Chimamanda should mind her business.
Perhaps being a wife is important to Hillary.
That's her preference. Isn't that what feminist is about? To have preferences?

The issue with these 3rd wave feminist like Chimamanda is that they never quite know when to stop and when to continue. Y becomes an ego thing with them, and less about the people they claim to be fighting for.

Eeyah, what a poor lady, o ranti ile.

I could feel your pain, dear.
You remember the pikin of whom you are.

Meanwhile, I doubt if it ever crossed the heart of that lady Cuppy that she brings shame upon her family.

Truly, pikin differs from pikintongue



There is no shame in being yourself.

Poverty is the only disease that restrains people from truly expressing themselves especially when it comes to making a career choice.

Over 80% of your so-called professionals chose their career based on the financial incentives attached to the role.

Besides, the lady came to earth alone and would die from earth alone, so why should she live to massage other people's ego at the expense of her own happiness and fulfilment in life?

Please respect the decisions that she has taken.

TO EVERY IGBOS and other good thinking people.
I feel so sad reading this
They want to break this woman down by all means. angry
I think all IGBOS online should wise up and protect this woman.
Chimmamnda Adichie is a proud igbo woman who has put Nigeria and especially igbos on the world map , with her achievements.. But what does she get in return.
BASHING INSULTS, FALSE ACCUSATIONS OF THINGS SHE DIDNT SAY.. NAME CALLING AND AND ALL SORTS.
They change the real meaning of FEMINIST to suit themselves just to pull this amazing woman down.

igbos be wise and protect ur daughter, some people are jealous..
If chimamanda were their daughter they would have hyped her to heigh heavens.
FELA WAS A BAD EXAMPLE TO THE INTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY YET THEY HYPED HIM TO THE EXTENT NO1 REMEMBER HIM FOR HIS DIRTY SIDES ANYMORE

IGBOS BE WISE AND DONT LET THESE PEOPLE OUTSMART U IN MIND GAMES..
STOP LETTING THEM DICTATE FOR U.

IGBOS BE WISE,!!..IGBOS BE WISE!!!.. IGBOS BE WISE.!!!! angry

This is so true, my thoughts exactly. Many didn't read the content, by their comment you'd know. No matter how you don't like the ideology, she's Nigerian and a global sweetheart. I remember emir of Kano addressed her, it was such a mature letter. But I see Nigerians talking gibberishly about her it feels so wrong in all dimensions I mean you're not meant to agree with everything but okay!

I'm not comparing them. Read my post again u will understand my point.
And to tell u there truth FELA WAS A VERY BAD EXAMPLE.. he taught most of our young musicians they way they follow now.
From smoking week on stage to, having sex with women on stage and handling them.
Plus other dirty things.
To the extent ur people hyped him and have a FELA SHRINE in his name.. Where they continue all the atrocities he left and die
He thohht them the way they follow, like seriously. You mean he took them to class n started teaching them? They why can't you follow suit? Why did you too not follow suite. Lol, i think he is also the one that thought you people robbery, ritualism, kidnapping, rape and drug peddling grin

I have read the book, stop lying against her.
Just say u dnt understand the content of the book.
U are so quick to condemn a book she wrote which is not based on sex as u claimed, but quick to be part of thongs who sing praises of fela. A known porn actor and chain weed smoker who influenced our young musicians negatively hiding behind music.

U Nigerians are dumb shameless hypocrites.
Tufia!! I spit.
The dumbness of our youths today is why the leaders we had since 1960 are the one still recycling and ruling.
Because they easily manipulate u with the media became u guys easily follow the crowd but refused to find out the truth urself.

Only a brain dead and evil fellow will sing praises of fela and see him as an icon but condemns chimamanda because they dont understand what FEMINISM really means.


ITS A SHAME!

Ask them o! Like I said many whether for or against her haven't even read her book! Trying to sell us stories of people that went to America and became somehow somehow! She wants to please Americans while still being all I am African and Nigerian. Madam shd choose one abeg. There was Chinua Achebe! Buchi Emecheta I dnt think they will be proud of her writings. This one she isn't rethinking Nigeria, who cares. We like our Naija o. I could never live anywhere else, it's not rosy but it's alright.

Magichand:
Renowned Nigerian author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, has expressed how saddened she felt about the backlash her question to Hillary Clinton, an American politician, generated on social media, particularly among Nigerians.

Speaking to a group of young Nigerians during a hangout session in Lagos on Saturday, Adichie said she was surprised about the reaction the question generated, noting that it made her sad seeing her parents read horrible things Nigerians said about her. In an interview with Hilary Clinton, the author, whose work has gained recognition, including winning the Orange Prize award, asked the female politician why she had described herself first as a ‘wife’ before other things on her social media bio.

This question, which Adichie said she considered harmless, brought backlash from Nigerians, including celebrities, many of which were premised on the notion that the reference in her question was a negative example for thousands of Nigerian women who follow the author religiously.

Adiche said she felt sad seeing her parents read the negative comments thrown at her. “watching my mother, I felt close to tears,” she said. Adichie, whose clapback at a French journalist who had asked her if there were libraries in Nigeria warmed her to the hearts of many, said the episode made her begin to rethink how she felt about Nigeria.

When I got back to Lagos and there is just all of this noise and apparently it’s just all of ugliness, people said to me: 'they are writing public letters to you. They said you are a demon; that you want to break up marriages, all kinds of things. I felt. Let me be honest, that is the first time I really started to rethink how I felt about Nigeria.

I have never done that before. Until then, I had been a very dutiful daughter of Nigeria and I am still at that phase where I am thinking about how I really, really feel about Nigeria.”


She however explained she had asked the question for political reasons. She said: “quite frankly, the reason I asked that is that it was a political thing, particularly in the contest of Hilary Clinton a woman who had to change her name and take her husband’s name because people would not vote for her husband if she had kept her name.

A woman that for many Americans they still need to see a woman in domestic terms before they can concede a little power to her politically. We don’t think that of men.”
