    I have learnt a lot from his writing. " A man who makes trouble for others is also making it for himself ". This really means humanity must be preserved ; humanity must be respected. If one does bad things to other people , he will suffer as a result victimising others.

    "We shoudnt carry the baggage of race into the 21st century" Look where we r now.Racism has never bn more alive @ any time in history than it is now I fear.Chinua Achebe will live on through the magnificence of his art! Rest on Sire

    what a shame! i just came across this video and i cannot help but noticed it was since 2013 and the no of subscribers, comments and Africans as a whole who have checked it out is so disappointing, this is the reason we do not progress, we care more about thing and places that is non of our business than we do our people, country and continent as a whole.

      You hit the nail on the head! It’s indeed shameful! If not everyone should know this literary giant.

    His book: "Hopes and Impediments" is an important read. I first read it at the age of 17/18 and it shaped how I read literature as an African in this world.
