It’s hard to tell when, but it’s true that we have entered something of a golden era in Nigerian poetry, a proliferation of prolific new voices defying the country’s enduring socio-political dysfunction and writing in step with global anxieties. Hosted by Sadiqq Dzukogi, this session explores their place in the tradition and global canon, their evolving poetics, challenges, and personal trajectories. It features, Precious Arinze, Ernest Ogunyemi, Taiye Ojo, Nome Emeka Patrick, and Toby Abiodun.
