Finally this is someone who is giving us a better image out there apart of being in the movie industry and all the rest.

Thank God for her.
ME
Congrats but really many Nigerians become fellows everyday. I for one I am a fellow at a University in the United Kingdom and we do not get it announced and in my own case we are only 3 selected from Africa out of 100 applications, so me to I try na, wetin you think...lol
I am inlove with everything about this lady,,,her hair expecially is making a statement..."you can groom your natural hair and still be beautiful"
Well, Ifeoma, you no write book nah.lol but congrats to you and Adichie.
Congrats Chimamanda! Also love your hair, wish this style is considered a fashionable option amongst many, it'll let our hairlines breathe at least.
It's good to know that this amazon is making herself a success without the bribery and other things that are characteristic of the typical Nigerian. Congrats Chimamanda. I'm proud of you!

Well done Chimamanda!
Well done Chimamanda!
Now!!!! this is what i call "beauty and brain"...... Linda!,are you not considering her as our beauty of the day? i think she even worth more than that, stop featuring tura soap bleached whores as beauty of the day, they are not good inspirations.
I agree, make her beauty of the day please! beauty and brains. and what i love about her is that she is super natural, unlike most of the people you've been featuring. see her pretty chocolate skin and LOVE IT, not look over it.
thanks.
congrats Chimamanda girl, you deserve it!
Linda, How dey marry this babe? me i wan apply o
I agree with you o Ifeoma, But i guess she's become a celebrity so shes more known. Congrats to you, her and all others, May you also be recognised soonest just like miss Adiche
@ Anon 4:09pm, she is already married o!
What a glorious mane of hair!! Thick, shiny, soft, and healthy. It gives me hope for my own natural hair journey. This is the complete package: brains and beauty. Yes, Linda you must change your feature to "brains and beauty of the day" and not just "beauty of the day". And Ifeoma, congrats to you too and other silent achievers!!!
lots of people have fellowships too...
nothing new here Ms L.
it is not about just being a fellow. its about being a Harvard fellow. one of the top 3 schools in the world. thats the difference. A+ and B+ are not the samething
@Ifeoma.. You seem to be omitting something - HARVARD UNIVERSITY!
