Curated this list for @booko_clock in 2020. I am now realising how homogenous and limited it is. Very few women are represented here and there are no authors from the North, even though I acknowledge that Ekwensi’s stories can pass as Northern. But still, quite limited. 😬

African literature is as important as Western Literature. There shouldn’t even be a hierarchy of importance.

the igbos have planted themselves everywhere in Lagos: they are in our markets, our sea ports, lecturers in university, driving buses, our banks? see how stupid that sounds? this extreme hate for random civilians is counter productive and as an igbo person you should know better.

The Rwanda genocide didn’t begin with machetes — it began with dangerous stereotypes that dehumanised an entire group. Nigeria must take note. Yes, there are hundreds of violent criminals who happen to be Fulani, just as there are Muslim extremists. But they represent a tiny

Some are being triggered by #TheHerd on @NetflixNaija for showing our current reality? The same terrorist attacks I witnessed first hand on my way to Gembu, Taraba during NYSC? Abeg if you’re part of the few that have sense pls help me RT this poster for everyone to see it! 👀

Please keep tweeting about it until @netflix sees it! It’s going to happen. It’s a film that deserves to be seen all over the world!

In Nigeria, over 1,880 schoolchildren have been abducted over the past decade, with girls as primary targets. @A_Salkida takes us through the timeline of these attacks, the human cost, and how the nation has failed to learn from these tragedies. Read: https://t.co/iEJulpkAcP

I'm immensely grateful to everyone who deemed me worthy of this award. Everyone who read "From Across Time" and said, yes, I'll vote for that. Thank you. It means a lot. And thank you to @clarkesworld for publishing this story.

Illustration Course Curriculum Reveal I just finished designing a full, beginner-friendly Illustration Course Outline, and I’m really excited about how it's shaping up. The goal is simple: Teach people how to illustrate, from fundamentals to full character/product illustrations

I’m speaking! Join us on Saturday.❤️

I hate that Nigeria has become what we now “pray for.”

This is tribalism A lot of these people are also just hustling here. Yes horrible things are happening and it’s people that look like them that are doing it but this tweet is also in bad taste I understand what you’re trying to do but this framing is dangerous and tribalistic
