Nigerian author Chinua Achebe has won the Man Booker International Prize

This year must be year of Nigeria. Two international literary prizes, elections- hey I did not say they were free and fair, and the satellite launch. I think we deserve to celebrate, if not to melt away the sadness transpiring in other countries including Nigeria's Delta Region. Doesn't it seem like another totally different country?

Anyway, forget the Delta for now. Congratulations to Chinua Achebe. To Achebe I say, congratulations, you make us proud!!!!!!
