Shame on you for how you are ruining a thread like this. Big shame. Who cares if he is Igbo or Yoruba? If you are having difficulty focusing on his legacies, then you really should get a life so you can stop disgracing yourself in this manner.
Shame on you too grin. You are at liberty to ignore my comments if you think it would be diversionary.

I read the Palmwine Drinkard back then in secondary school. I still don't know what to make of that story. It was
very funny and scary at the same time. It had very long sentences with not too good grammatical construction. In all it was very entertaining.

Happy 100th Posthumous birthday Sir!
can you tell me where I can buy the book?

I can send you.

But has any one able to answer the three questions in the book?

Detective Tutuola, a fictional character in Law and Order SVU was named after Amos Tutuola. The show is in its 21st season. One of my favourite TV shows

Especially the part about that man that shaved the head of all the domestic animals in the village.
Lol. And where the woman got pregnant on her thumb. Sincerely the guy is a true palm wine drinkard. Considering how many kegs of palm he drank a day.
