Chinua Achebe remains one of my favorite writers of all time , he made me fall in love with Modern African literature , with all of his works from Arrow of God , Things fall apart , No longer at ease ,just name it ... for those who despise the Igbo people , at any slight chance ,I recommend Achebe's works , it would give you an insight , into the rich Igbo culture. make you appreciate it more , even if you're not Igbo .... He's one of the few writers who talks about pre colonial era in his works , disapproving those sentiments cooked up by Trevor roper and his followers that Africa has no history before the colonial era ....he highlights tge strength , organization pride and religious beliefs ,of Africans before the colonial masters came ...and the confusion they brought in the name of civilization... Achebe will forever remain alive in the world of literature !!! 104 Likes 3 Shares |

Typical ibo man. He died developing other people’s land . This is a man considered one of the best ever brain in African literature, yet he took the rich brain to develop and help Americans. Even in his old age he should have returned to his home state of Anambra . Imagine having a brain like this in an eastern university but he choose to work for the white man until his death . This is a man that graduated from University of Ibadan but contributed nothing even in his later years to university of Ibadan, he forgot home completely. He went from one oyinbo university to another and died in oyinbo university. A white man will work the world over but he will retire home in other to serve his people with the remaining part of his years. 10 Likes |
