It is an incontrovertible fact that Literary works go hand-in-gloves with creativity.In the two Novels written by Chinua Achebe, one has been able to see clearly how Achebe has used his imaginative sense to communicate his messages to the readers effectively, without losing sight of aethetics.He showed in the two Novels, Things Fall Apart and Anthills of the Savannah that Literary works can be a tool for the achievement of social goals, using the discoursal point of view.Things Fall Apart is an exemplification of the fact that African people have been civilised in their own way before white people came to Africa, this Achebe showed in the fictional society of the Umuofia being an organised society, using Okonkwo the protagonist as the Custodian of the Culture and traditions of the people of Umuofia.In Anthills of the Savannah, Achebe's intention is to lampoon the autocratic rule of African leaders.He used His Excellency the President of the fictional society of Kangan as a reflection of autocratic ruler.The persecution of the oppositions in Anthills by His Excellency, reflects the persecution of oppositions by African rulers.Achebe has shown in Anthills that African rulers are unjust.
