We’re making some important and positive changes with the long term in mind. There’s plenty of work ahead, but exciting progress is underway. More updates coming soon.
Go listen to ALILI AMAKA an Ogbanje story today!
Weekend reminder! There's a free audiobook on our YouTube channel from one of the books I've written in the Ogbanje series.
The story was inspired by real events in my family. If you haven't listened to it yet, check it out, and if you enjoy it, feel free to leave a comment!
More to come in 2027!

If you are familiar with the ancient Igbo Uli art, here is the raw material.

The depth of craftsmanship, skill, and artistic nuance required to create a mask like this, only for such mastery to be overlooked and dismissed through the lens of demonization.

Going through my personal library and realized I have two copies of this book. A reminder that the author has done a fantastic job of dispelling popular imperialist myths surrounding Ekwensu while presenting tangible facts to challenge these misconceptions.
EKWENSU IN THE IGBO IMAGINATION: A Heroic Deity or Christian Devil by Damian U. Opata was another book I read over the weekend and concluded during my reflective time this morning. The author does a fantastic job of addressing and dispelling Ekwensu’s misrepresentation as the Christian Devil, exploring everything from communities traumatized into changing names and cultural practices associated with Ekwensu to challenging claims made by earlier academics. A great and important book, kudos to the author!
I’ve now added it, with great pleasure, to my list of “Must-Read Non-Fiction Books on Odinani, Igbo Spirituality, and Igbo History” sloaneangelou.blog/journal/m…
