Anti-Tinubu letter: NADECO tells Biden to ignore Chimamanda Adichie

Anti-Tinubu letter: NADECO tells Biden to ignore Chimamanda Adichie

 The Coordinator, National Democratic Coalition Renewal
Group, Prof. Atilade Adeeyo, on Tuesday, condemned the letter written to United
States President, Joe Biden, by Nigerian writer, Chimamanda Adichie, over the
February 25 presidential election won by the All Progressives Congress
candidate, Bola Tinubu.

 

Adichie had in the letter faulted the US for congratulating
Tinubu, who she alleged emerged through unlawful process, on the grounds that
the election was allegedly fraught with irregularities and violence and as well
compromised by the electoral umpire.

 

But NADECO Renewal, which said Adichie’s outburst betrayed
her ethnic bias in a matter of national interest, urged the American president
to ignore the letter in its entirety, describing its content as “childish,
seditious and illogical.”

 

In a statement titled, “Ignore Adichie’s childish,
seditious, illogical ranting, NADECO Renewal tells Biden,” made available in
Ado Ekiti, Adeeyo described Adichie’s message as “illogical reasoning regarding
the ensuing political development in Nigeria and ignorance of the electoral
umpire’s operations.”

 

The group said, “With that ill-conceived letter of hers to
US President Biden, she has exposed her true colour – that of an
ethnically-biased Nigerian hiding under the guise of a writer to pretentiously
preach patriotism, but who is capable of unreasonably and ignorantly  approaching issues of national interest from
a myopic prism of ethnicity.

 

“We can only advise the ever-busy President of the US to
ignore Adichie and her ethnically-influenced and biased letter because it is
written out of a shallow understanding of the electoral laws that guide the
electoral process.

 

“We like to engage Adichie on a few of some of her gaffe.
This lady of letters, so to say, goofed pathetically when she described the
February 25 presidential poll as illegitimate because it is only a competent
court of law that has the legal grounds to decide and pronounce the legitimacy
or otherwise of the poll.”
