The adventures of Souza, The return of Shettima, Call me Michael (opened my mind as a child on the pains kids raised by their mean stepmothers go through) Halima must not die etc He wrote some of the books that spurred my childhood imaginations.
Shettima, Souza, Ralia, wow! Wehad great writers back in the days. Kola Onadipe, Agbo Areo, Kalu Okpi,. All those African night tales and Pacesetters groups. The 90s were awesome.

So when you die your Post Humous b'day is the only thing that will be used to remember you?

Omg!!!! This gave me some nostalgic feeling. I remember these books. I cried reading both, including the return of the boy slave. I didn't even know he was dead as at when I read those books in 1994/1995. Person don old sha.

What's more lovely is that we share the same birthday.
