Good Read: The Girl With The Louding Voice - Abi Dare

  In this remarkable story, Adunni, the main character, depicts ambition fuelled with a burning desire to succeed despite all odds. Tales of this type still abound in Lagos, and they are portrayed in the media daily. Adunni is hailed as the poor girl with a rich mind, "Sherlock Holmes," who never stops asking intelligent questions, a child-bride, and a strong-willed girl who grew up fast due to the circumstance her parents put her through. However, she had the guts to pursue the life she wanted. - An education by any means necessary.  Adunni finally got her groove back after reading such an easy book, I could relate to the characters there. the harsh and despicable reality of Lagos till date. I would recommend this book to my friends and would love to see it turned into a film.

Kwabena Sarkodee Adjepong is london born singer beginning to emerge on the british jazz/soul scene.

 Born to Ghanaian parents in 1990, Kwabena (or 'Kwabs' as most of friends call him) has grown a voice that even he cannot put a label on anymore. It is a mixture of his African roots, the influence R'n'b of the early '00s, Gospel music by the likes of Fred Hammond and Cece WInans, the grooves of Jill Scott and Erykah Badu and weirdly the eastern influence of North Cyprus (but that's another discussion!)
