Deyemi #iwanttoact in your movie! I’ve been laughing all week. Wasn’t I clear enough that this is a stage play? I know say una no rate film actors and think you can do what we do but stage? You go humble! 😂😂😂

Enjoy!

In recovery after a health scare & subsequent medical procedure, & one of my motivations to get better (& soon) is the fact that @akefestival is in 3 weeks. Such a good thing that it's exactly what the doctor ordered!
PS. Find my debut poetry collection on Amazon worldwide.
It's always an honor to be a guest at one of the most important litfests in the world & this'll be my first time at @akefestival as a published author! Looking forward to seeing *everyone* soon!
PS. Find 'Kill The Poet, Save The World!' at all great bookstores nationwide.

If you've never experienced @akefestival, you'd not know how soul-charging it is. My favorite time of the year, it somehow always appears whenever I need rejuvenation the most. The 2026 edition is especially special for me, as it will mark my first time as a published author!
