Nov 23, 2009 - actually what she is saying is that nigeria is a tribal expression, thanks to the colonialist

PeaceUdo Says:
Oct 2, 2010 - I like the way you put it. I will use that. "Talking about someone's error as you're making your own." That is kind of cool. In an ironic way.

Jun 25, 2011 - @TheBashir85@TheBashir85 i am sure you are not money-minded and yoruba. it is always easier to see another as the bad apple. but inspite of having had more than half nigerian wealth you are still the same: ignorant and confused
TheBashir85 Says:
Jun 25, 2011 - Every one knows igbo are the worst people on earth, so keep proving,keep telling the world how stupid you are. No one in Nigeria wants to hear that word "Igbo" because it is the perfect word for disaster,a word of barbarism, evilness, lack of decorum, greed, fraud, just name it. Keep writing that rubbish! I know you are worst than a giant piece of shit!!

Jun 30, 2011 - The danger of a single story is the theme of one of Chimamanda Adichie's stories. Every race or tribe or group has its bad stories and good stories. If you think all Igbos are bad, one can take one story and equate to all. I have some example: Olajide Noibi, is all over the news today. He is Yoruba, so does that make every yoruba a scammer? So he who leaves in glass houses should not cast stones carelessly

Oct 13, 2011 - I love this book, it is the first short story collection, I've ever enjoyed!

Jan 5, 2012 - I'm a big fan of Chimamanda Adichie! As a college professor teaching about multiculturalism, I often use her amazing video "The danger of a single story", and my students are usually touched by her ideas and rethorics. We have long debates about cultures and ethnocentric visions of the world, and I'm really thankful for her work and sharing of knowledge. Amazing woman and thinker!
selmabrasil Says:
Jan 5, 2012 - It's a pitty that you think that, and that you can bear such ignorance and prejudice in your heart. History has showed over and over again the effects of minds like yours. The greatest challenge in the 21st century remains to learn how to share this world with equality. You're far from achiving this goal...
charioma56 Says:
Feb 10, 2012 - I came across one of Chimamanda Adichie's novels by chance and since then, I've been reading her novels which I love very, very much. Kudos to you and may God help and protect you so that you will continue to achieve your goals more and more and more.
