Award winning Author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie had an interview with former Democratic presidential candidate and US first lady, Hilary Clinton at a PEN World Voices Festival lecture at the Cooper Union in Manhattan on Sunday night.
Adichie, during the chat asked former US Sectary of States, Why, with all of her career accomplishments, did her Twitter bio primarily identify her first as a “Wife”?
Well, Nigerians have taken to social media to throw jabs at her for the question, saying Mrs Clinton has the right to identify herself however she likes on her own Twitter bio.
See reactions here:
Because she CHOSE to. Women nowadays want to dictate the lives of other women. Always making ppl feel less because of their choices. twitter.com/Jezebel/status…
Obama's bio also starts with "Dad, husband" before anything. same with many others. But our dear Chimamanda was offended because a woman values her family that much. Call it what you want, I call it hidden bitterness.
Here are the ones that share are sentiments
Lets come back home – Do you think Chimamanda’s question was wrong or appropriate???
