writer and performance poet

I will one day sell out the 02 Arena as a performance poet.

If I had the power to force every Nigerian writer to do something, it’ll be these:

Read widely, deeply, thoughtfully.

Learn to write essays on ideas.

Understand that this industry is yours and the only thing you have. Raise and protect its quality and integrity.
