I mean University of Ibadan not you I, don't know y d computer changed it. and the character in the short story is not her but Ralindu. Am sorry to have said it as if its a true life story.

yeah she did talk about sex, but l think she's only trying to be natural. she was educated abroad after she left U.I half way through her medicine course. she must have been exposed to the blunt nature of writing as we have in the west. Even in her short stories, her depiction of sex organs is direct, as we have in "my mother, the crazy african" were she mentioned a boy handling with her breast. What's more, she's no kid, she's trying to tell it as it is and her fans ain't complaining.
i guess that her style with which she has to be known with. Hence you either accept her for who she is or not.
I think i like her.

Apart from Wole Soyinka, John Pepper Clark also wrote on Abiku. Would Have senr both to you but can't start typing it now. When am able to scan it, i will paste it for you. Both work is a master piece. it a way of anglicising the nigerian languages and showcasing our philosophy and belief to the world. I did English Literature in the University so am aquainted with literary works. Takia
