Excited to share that my poem “Omi O L’ota” has won the poetry category of the 2024 Augur’s Annual Micro-Fiction Contest! Many thanks to @augursociety for this wonderful recognition.

Couldn’t fault the effort of the Arsenal players today. Needed a bit of luck and sadly that didn’t happen. This should be the benchmark for the remainder of the season.

Thanks to all of those rejections

According to independent laboratory tests, Nigeria’s Fanta contains EU banned synthetic dyes (Carmoisine E122 or Allura Red E129). They were found in Fanta Strawberry, Fanta Orange variants, and other local soft drinks.

Perhaps I'm weak, but this is why I often struggle to write anything here. How do "strong Christian leaders" watch this and still befriend political leaders? If this were a member of my congregation, would I even still sleep? How do leaders of Christian bodies smile and continue their ministries of enjoyment after observing things like this? When exactly will it get very personal for us as the body of Christ?

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page

The hardest part of wisdom is learning to stay silent when the ego wants to speak.

Recommendation isn’t a favour. Someone just risked their integrity for you. Pay back with results. DELIVER!

The Roaring Lion Newcastle presents dRAFTed - a quarterly writers' fund supporting Nigerian writers who need time, space and support to focus on their work. ₦100,000 is awarded each quarter to selected writers across fiction, non-fiction, poetry and spoken word.

@Nedumcity_ MLK was a pastor. Oscar Romero was an Archbishop. Desmond Tutu was a Bishop. Nigerian “men of God” are too performative. In time of grave injustice, hiding behind the pulpit is cowardice.

A spiritual leader cannot do his spiritual work again because of Ayo, Nigerian Atheists and Christianophobs. Instead of holding Tinubu’s scrotum, you’re here doing character assassination against a man that owes you nothing except prayer. Keep fighting the wrong battle, inugo.

The power you people claim to have witnessed, the depth you people claim have reached, call your daddy GOs and march. Express that power in your march. MLK was a pastor too and he wasn’t a coward behind the pulpit.
