hehehehe..............Controversial on-air personality, Daddy Freeze has criticized award-winning author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, for saying she was “upset” that Hillary Clinton’s Twitter bio starts with “wife”.
Daddy Freeze said he is torn between anger and respect as he was once a huge fan of Adichie’s literary work.
“Dear Chimamanda, I used to be a huge fan until I read your interview with Hillary Clinton.
“Now I’m somewhere in the vesica pisces, torn between the enormous respect I had for the quality of your work and anger for what you are beginning to brandish.
“Let me set the record straight, I am not a fan of Hillary Clinton, so I’m not jumping in as her guardian angel. As a matter of fact, I completely disagree with most of the decisions she took while in office.
“Even Obama refers to himself as a dad first, husband second, so what’s your point exactly? Why can’t Hillary be addressed as wife first, if she so chooses?
“Could your utterances be stemming from inadequacies you need to attend to? You might consider investigating this.
“Now, let me warn you, there are no dividing forces greater than color, race, gender and tribe. These factors continue to ensure humanity remains segregated. This table you are shaking has vast consequences even you didn’t bargain for.
“In the same vein, I follow you simple because of your message, NOT BECAUSE OF YOUR GENDER OR COLOR OR TRIBE. So kindly keep the focus on the message, which in my opinion is excellent.
“Don’t mar it by demarcating yourself into a ‘gender’, unless of course you are employing this as a marketing tool, which, please be warned, has its own repercussions!”
Adichie sparked controversy after making the statement at the PEN World Voices Festival on Sunday.
