The award winning writer and renowned feminist doesn't want us to call her by her husband's name
Award winning writer of 'Half Of A Yellow Sun', Chimamanda Adichie, recently warned a journalist not to address her as 'Mrs', but 'Miss'. Reading the interview which she had with Journalist of The Sun News, paper she categorically emphasized the importance of calling addressing her with the said title.
After a mild argument with the journalist on what our culture was, victory was finally conceded to her. Considering that she is married and her name is supposed to be 'Mrs Chimamanda Esega', and we all know this sounds quite out of the ordinary.
Isn't she taking her feminist policy a bit too far?
