I have a new essay out today. In The Very Nigerian Playbook of Campus Politics, I step away from the personal to investigate the nature of campus politics and what it informs us about Nigeria's broader political landscape. Do read; this one stretched me. https://t.co/yXHytQ7lJG

My latest piece in The Continent looks at the legacy of Fela Kuti whose music continues to remain relevant nearly thirty years after his death.

@youruncleonx Happy birthday!

The last section of this novel broke my heart. Also, Garricks may be a technically challenged writer, but he does know how to cut to the heart of a story. And boy does he know how to do love!

[Azubuike Obi @SamExistingg]

This has an important story at heart but it is a story whose plot is so engineered, its themes so overtly stated, its characters so loquacious, the imposition is unmistakable. And it doesn’t help that a novel with five distinct narrators is written entirely in the first person.

@BeesPoems On Artificial Intelligence? Yes, I am.

"This question had lasted as long as eternity itself did: did the pain of others—those not in sight, those out of mind, those without names and faces, or at least without proximate souls that stood in touching distance—even matter?"

I hope Faraaz Mahomed is having a great week wherever he is, and that he feels proud when he thinks of the work he did on Mother/Land.

[Big Sam @sjikeme]

This is an important point in this discourse. @SamExistingg. Good job!

[Azubuike Obi @SamExistingg]

@pages_and Multiple first person narratives elevates it in what way?

[Azubuike Obi @SamExistingg]

@husseinnoctober Happy birthday, Hussein. I hope lasting joy finds you in this new age.

[Abubakar Adam Ibrahim @Abbakar_himself]

[Azubuike Obi @SamExistingg]

@pages_and Yeah. That works.
