I remember reading Bottled Leopard back in 1997 in my secondary school days and the meaning was lost on me until I read it in the 2000s and the meaning finally opened itself to me. I also read his Sunset at dawn which is an expository about the Biafra war. I read a lot of books from those African Writer Series back then and I can tell you that my best still remains ARROW OF GOD by CChinua Achebe. 2 Likes |

I was aware of this story not long after we entered 2019. I mean, how the professor's daughter in-law took away her son to where her husbands people won't have access to their son. I wonder why an african woman will make her son inaccessible to his people that he needs to connect with physically, emotional and spiritually. Even if she was bitter towards her husband when he was alive, it shouldn't make her not to make their son accessible to her father in-law. Before I forget, R.I.P Professor Chukwuemeka Ike. The only work from you that I have read is the Portal's Wheel; my father has so many of your works but law books have not given me breathing space to explore books from other field. Once again, journey well Professor. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Hisduchess: In as much as I agree that love alone is never enough, I also to not subscribe to that idea that one must marry from his tribe/village alone. The world has become global now and migration is at its peak.. If I can't find my village gal to marry where I go hustle, won't I marry another person I connect with? 4 Likes |

This is so pathetic, I shed tears while reading this, onbehalve of myself, my family and my entire great people of Kebbi State and Nigeria at large, the Princess should please bring out Price Ike II for him to asend the throne of his father. While the state government should intercede into this long time family feud for an amicable resolution. May soul of the departed rest in perfect peace. Long live the Ike' s lineage. 1 Like |
