There are debates about who a Nigerian woman is since some people were simply born in Nigeria and lived their entire lives in other countries while others just had Nigerian parents and never lived in Nigeria.
But one cannot really be divorced from their country of birth or their parent’s birth unless they renounce their citizenship, they are Nigerian citizens for all purposes and intents.
It was in Chinua Achebe’s famous book, ‘Things Fall Apart’, he wrote about the importance of the motherland (for this article motherland includes anywhere one can trace their root), “A man belongs to his fatherland when things are good and life is sweet. But when there is sorrow and bitterness he finds refuge in his motherland. Your mother is there to protect you. She is buried there.”
