Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Re: Bob Dylan will not be attending the Nobel Prize giving ceremony.

Oga Chidi,

I hear you! So, the whole Sweden Academy will relocate to Nigeria because you are the almigthy reincarnation of Rabindranath Tagore, W. B. Yeats, Pablo Neruda, T. S. Eliot, Octavia Paz and Seamus Heaney. Of course, the Academy will relocate. Owerri will be agog that day!

I guess the ceremony will hold at the Owerri Motorpark too to give it the street-feel. 

All hail the Poet of the Garage!

All hail Chidi Anthony Opara!

Mazi Cornelius,
Let me say this and it is not a joke. If my name is mentioned any day as a recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature, the award ceremony will have to be moved to Avuvu in Ikeduru local government area of Imo state Nigeria(my homeland) to enable my folks participate live in the event.

CAO.
