Chimamanda disowns pro-Biafra articles

Literary icon, Chimamanda Adichie, has disavowed some write-ups attributed to her in which she purportedly supported the current Biafran agitation.



Adichie, who is the author of the bestseller, ‘Half of a Yellow Sun’, said this in a Facebook post on Monday.

The headline of one of such false write-ups read, ‘Enough of this Political Correctness, I am a Biafran and Nothing Else- Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’

Adichie, who posted a picture of one of such false write-ups, said she never made any statement on Biafra.

She said, “This headline below, and other similar headlines, which appeared on some websites: are false. They are completely invented; along with some accompanying quotes which have been attributed to me. I did not say or write those words.”
