Chimamanda Adichie celebrates Wole Soyinka for being her guiding light

January 28,2019
Share:

Award-winning novelist, Chimamanda Adichie, has praised Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, for being her guiding light.

In an Instagram post at the weekend, the 41-year-old celebrated Soyinka for his kindness, humour and courage

She wrote: “Your kindness and humour. Your utter coolness.

“The urgent, terse poetry of The Man Died, the exuberance of Ake; your You are, for me, a guiding light:

“Your courage. The ease with which you inhabit your skin, speaking your mind, unburdened by apology.

“Your kindness and humour.

“Your utter coolness.

“The urgent, terse poetry of The Man Died, the exuberance of Ake; your faith in possibility, in adventure, in progress.

“Yes indeed, ‘the mindless ones are neither the total sum nor the true face of humanity.’

Thank you, Prof.”
