    Author

    Oribi Charles

    Ocharlyie was born in the early ’80s where nursery rhymes and folk tales were the evening’s entertainment. Though trained in the sciences with a passion for information technology, his love for the arts followed him everywhere like a shadow. He has been writing as early as he could remember, from diaries to drama scripts, magazine articles, and short stories. Rhymes from the Niger is his first published work and contribution to the nation that made him black and proud. Currently working on two other book projects, he resides in Lagos with his wife and loves to cook and watch movies when he’s not pitching a client.
