I’m sure they wife won’t care as she has already checked out. By the time the new wife tells him 75k is not enough for feeding and he still has to spend for the maids/wife personal maintenance, something he’s not doing right now, he will run into much more heartache. Lol.
so he should continue to take the bullshiiiiiit from a woman who is just occupying space in his house? A log of wood for that matter

Politics › Drag Soyinka You Want To Drag Him, Just Leave Chinua Achebe’s Name Out by Enemyofpeace(op):
Chinua Achebe was a novelist. Wole Soyinka is a playwright. I know most of you didn’t know this, but there is really no basis for comparison between the two. It’s like comparing Sunny Ade and Oliver De Coque because they are both singers.

Chinua Achebe also deserved the Nobel Prize no doubt, but he never won it. Wole Soyinka won it in 1986. That award has been in existence since 1901. If the award committee wanted to give it to Chinua Achebe, they would have given him the prize long before Soyinka won it in 1986. Achebe died in 2013 - 27 solid years after Soyinka won the prize. The committee still didn’t give him the award; and you are here saying Soyinka “stole” the award that Achebe should have received.

Chinua Achebe himself never lamented not receiving the prize because, believe it or not, the Nobel Prize, or any award for that matter, is not the true measure of achievement for a writer. No African novel has sold more copies and has been translated into as many languages as “Things Fall Apart”.

To measure Achebe’s accomplishments by whether he won the Nobel Prize or not belittles his work and insults his memory.

Incidentally, this same Wole Soyinka wrote in 2013: "This conduct is gross disservice to Chinua Achebe and disrespectful of the life-engrossing occupation known as literature. How did creative valuation descend to such banality? Do these people know what they're doing – they are inscribing Chinua's epitaph in the negative mode of thwarted expectations. I find that disgusting. Was it the Nobel that spurred a young writer, stung by Eurocentric portrayal of African reality, to put pen to paper and produce Things Fall Apart?"

You lot should leave literature alone for those of us who know its true worth, please. You all don’t read anyway. Why the sudden interest in who was a better writer as if you have bought or read any of their books?

Drag prof if you want to drag him, just leave Chinua Achebe’s name out of such frivolous comments, and let the dead continue to rest in peace!

Just Me… THINKING OUT LOUD!

This fellow who I don't know neither have I done any kind or form of business with is spamming the whole forum and telling everyone that I'm a scammer. I want you to ask him how or when I scammed him, and if he fails to show proof kindly ban him.

Since I registered this account it's only one female and two males I've chatted with outside Nairaland (WhatsApp) and I strongly believe that they can proof here that I've never discussed anything suspicious with them.

Kindly tell this hoodlum to provide proof of this allegation against me or face ban.

Thanks.

MikeofAfrica:
William Shakespeare wrote the most complicated novels in human history. Only sound students of literature understood the shakespeare's English.

Yet his books recorded a huge success in the world literally market. I was a Science student but I could remember reading Shakespeare's novels while in secondary school. I was later introduced to the edited version of his " Lamp tales from Shakespeare " which was easier to understand.

Hence the excuse that you are giving for the flop of Soyinka's books in the literally market does not hold water. If any of Soyinka books is a masterclass like Things fall Apart, it will be a hotcake in the literally market like Shakespeare books.

Soyinka is a good author but when it comes to natural talent in writing and literature, he is no where near Achebe. What Soyinka has going for him is a more expose knowledge of literature.

This is understandable since Achebe was a medical student before moving into literature. Hence Literature was not his first choice of carrier yet he became the greatest writer in the African continent.

Comparing Achebe and Soyinka is like comparing Okocha and Mikel Obi. Okocha is a more talented midfielder than Mikel but Mikel was more expose than Okocha. Hence Mikel won trophies that Okocha never won.

However even with those trophies, we all know that Okocha is better than Mikel. Similarly, even with the Nobel prize, we all know that Achebe is better than Soyinka.
