Chimamanda the phenomenol woman of the time... Can I love you more! You are amazing in every single way.. Blessings from Kenya!
"When we read we become alive in bodies that are not our own". This. What a great human being.
Chimamanda Ngozi remaim sofar the most powerful intellectual in our time. Her speech is so purposeful, inspirational and empowering. I am very proud to come across with such a peerless lady.
Remarkable Igbo lady, a true asset to Nigeria and to the human race. She has been a real inspiration to lots of people worldwide. God bless you.
I discovered her through my KZread feed. Listening to several of her interviews and speeches is an awesome experience. 🤩❤️

Bless you my beloved. I don't know you in person but God knows you very well . The moment i went through the comments here, God ministered to me in a vision about you i saw a revelation concerned you, your family and things around you . Chid of God ,i saw God's favor, success,joy and breakthrough. Behind that i saw more spiritual attacks from the enemies, working and holding such blessings, causing your set back, but you are lifted above any spiritual tower. So the Lord is instructing you to sow a seed of faith into a motherless babies home,(orphanage) this is going to be a convenant seed between you and God . The Lord asked me to tell you before two days you should try as much as possible to sow a seed into GODSTIME ORPHANAGE MOTHERLESS babies home (orphanage) located in Nigeria to bring spiritual and devine breakthrough in your life and that of your family because there's power in sowing of seed . Contact the orphanage MD(Managing Director) on WhatsApp through this number +2347030374593. if you are done with this,let me know so i give you guidelines on how you should pray . God bless you..

She's without a doubt very intellectual but how she delivers the message.Very hypothetical like every writer.Give me that kid from the street who made it to the top and I will listen.Too proud!
She is BEAUTIFUL
I love this woman ❤❤
SO MOTIVATED IN ALL RAMIFICATIONS.
On the subject of “discomfort”….. One of Americans most favorite lines is, “You hurt my feeling.” Lead down to every word can easily offends people, including no one can use “he or she” until the other party identify themselves what they prefer to be addressed.
Human impact is never about quantity but quality. Powerful!
I keep coming back
I am so excited and blessed to attend AIU, getting my degree will give me the completeness I need to help others in need for healthcare.
You are so beautiful Chima

Knowledge is never complete
I'm unconsciously watching this for the second time till I got towards the end because the message sounded more newer and more relevant/meaningful. And the funny thing about Chimamanda's talks you may end up writing the whole speech if you dare quotes the favorites. 🙂
Why would jamb not use her books in the comprehensive part of English
Subtitles?! Seriously?! Do you not understand the Queen’s English?

Young lady, Chimamanda. Your speeches and appearance are amazingly impressive. However, your names are unnecessarily complex and long. Consider renaming yourself to make it easier for your admirers to say and remember your names. How about `Chima Ngozi?`
