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.

The annual event took place recently, an event put together by the Daily Mirror in celebration of the courage and bravery of everyday people doing extraordinary things in Britain. 

From the tiny donor to the grandmother who stood up to yobs to ensure that her estate remains drugs and crime free. It is also a day to reflect on one's ability to contribute and bring about change in every positive way possible. A day of being humbled whilst meeting with the stars!
