Ranchhoddas: Very vague statements.I guess judgement of the quality of a novel is a matter of opinion.Could you please point out some of these scientific and historical 'inaccuracies' you speak of. Just agree you were petty!!! The problems with most people is their inability to accept their blunders!!! I call it pride!!! I don't know you but it is not hard to know that you know very little about literary appreciation!!! Judging a writing is basically based on personal opinions. The opinions that eventually count are the strong ones!!! Go and read up on qualities of a good prose and educate yourself!!! Everyone has an opinion but it has to be strong to count!!! But to come here and judge the better writer using prolificacy and length of books is just lazy!!! Now, let us make something clear, if you were to judge a writing contest, how would you go about it? Would you judge using size and the previous publication history of the author or what? |

playtheblues: Both of them are Igbos. God is wonderful. Stop being tribalistic!!! You forget that Africa's first Nobel laureate in literature is a Yoruba man from Ogun state!!! And a fine and prolific writer too!!! And that fine writers like Zaynab Alkali and Abubakar Gimba are from the North!!! So, it is not about the tribe but the gift and sacrifice and sweat of the individual!!! When Wole Soyinka rose to collect his Nobel prize medal in 1986, the givers of the coveted prize never saw a Yoruba man but a proud Nigerian in his native clothes!!! |

Ranchhoddas: What are your own parameters? A good prose is not about length but quality, composition, believability, powerful style of writing and lots more!!! Judging the strength of a writer by their prolificacy and the size of their writing is petty!!! Dan Brown's books are large but filled with scientific and historic inaccuracies and weak and ambiguous sentences!!! Dan Brown is prolific and popular, the quality of his books are not much to write home about!!! Adichie is good but in terms of quality and presence of style and strong believable characters, Achebe was better!!! It is hard to actually copy Achebe's simple and compact style. His prose is smooth and almost flawless!!! Achebe was a master writer!!! It is for a strong reason that he is so much respected even though he didn't publish much and his books were compact!!! |

ziggymelosky: I have read both Chimamanda Adichies books and Chinua Achebe's books.I must say Chimamanda is a more prolific n wordy writer than Chinua... Prolific and wordy do not make a good writer!!! Your parameters have damaged this thread already!!! Adichie produces voluminous works but she can't be said to be prolific yet!!! She has only published 3 novels and a collection of short stories!!! What is prolific about that. If you want prolific writers from Nigeria, check up on Wole Soyinka, Cyprian Ekwensi and Bayo Adebowale!!! Moreover, saying Adichie is more prolific than Achebe is wrong!!! In a space of less than 8 years, Achebe published four great novels!!! How many has Adichie published since she has been writing  Just three!!! She is good but not prolific yet!!! And yes, she is winning awards!!! But it is an insult to compare her with Achebe!!! Even if she wins the Nobel Prize one day, opening threads like this would be with discretion!!! 4 Likes |

 Oh, thank you for saving me the stress of searching for you!!! Now, listen, my child, life is so beautiful and love is a beautiful thing if you get the right sort of love!!! I see your eyes!!! It is filled with desires!!! But too many of them that you are conscious of only a few, mostly, and incomparably weightless ones!!! My role is to help you pigeonhole your desires and point out that which is all beautiful!!! I see you in the religious habiliments of a nun!!!

Politics › Re: Fulani Herdsmen Cause Accident On Lagos-Ibadan Expressway by hifaif1: 2:15pm On May 04, 2016 |
harbdulrasaq88: The Lagos state Police Command has called on those whose relatives are missing to come forward for possible identification of no fewer than 13 people who were reportedly killed in a fire incident at the Lotto area of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
The herdsmen fled the scene immediately as residents attempted to mob them.
The Lagos state Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi has confirmed the incident stating that, “The road was soaked with fuel after the tanker fell.
“The police and the fire service men were trying to neutralise the power of the petrol when fire broke out. The fire service truck, which was on duty, was the first to be burnt.
Four other persons were injured in the inferno, including an official of the Ogun State Fire Service, identified as Ayodele Adetayo.
The injured victims were said to have been rushed to private hospitals before being transferred to the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital.
Police officers attached to the Redemption Camp division were said to have removed the dead cows, and contacted Total to send another truck for fuel transfer.
Some residents came out and started scooping the fuel spilled into the gutter when a Sports Utility Vehicle, SUV, which had a burst tire drove on its rim and ignited a fire.
Fire then engulfed an 18-seater bus driving behind it, two Hilux vans, a Dangote truck and a fire service truck, which was rounding off operation.
The PPRO further added that, “No fewer than 13 people were burnt beyond recognition. About five vehicles were also burnt.
“We urge those whose relatives are missing to come forward for possible identification because for now we cannot recognise anybody,”Adejobi added.

Good afternoon, my children, I am happy to tell you that my mission here has been completed!!!
Allow me to give thanks to the One who sent me, the owner of this site who is also one of my children and every Nairalanders!!! Bless you!!!
Let me make a break down of how things have gone from when I started my evangelism to this day as I am a strong believer in transparency!!!
I created this profile in 2013 and remained dormant for more than a year praying from one mountain to another for successful evangelism!!! Here I am today, glad at this success!!!
Allow me also to state here that my campaign on Nairaland has been the most successful of all my campaigns!!!
When I began my evangelism, returns was slow!!! No one took me seriously!!! Everyone though I was mad or crazy or something like that. But I was determined to succeed. My secret is determination and a working strategy !!! And it paid off!!! Today, we have 2,000,000 Nairalanders who can't even wait to enter the convent among whom we have mrcork who is so zealous he has even promised to become a Franciscan monk!!!
Thank you, my children!!! Bless you all!!! |
