Following her talk, Ms. Adichie appeared in conversation with Sophie Walker, Leader of the UK Women’s Equality Party.

This is lazy journalism. Even for a blogger, this is lazy. The intent of news is to inform not pictures. What was the content of her speech?
OP pay more attention to content.

I haven't listened to her before; but after this speech,I must say she's intelligent. Though most of her points are putting questions to nature. Women are not weak but definately not stronger or have equal strength as men; ofcos there are women stronger than some men but that doesn't mean all women have equal strength. Accepting her points on equality of traits in men and women is deceit.

Again, saying women are not "feeling" creatures is also deceit. We know men with boldness and adventure. Yes, some women are also bold but that doesn't mean it's a general trait. There are definately exceptions. I agree on her point that we are all humans but you cannot dispel the fact that we are products of traits. You will find this even in animals. That's why the world is what it is. Though trait issue has led to some extreme perspectives in our society which does not favour women in some areas; culturally and other wise of which I (in support of her point) would say has to be looked into but i think she's taking her points too far; ignoring the impact of traits or nature of both gender.

I used to admire her for her knowledge in the art of writing,but since her convoluted and incoherent rantings about feminism I no longer see as some kind of role model in anyway.
My people used to say:na small shit dey spoil person y***h.
Others may sing her praises but I no longer feel she is worth it.
Re: Chimamanda Adichie At Chatham House London, Delivered Keynote Address (Pics) by MXrap: 7:26am On Jul 01, 2018
Liar. You never admired or liked her all because of envy, frustration and bitterness. If i lied then show us evidence of where you admired her.

She is an Anambra headsman, an attention seeking opportunist who is just blowing her dead trumpet with the idiotic book she most definitely did not write. Ogun success stories don't force to be seen, when you see one you just know. Next time don't bring Ogun or Yoruba into your nonsense.
DREAMZZZ:
she is not from anambra she is from ogun state

Kid! go learn manners.
You were so closed-minded not to see were I wrote" I admired her to for her knowledge in writing" not her opinions.
Her opinions is her own manufactured thinking which I do not buy, but her writing skills is what I am talking about.
people like different persons for different reasons so don't try to impose your unalloyed love for her on me.

U speak some Arabic? Lol, stop lying. Who are u referring to as my brothers? U mean Fulanis? No, they r not because they r not practising the real Islam. The clash between Fulanis and farmers has been there for many years. But some politicians are also sponsoring people to kill in the name of herdsmen just to have something to use against buhari in 2019 because they believe that boko haram insurgency is the reason y buhari won the election in 2015. Every Muslim know that book haram and d herdsmen killings is unislamic. Politicians r using religion to disunite us in order to achieve their selfish interest, yet many of us did not understand. We r revenging the killing of innocent souls by the politicians by killing more innocent souls. There is nothing like Muslims butchering Christians. What most of us believe is what d politicians want us to believe.

U speak little Arabic, u dated islamic girl, what's islamic girl. U sabi lie no b small. In every religion there are black sheep, u can't take them as the example of what the religion itself looks like. U read online everyday about what the so called pastors and men of God are doing. Will u say that this nominal Christians and men of God are practising the real Christianity? the same thing is applicable to Islam.

You shock when I said that I understand some Arabic abi? if you sabi Arabic you for fit understand wetin i day talk.
i no sabi write am but i day speak am intermediate level.
i no say nigerian muslims no no the language. dem no day understand the koran. dem just day sing am like songs. and these arabs no believe say una be better muslims. can you believe that many arabs refuse to accept sudanese as arabs? hehehe. just because of the color o cos sudanese na egytians b4. and the white-skinned egyptians are sons and daughters of europeans.
dem don chase blacks in egypt to far south.
islamic girl na girl way believe in islam. na pigin is allowed. no distract us hehe.
i am also against the pastors. i am the first to condemn dem. if you read my posts i have been very critical of them too. but is plain to see that christians condemn pastors who misbehave. and the problem is that it is not the way on the other side. una no day fit to condemn the nonsense in una religion. that is why u guys are complicit of the crimes.
i no day lie for you. you no no me personally so no feel say i day lie yet. and yes if you feel say dem no day fork islmaic girls na lie be that. many nairaland here don disvirgin many sef. even for north many of my guys waste the babes well well. even in the core sharia states, those little girls are wild in bed. na the fear of death hold many of them. but the muslim girls for free country na better bedmatics. dem no day send. you find dem in the clubs sef. guy no think say those women na anything. when you find yourself in their environment you go run for fork. their tohto no be liongate. na slippery slope. is easy. if i want date those muslims girls this night gon ni i go get one knack am the next day.
so where are the good muslims. i don waka tire to find dem. i for don hear dem condemning the evil in islam. why are they afraid of condemning the evil perpetrated in the name of allah? why? I can post a thread on the evil by christians. can you post a thread on the evil by muslims? let us throw a challenge.
