fyne_Ijay: Ol' boy, abeg ,no vex o. Its just that there has been so much uproar following obama's speech that he achebe drew the world closer. Ok, while this assertion might be debatable depending on individual's vintage position, however a poster asked this question and no one has given it much consideration. I, as a nigerian (at the moment) will also like to know how achebe has draw us closer to one another in his professional capacity. Afterall, charity they says, begins at home. Good that he drew the world closer but did he bother to draw his people closer to their immediate neighbours whom they share a country with? And if he did, how did he accomplish such a feat? |

fyne_Ijay:we know you're not literate, but behave like you're: must you attempt a question that is not forced on you with an answer you know is wrong? |

Ola Johnson: Omo, no be you make this comment? Ola Johnson: I threw the question based on the highlighted portion of your comment. The bolded shows that you do not discriminate between legitimate and illegitimate military targets. Since you have a twisted understanding of legitimate military target, I decided to go to the basics and ask you to "define leitimate military target". Did Achuzia attack civilians? Did Murtala Muhammed attack civilians? |

My reading of Chinua Achebe's There Was A Country, which I just finished, has given me a first hand information and confirmation of the lies some people said are in it when it was just published. Though being objective could not be easy, at least subjectivity should be reduced. But in the case of Chinua Achebe, it was glaring. |

ACM10: Be careful how u reply him. He may be here just here to derail this thread. When we have meaningful discusions on this forum, we should be careful of those who try to throw a thread off topic,so much that the original discussion will be unable to continue even though it may be intentional or unintentional. |

austinkenneth: Nobody can derail Achebe, the man is getting more and more popular, I heard the pope himself is preparing to make Achebe a saint........... suicide rate in the SW will just rise....... |

T8ksy: Meanwhile, back at the ranch, no one has been able to explain how exactly achebe drew his own country lets just assume you don't know, and that you are willing and sincere to know. Achebe brought a clear, original and unbiased understanding of africa to the world. He drew africa closer to the world. Africans have a rich culture, trade and commerce, defence, corrective and judiciary system, enduring system of govt, calendar system, religion, and values. Africans have strengths and flaws. Africans, like other races of humans, are simply and unapologetically human. 2 Likes |
