This inchoate urge was drummed in this collection, Market Parliament and Other Poems, in which his passion and unalloyed adoration is given to the African Culture. His admiration for Africanism and the recent upsurge all over the African continent and beyond of democratic forces also pervades through his poetry.
Onarinde’s academic experience has spurred him to writing series of literary works and papers, which he has been privileged to present at both national and international poetry festivals. Some of his poems have appeared in Mandela: The Man His Life Its Meaning Our Words, World Healing World Peace Poetry anthology, Poems for the Hazara, Lines in Gerardo Sangiorgio’s Memory, and Literatura Menas (43). Fiyinfoluwa is currently a Fulbright fellow at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, USA.view less
