Our Adesina Family
When I heard that the third series of Channel 4’s award winning documentary The Family would be featuring a Nigerian family, my reaction was at once one of excitement and trepidation.
Thousands of mourners have paid their last respects to renowned Nigerian author Chinua Achebe in his home town in Anambra state.
A host of dignitaries attended the funeral including Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan.
The BBC's Will Ross, who was at the funeral, said that Mr Achebe was given a colourful, grand send off in his home town of Ogidi.
