Celebrated author, Chimamanda Adichie, says she is stuck in the United States awaiting Nigeria’s airspace to reopen for international flights.

The author said planning a burial “in these COVID-scarred times” could be “bewildering” due to the subsisting closure of Nigerian airports to international flights.page, “Because I loved my father so much, so fiercely, so tenderly, I always at the back of my mind feared this day. But he was in good health. I thought we had time. I thought it wasn’t yet time. I have come undone. I have screamed, shouted, rolled on the floor, pounded things. I have shut down parts of myself.

Adichie said she talked almost daily with her late father and often sent him her travel itineraries, adding that his words before any of her stage appearances lifted her soul.
