I had a blast talking to the fellas who are working tirelessly to bring this Nigerian classic to life as an animated movie. The audience engagement was also, ahem, quite animated!

Words of wisdom from the renowned writer, publisher, festival organiser, and founding Trustee of ACAIN Lọlá Shónẹ́yìn

Join her for @kabafest taking place in Kaduna from May 1st to May 4th, 2024.

Our very own Baba Aminu will be a guest at the festival. You don’t want to miss it!

As a big fan of Hauwa Shafii Nuhu's (Hauwa Shaffii Nuhu) work, I'm excited to talk to her about almost everything to do with her stunning, critically-lauded documentary. If I wasn't hosting this chat, it'd def top my 'can't miss' list. This year's KABAFEST is going to be mad awesome!

Join us at Ouida Lagos at 11am on Saturday. We’ll watch a short documentary about 3 inspiring parents caring for children with special needs, then listen to Yinka Chukwuemeka Ogunnubi and Simone's Oasis and have a discussion. Register here: forms.gle/iWWDjiSQ98Vh7Y…

If I have to hear 'the North is historically disadvantaged when it comes to literacy' from the latest pseudo-intellectual sack-of-shit peddling 'research' or 'data', I'll just curl up in a ball and die. The stench of all kinds of bigotry, plus a waft of stupidity covers it all.

In some days, at KABAFEST this year, I'll be hosting a presentation of an incredible upcoming animated movie based on a true classic work of Nigerian literature. Believe me, this brilliant film is going to be a game-changer. Did I hear anyone say 'Oscar'? Good.

One of my fave writers has a new book dropping any moment from now. I'm excited!

The man in the left is a consummate professional, a super-talented thespian, a focused businessman, and an incredible friend. It's also his birthday today. Have a happy one, brother!
It's DeyemiTheActor's day today...

I love the cover. Can't wait!

Be good. But don't waste time trying to prove it.

We give a dog a bad name so it can be hung. But first, let's poke it to a desired level of rabidity, shan't we?

That #Shogun episode 9 though. Damn. Edge-of-your-seat drama at its best!

Coming to you this May 🎉

One learns a ton on Nigerian social media. Like Fanta being the preferred drink of water spirits. Sigh.

Non-Nigerians won't know how insanely funny and ironic it is that the dog in the Fallout TV show is called 'CX-404'. 🤣 Man, 404!!! nearly fell down laughing when I first saw it.
BTW I'm weirdly enough enjoying the series so far.

So excited to be a guest at this year's KABAFEST. If you've been living under a rock all these years, it's put together painstakingly by the awesome Lọlá Shónẹ́yìn & her incredible Book Buzz Foundation team for the Kaduna State Government. It's un-missable! See you there!

I want to report AEDC o'. They brought light since 8am and it has not blinked since. It's like they're trying to stylishly push us to Band A o'. 😞
