biaframaster200:Don't cover up your foolishness with tribalism. What is your argument, that Soyinka has been a political activist before she was born therefore she must agree with anything he said. First, she was trained in an environment where you are allowed to think freely, environment where you can criticize existing norms constructively. Listen to her to hear how she respectfully and constructively disagree with Soyinka on this matter. In all her discussion she constructively spoke to issues. Unlike APC supporters that will leave issues and be calling names to cover up their inability. Please I encourage you to listen to her before commenting. Thank you 2 Likes 2 Shares |

8by6incherr:In other words, Wole Soyinka should get involved in politics, as he has been doing, but Adichie should not? One gets stained in politics of retrogression. Soyinka's politics supporting an aged and obviously mentally-handicapped man to become president of Nigeria in the 21st century stains his reputation. Adichie's condemnation of a most deceptive and fraudulent presidential election cannot stain her reputation. |

danvon:But in the end the actions of the politicians affect everyone so what do you mean? Buhari supported his terrotist fulani brothers terrorise and kill Nigerians for good 8 years, so we should have all kept quiet because we are not politicians? Some people and warped reason are like bread and butter. |

Nzogbu people everywhere. Instead of Salamanda abi chimanda to rally round her brother ekweremadu whos about to join d long list of ibos in foreign prisons,she' and her deluded fans are busy fighting a lost battle. She effing letters she wrote to the US should have been channeled to d UK using her influence to plead for leniency for Ekweremadu. Awon radarada gbogbo |

ebenholer2:Many of you commenting here have not listened to the interview. She was motivated to participate fully in this election due to the continued promises from Inec on how they will use technology, and she was pained that after raising the hope of Nigeria, Inec willfully manipulated the process by himself, hence her write-up. Which indirectly means, I understand how Nigeria elections are before, Inec should have continued in that manner without raising the hope of the whole world for what he new from day one that they are going to manipulate. The problem with us in this country is that we blame the victim of a crime and allow the criminal to walk freely. Crime will never end in such country. 1 Like |

danvon:Please young man, is politics a profession? Politics is a vocation. No wonder some people cannot survive outside politics because they've seen it as a profession. In a real sense it should be a part time job, you serve and go back to your profession but no way, Nigerians so called politicians must die there, even maim and kill Nigerians for it. Everyone is a political animal no matter your profession. You know what those that are in custody of conducting election and those dispensing justice also have their own preferred candidates they would have wished to support but their positions handicapped them. |

MilitantAtheist: Argumentum and hominem...... When you don't have a point to argue, you insult the person. She is married with a child, your smear campaign against her person will not change the truth. Whenever we as a people chose to work with only the truth irrespective of our personal interest, then this country will grow. |

Because of tribal and religious sentiment, we now have a country where the victims of crime are being blamed while the criminal is allowed to walk freely. In such an environment, crimes will never end. The irony of this is if you are profiting from the criminals today, you will be a victim tomorrow. Criminals does not know tribe not religion. |

PStacks:look at your sense of reasoning, she has a house in Lagos, that means she should automatically support a drug lord, because the drug lord built the house for her.

Which one is it will stain her. The same mentality we have that has put this country Into mess. When good and intelligent people like you and other young great guys and ladies stay away from politics and we allow touts and thieves to get involves and rule us. We will never have a good nation if good people don't start speaking. Please let's start getting involve directly or indirectly support good people who are involve.

Millimann:Soyinka is already old. He has achieved all there is in his career. He has reached the point where controversy can do little or no damage to his reputation. She's the one that still has a lot at stake. She's young and upcoming (believe it or not). |
