Ngugi deserves the Nobel Prize in Literature ! And by the way, only one black African got it this far (Wole Soyinka, Nigeria).

Ngugi is my favorite writer. I am a professor of Comparative Literature, and I will be writing a book on him.

Why is it that the Nobel Prize Committee has not awarded Ngugi or Achebe this prize for literature? In the opinions of many, these two are literary giants who should have gotten the prize yesterday.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. We still need to decolonise our minds. This is an important step.
