions should be forwarded to emma powerful.
Long live Peter Obi.
Is she the president of Nigeria that swore an oath to secure the country? You people will leave your problems and be focusing on something else. Only in Nigeria you will see people blaming their rich uncle for not taking them out of poverty even though they are lazy

It was General Gowon who said during the War

that the Educated ones were far more Tribalistic than the uneducated ones

It is a very strange phenomenon that Social Scientists need to get to the root of

and unravel it ,

it may likely be a Legacy of the Superiority Complex induced by the Centuries old Osu Caste System
which saw some People as a Master Race

Not even in your wildest dreams.

What I don't like about her. She can be tribalistic and her love for gayism stuff puts people off.



In a video interview, she said she supports Peter Obi because she is an Igbo woman and Peter Obi is Igbo.

And the Yorubas who support Tinubu are what again? Fans?.

SO WHY SHOULD A SANE PERSON BE WRITING ANOTHER COUNTRY PRESIDENT AGAINST HIS COUNTRY OF BIRTH...SO IS SHE PORTRAYING AMERICAN PRESIDENT AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE WHOLE WORLD. THIS IS HIGHLY DEMEANING FROM ADICHIE HONESTLY.
I WILL NOT IN ANYWAY SUPPORT SOYINKA NOR ADICHIE BUT SEEM UNHAPPY THAT SOMEONE SHOULD BE UNDERMINING THE NIGERIA SOVEREIGNTY BY WRITING ANOTHER COUNTRY PRESIDENT AGAINST HIS COUNTRY. ABSOLUTELY NONSENSICAL.

Oh I see on same arise interview matters. Good to see that she disagreed and not start treating people to boycott his book just because of hatred that some people grow up with. She has the right to disagree, it's her opinion and she is noted for that.
Wole is like a father to her in all ramifications and she won't descend so low to insult him just they way some want to create serious rancour between a father and a daughter. grin grin

So basically you were expecting an insult and got disappointed. Im definitely sure u will be happy when tinubu gets into power and shut down arise tv owned by a yoruba man.

You grew up stewed in hatred, and spewing provocative hatred all over the place with the scheme in Nigeria to sideline a major ethnic group in Nigeria from apex political leadership of Nigeria.

The hatred being spewed is like putting Nigeria on autodestruct mode.

A man and a woman shouldn’t debate. That’s why Wole Soyinka chose to debate with Datti. She should find a woman like her to debate.

Men and women debate all over the world...!

What sort of primitive talk is that?!!

The misogynistic statements some of you Nigerian youths make these days, even online make people out there think the nation is still in the Dark ages of prehistoric times!

Let her go to Arise TV and speak...instead of staying on Twitter and disagreeing pointlessly...

Adichie wants to be useless herself. Soyinka has been a political activist since when was in secondary school....she now thought because she has bagged one eye literature title she can be disagreeing based on hatred and envy of what Soyinka has said.....

Let us know Adieche's stands....is she a political activist or current affairs analyst or just disagreeing out of tribal sentiment.....

It is obvious that you are the bitch here as you cannot argue constructively without calling names and raining abuses. Again, Inec is fascist because, you cannot deliberately commit a crime and ask the victim to go court.

So having an opinion on national issues means involving in politics. Nigerian politician have been destroying this country for years and you want everybody to keep quiet and allow only the politician to be doing and talking.

Lol. You see, when you hate someone it adds nothing to your success when others hate them too. You are been less logical and more emotional.

These things have root in the primitive shoots of man. One word I can agree with when describing her would be CONTROVERSIAL. And it is easy to be that in a world full of primitive people.

It's normal,we cant agree on every national issue.
Some headless mobs r say chidinma abi chimanda will disgrace Soyinka in a debate.
I am sure Chimanda will take a debate with baba as a free class and Soyinka would teach her many things she Neva seen or read anywhere b4.
Even what her Father did not know wole would tell her.....baba is very intelligent and loaded.... Chimanda is brilliant thou

What surprises most about Adichie is that she had remained quiet until now that his brother happened to be one of the contestants. No write ups nor petition against persistent misgovernance in place in the nation for decades now but now hysterically woke to shed the crocodile tears. This is an hypocrisy.
