President Barack Obama of the US last night lauded the late
Nigerian novelist, Chinua Achebe, as a “revolutionary author, educator,
and cultural ambassador.”
Mr. Obama’s words of praise for Mr. Achebe, the author of the classic Things Fall Apart and four other widely read novels, were contained in a condolence message he sent to the organizers of an event held in Washington, DC on Sunday, June 2, 2013 to celebrate the life of the late author. The celebration was held at the Andrew Mellon Auditorium, 1301 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC.http://saharareporters.com/photo-gallery/photonews-america-celebrates-chinua-achebe
