Chimamanda Adichie, Late Stella Adadevoh make CNN's leading women 2014 list

Two phenomenal Nigerian women, Chimamanda Adichie and late Dr Stella Adadevoh have been recognized by international media house, Cable News Network CNN, as some of the world's leading women for the year 2014.

In a list released earlier today by CNN, late Dr Stella Adadevoh was recognized for her significant contribution towards the prevention of the spread of the deadly Ebola virus in Nigeria while Chimamanda was recognized  for her contributions to African Literature.

Other women who made the list included Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Oscar award winning actress Lupita Nyong'o, and IMF Chairman Christine Lagarde

      So how do you know she is a great writer if you have never read her books?
      You sound and write like you have never read any book before.
      Imagine his question - Do people still read novels? This one is the real 'Oxygen and Magnesium'.
