Well Achebe is nominated for Hall of Shame by majority of people who found him divisive.

I hope he win sha.

PROFESSOR BARTH NNAJI, he gave an honest fight to solve our electricity palaver.

No wonder...

Abomination. Close thread please.

Aigbofa:

Afam, let us be honest. The seed of what you see today on Nairaland was sown by your people. It was a relentless daily assaults on Yoruba and everything Yoruba by Igbos on this forum that got us to this point.

True talk.

More bad belle from the usual suspects.

berem: I have never heard Nairaland being mentioned on TV or Radio.I never read about it on nigerian dailies.why because it is a forum where the owner has made it a place to promote ethnic bigotry. Too Bad!! What a shame!

So how did you find your way here to register a username and post comment?? Did u sleep walked??

It seem as if anything that is not ibo created is not good for you guys even though you use it incessantly.

ypzilanti: Why is Chinua Achebe on Hall of Shame list?

Two reasons:

1. Misplaced ethnic and tribal solidarity.

2. Little education.

Misplaced ethnic and tribal solidarity based on concieved attack on the person of Awolowo who is regarded as a demi-god by Yorubas.

Little education is a big problem. This is because those who are attacking him do not understand that a memoir is a personal view. It is not a historical document. You are allowed to give insight to your personal views and thoughts.

Achebe personally experienced loss that you and I can never begin to comprehend. He attacked an opponent at the other side of the war. He did not attack all Yorubas. But in the warped thinking of e-bigots, its all one and the same.

Nonsense. Achebe is not the only Nigerian who experienced personal loss or whatever. We expected a person of his caliber to know better.

Shame on Achebe for using division to sell book.

Eko o ni baje!!!

Ile Yoruba o ni daju!!!

Let haters hate.

Because he is divisive. We expected people like him to foster unity.

negroid people?? Where did he learn that phrase from

Eko o ni baje. Ile Yoruba o ni daru!!!

Let haters hate.

FSU: So Yorubas in Enugu are offially beggars. Where on earth is land given free? Do Igbos in Yorubaland get free land? Do they even beg for any?

You're 4 years late. Close thread.

Chinua Achebe

Ileke-IdI:


H was added to make Yoruba learning/classes easier.

Originally, H is NOT a Yoruba alphabet, that's why H is hard for us to pronounce for us.

Stop it. H was part of the Yoruba alphabet right from the beginning. Way back since Ajayi Crowther wrote the the first Yoruba dictionary in 1843. Besides, words like hàn, halẹ̀, hù, hámọ́, hó have always been written with h.

kolexy:

There is no 'H' in Yoruba alphabet.

You're kidding right

A, B, D, E, Ẹ, F, G, Gb, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, Ọ, P, R, S, Ṣ, T, U, W, Y

JUO: THE JOURNEY WILL BE AROUND 20 T0 24 HRS. SIMPLE LOGIC: DIVIDE 1200KM (LENGTH OF THE ROAD) BY 50KPH (SPEED OF THE TRAIN) THE ANSWER IS 24HRS

Correct. It left Lagos Friday morning and arrived Kano Saturday morning. Not bad for N1,500.
