Okay, i was still telling people that omotola has a very good website and whatnot. Just for me to go and it and see that it's down. That's minor. My main question is, why is she selling the domain name for $325,000.00. Na yam? IS her domain name that special? Or has it being hacked? Web guru's talk please. I mean www.omotola.com |

Kowry Kreations Media
…shell of creativity Press Release
Poetry Potter, a presentation by Kowry Kreations Media has now recorded five editions since the launch of this programme in January, this year. Hence, we have kept faith with our mission statement “towards the revitalization and sustainability of African arts, culture and value systems through oral, recitation and performance poetry, folktales and songs, which were the nucleus of education and intellectual discussion in the ancient period of Africa.
Since the principal aim of Kowry Kreations Media, as a literary organization, is to create a platform where creativity might be exhibited and enhanced, we thought it befitting to include within the vessel of our programme, Poetry Potter, two other interesting segments. These are: African Voices in the Diaspora and a Yearly Publication of an anthology of poems, short dramas and songs presented since the inception of the programme and to offer an audio CD. The first publication of the anthology and the CD respectively will be launched at the 12th edition of Poetry Potter, which is billed for January, 2007. Therefore, African Voices in Diaspora is aimed at giving our in-house audience the opportunity to listen and appreciate the creative ingenuity of African writers in other parts of the world. And also give African writers, in the Diaspora, the opportunity to participate in the programme at every edition. This will take effect from this month. Interested writers should send his/her work(s) to kowrykreationsmedia@yahoo.com with ten lines of bio-data.
As it is in our tradition to have a literary icon who chairs the event, as the Guest Artiste at every edition, Akeem Lasisi, the winner of the ANA-Cadbury Poetry Award 2005 and the Art editor of The Punch (newspaper) is our Guest Artiste of the month. The creator of Minus Poetry, Wale Ajakaye, will be at the event, not to recite minus poetry but to sing Ijala, the song of the hunters. Segun Tobi whose stage name is Are, also promises to thrill the audience with his unique African rhythm.
We must apologise that Poetry Potter could not be hold last month, June 2006, for logistical reasons. You can only imagine how disappointed we, the organizer of the programme, were.
We request you join us for the July edition, the sixth edition, which will be held on 29th July, 2006, at the National Library Hall, opposite the Casino Cinema, Alagomeji, Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria. The programme will start by 4 p.m., so please by prompt, no African time. Endeavour to come in your native attire. Admission is free!

The Trial Of Poets
Case number one hundred and eight
Allegation stated: the trial of poets
Presume all present in this court?
Poets are guilty of nonchalant
Towards life when they chant
And humans elevated above height
Poets are murderer of words
In pursuant of rhymes and rhythms
All in the name of poetic licenses!
My Lord, I am the spokesman for poets
We gathered today to defend our faith,
With elaborate explanations "We're not guilty"
Poets are romantic
Poets are passionate
Poets are affectionate
They see things in different ways
They view life in complex manners
And break it down to simplest views
Passions flow out of poets
Emotions gush out of poets
Affections rush out of poets
Though lines in systematic ways,
Form stanzas in logical manners
Accomplished with unique titles.
Poets are Marvelous
Poets are Mysterious
Poets are Contentious
At times they seem blind
But see clearer than eagles
In search for daily bread.
At times they seem dumb
But are paretic through powerful media;
Pen on paper to speak their mind.
At times they seem deaf
But clearer than the broken walls,
And think wisely before they talk.
At times they seem naked
But clothed like chameleon,
Only caring less of that you cherish.
Going up and down of the beach
Is search of rhymes and rhythms,
The wildest in the network of poets.
The heaven and earth
The sum, the moon and the stars
Are eternal poets.
The South and the West
The North and the East,
Sing rhythmical songs.
Poets are Marvelous
Poets are Mysterious
Poets are Contentious
This court has jurisdiction over poets
And as the spokesman of the poets,
Hence my Lord, my case I rest.
I, the judges of this court
Am a prototype of a poet,
For I preside over this court.
Lawyers and court clerks are poets,
Plaintiffs and defendants are poets,
They arrange their statements systematically before the court;
With effective defense of poets
Thus panel of judges of this law court
Discharge and acquit poets!
