Chimamanda Adichie Speaks Pidgin English, Reveals What Feminism Means To Her by Tessyama1: 8:24am On Oct 04, 2018
Nigerian novelist, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was a guest on BBC pidgin recently, and she pointed out what feminism means to her.

Her main point, according to her, she wants people to start talking about how men and women are equal, and how women would not be deprived of things. 

See some of her points and watch the video below....

1. Men and women are equal, simple
2. Women to inherit properties
3. Nigerian women to have the right to give their foreign husband's Nigerian citizenship
4. Men to help their wives with domestic chores

Let her take her feminist views to Europe and America. We do not need them here since they do not fit into our culture

that idea and mentality of yours can only thrive in the more complex and sophisticated societies i.e the western world. feminism is gonna be near impossible to implement in africa

This lady just keep insulting her husband with this cause she is championing.I guess she is oblivious to the fact that true feminists oppose the institution of marriage because they see it as a way of keeping a woman in a bondage.Marriage to them underpins patriarchy they frown at.The fact that she is happily married to a man alone belies the feminism cause she is espousing.
Staying abroad has made her lose touch with what is obtainable here in Africa and has also given her the leeway to advocate this her cause.Maybe she trying to appeal to the westerners because as far as I am concerned I doubt if feminism can gain a foothold in Africa here.It totally runs foul of our cultures and traditions.

wow
I love Chimaamanda!
I love Chimaamanda!!
I love Chimaamanda!!!


My love for her is like copied assignments, I just can't explain 'em. smiley
This lady is always making sense, but the typical Nairalander is blinded by culture.
Attack her and she keeps going viral.
Keep on hating and she keeps gracing the fp.

Have you ever asked yourself who made those culture you live to fulfill?
Did they fall from the sky?
Can't they be amended?

Feminism is simply, EQUALITY OF THE BOTH SEXES! I'm a guy and I support it 100%. Don't cheat me and I'd never cheat you.
It's as simple as that. No one chose which sexes they were born with, so why should one be superior?

If you're quoting me, please make some sense. That's all I have to say!

Her demand are not feminism rather core human values.

Which one those demands would you want to or encourage the government to deprive your loving daughters?

Should number two even be an issue? Why won't a female child inherit from her own parents? Just imagine.

If you refuse to live for something, you will die for nothing. I respect de fact that she's living to fight for a cause she believes in...it doesn't matter if she's wright or wrong.
