Have you read ''The Smugglers'' by Kalu Okpi? Thats the first Nigerian crime novel i've ever read. looking for it to read again. last time i did i was 12 or 13

Zilas:
The concubine is another interesting novel. We have Ihuoma and Ekwueme as main characters including Ahurole. Can't remember the author.

peppyluv02:
I read all but will do so again just like I recently did with Things Fall Apart and The bottled Leopard. Found out I have a different view ,interpretation and understanding unlike when I read them as a child.

SirDavico:
I've only read two of those books on the list.
> Dizzy Angel by Grace Osifo is also a great book.
And so are
>Pot of life, Return of Aimiuwu and Mystries of pot of life by H. J. Akenzua.
And lots more.

Can anyone give me a link to download Mystries of pot of Life?[/b]

Amazing novel! I read it when I was in primary school

Honestly, while reading these posts gives a sense of euphoria when i consider that i read five out of those op posted, and a whole lot of others by different commentators, i feel sad at the same time that reading culture has all but died in Nigeria. Can we get todays children away from the tv with all its forms of entertainment, can we get them away from the game consoles, internet, social media etc

WEEP NOT CHILD? i must shed my tears for THE AFRICAN CHILD, who cares less whether EZE GOES TO SCHOOL or not. destined to be THE BOY SLAVE when the ADVENTURES OF SOUZA no longer appeals to him. IFEANYI AND OBI are no more his playmates so he is NO LONGER AT EASE. Thinks more of THE CONCUBINE so early in life while others are seeking THE PASSPORT OF MALLAM ILIYA. He is like a BOTTLED LEOPARD when there are ANTHILLS IN THE SAVANNAH to explore. CRY THE BELOVED COUNTRY Nigeria for THE RETURN OF SHETTIMAH is no more feasible. No more hope of being A MAN OF THE PEOPLE, as the centre can no more hold for THINGS FALL APART is now our case...
