Yes, I'm a student and I always want to be a student. But what I can tell you is that I'm never going to be swayed by criticism. Never. That's never going to happen. I am the daughter of James and Grace Adichie and it's not going to happen. That's it. I have my opinions. And I can have conversations with you about why I have those opinions.
