After stealing our mandate

. Which mandate your papa get? 😂 😂

Good

Ok

Tinubu knows how to play politics. This man understands the rudiments of contemporary political cultures in Nigeria.

Tinubu is perpetually playing politics instead of governing.

He is not fit to be president but party chairman

TimeManager:
Obidients would be confused right now, some will praise him, some will still insult him, some will look back at what they said when he honoured Wole Soyinka and feel stupid.

-Kiss the truth!

Achebe probably would've rejected this offer if alive. He rejected acholades, honors, awards and even money numerous times in his days. He's not moved by those stuffs. People like that are the real men of integrity

Any notable person in your family?

NyamiriSlayer:
Who is achebe? a goat or a pig
Naming the road after cow is better than naming it after a worthle** man like achebe

Very great decisions and good news!
This is warming to the hearts, except those who are enemies of Nigeria.
Nigeria will be Great again!

A president that wants results
A minister that works for results
Nigeria will be better with this kind of hardworking bosses

FG is the referee and the score is 1:1

If he were to be alive, he will definitely reject this eye service. Why naming a street after him?

Ensa777:

Man just wants a country that is working.

You just made me laugh hard 😂🤣

Chinua Achebe was a Nigerian novelist who is best known for his novel "Things Fall Apart," which is a modern African masterpiece and was published in 1958 ¹ ² ³ ⁴ ⁵. His other works include the following novels ¹ ² ³ ⁵:


- "No Longer at Ease" (1960)
- "Arrow of God" (1964)
- "A Man of the People" (1966)
- "Anthills of the Savannah" (1987)
- "Home and Exile" (2000)
And Things fall Apart.


Born in 1930 in Ogidi, Colonial Nigeria, Achebe's childhood was influenced by both Igbo traditional culture and postcolonial Christianity. He excelled in school and attended what is now the University of Ibadan, where he became fiercely critical of how Western literature depicted Africa. Moving to Lagos after graduation, he worked for the Nigerian Broadcasting Service (NBS) and garnered international attention for his 1958 novel Things Fall Apart. In less than 10 years he would publish four further novels through the publisher Heinemann, with whom he began the Heinemann African Writers Series and galvanized the careers of African writers, such as Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o and Flora Nwapa.
Achebe sought to escape the colonial perspective that framed African literature at the time, and drew from the traditions of the Igbo people, Christian influences, and the clash of Western and African values to create a uniquely African voice. He wrote in and defended the use of English, describing it as a means to reach a broad audience, particularly readers of colonial nations. In 1975 he gave a controversial lecture, "An Image of Africa: Racism in Conrad's Heart of Darkness", which was a landmark in postcolonial discourse. Published in The Massachusetts Review, it featured criticism of Albert Schweitzer and Joseph Conrad, whom Achebe described as "a thoroughgoing racist." When the region of Biafra broke away from Nigeria in 1967, Achebe supported Biafran independence and acted as ambassador for the people of the movement. The subsequent Nigerian Civil War ravaged the populace, and he appealed to the people of Europe and the Americas for aid. When the Nigerian government retook the region in 1970, he involved himself in political parties but soon became disillusioned by his frustration over the continuous corruption and elitism he witnessed. He lived in the United States for several years in the 1970s, and returned to the US in 1990 after a car crash left him partially paralyzed. He stayed in the US in a nineteen-year tenure at Bard College as a professor of languages and literature.
Winning the 2007 Man Booker International Prize, from 2009 until his death he was Professor of African Studies at Brown University. Achebe's work has been extensively analyzed and a vast body of scholarly work discussing it has arisen. In addition to his seminal novels, Achebe's oeuvre includes numerous short stories, poetry, essays and children's books. A titled Igbo chief himself, his style relies heavily on the Igbo oral tradition, and combines straightforward narration with representations of folk stories, proverbs, and oratory. Among the many themes his works cover are culture and colonialism, masculinity and femininity, politics, and history. His legacy is celebrated annually at the Chinua Achebe Literary Festival.

Chinua Achebe was and baptised Albert Chinụalụmọgụ Achebe. His father, Isaiah Okafo Achebe, was a teacher and evangelist, and his mother, Janet Anaenechi Iloegbunam, was the daughter of a blacksmith from Awka, a leader among church women, and a vegetable farmer.His birthplace was Saint Simon's Church, Nneobi, which was near the Igbo village of Ogidi; the area was part of the British colony of Nigeria at the time. Isaiah was the nephew of Udoh Osinyi, a leader in Ogidi with a "reputation for tolerance"; orphaned as a young man, Isaiah was an early Ogidi convert to Christianity. Both Isaiah and Janet stood at a crossroads of traditional culture and Christian influence, which made a significant impact on the children, especially Chinua. His parents were converts to the Protestant Church Mission Society (CMS) in Nigeria. As such, Isaiah stopped practising Odinani, the religious practices of his ancestors, but continued to respect its traditions. The Achebe family had five other surviving children, named in a fusion of traditional words relating to their new religion: Frank Okwuofu, John Chukwuemeka Ifeanyichukwu, Zinobia Uzoma, Augustine Ndubisi, and Grace Nwanneka. After the youngest daughter was born, the family moved to Isaiah Achebe's ancestral town of Ogidi, in what is now the state of Anambra state.

Now, who are your parents? Put on their profile, if you can. Who are you? Achebe died at the age of 83, accomplished. You are a non starter, with no certainty that you can be better than either a goat or a pig, how much more a cow.

Salute!

As are you a University teacher?

Very chronicled in lucid language!

Chinua Achebe will never accept or agree to dis!

Ndigbo shld reject it on his behalf!

RIP the great igbo son!

Are you an Achebe? 😳

Let see what the eternally bitter and hate-filled souls from the muddy yeast have to say about diswan

Does the South has a person both living or dead that can match Dangote?

Next time please write in your vernacular. Queen will not be happy in her grave

Stop Kidding yourself!! The man Achebe will definitely reject this nonsense even in his grave!!
He's not an asslicking useless Prof like Soyinka!

-Kiss the truth!

There's nothing to be praised about this.

We don't need a road named after him to adore our own.

He will forever be respected road or no road.
And if he was to be alive, he could have rejected it.

A real man and a genius.

-kiss your lies!

Chinua Achebe was a man who attended the same school with your father but he managed to be one of the greatest in the history of the world while your father drop out and became a vulcanizer there's a bigger difference between him and your father
