I've noticed that our newspapers don't bother with the more prose-like style of describing an interview. This 'question and answer' format is silly.Anonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-86421257649890868352010-01-11T10:45:41.014+01:002010-01-11T10:45:41.014+01:00It's really sad that the reading experience of...It's really sad that the reading experience of many Nigerians is limited to Christian literature, motivational books and pulp fiction.I'm a Christian and I attend a moderate Pentecostal church but I think many of these books actually kill any curiosity one might have about the world and result in an extremely narrow outlook on life. In my opinion, it has played a major role in the anti-intellectualism that is so rife in Nigerian society today.Bose[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-60010047572296790102010-01-10T15:14:49.220+01:002010-01-10T15:14:49.220+01:00A very informative and inspiring interview.

I will say however that I agree with Bibi only to the extent that I think that the religious literature in Nigeria today is not beneficial. The right type of religious literature is yet to be written. Anyway, that is an argument for another day.<br /><br />Wonderful interview and best wishes to Cassava Republic.Doyin[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-91947915029970642722010-01-09T22:12:38.308+01:002010-01-09T22:12:38.308+01:00Bibi is brilliant and she brims with ideas in the ...Bibi is brilliant and she brims with ideas in the interview. But the Guardian should hang its head in shame. Did an editor read this interview? It is rife with grammatical errors and it just seems to me that the newspaper was too lazy to do basic research on names. They mangle names and sentences at every opportunity. And the title of the interview does a great injustice to the sum total of the ideas expressed. Disgraceful and unacceptable, is all I can say. <br /><br />- IkhideIkhide[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-30426838216423791872010-01-09T19:49:21.984+01:002010-01-09T19:49:21.984+01:00Bold and analytical and not afraid to talk to the ...Bold and analytical and not afraid to talk to the problems.

Once upon a time, lets go back to basics. <br />BTW: I so love the snipe taken at whastitsname, silly Dora Akinyili.
