IBADAN BOOK CLUB TO BESTOW HONORS UPON EXEMPLARY MEMBERS

In a grand celebration of literary achievement, the Ibadan Book Club announces its intention to award and honor outstanding members and organizations for their unwavering support and significant contributions towards fostering a thriving reading and writing culture in Oyo State.

The Founder of the Club, Wole Adedoyin, conveyed this exciting development in a statement released in Ibadan on Tuesday.

The primary objective of these prestigious awards is to motivate Ibadan Book Club members while expressing gratitude to other influential stakeholders in the literary community. The deserving recipients will be formally acknowledged during the much-anticipated 2023 edition of the Ibadan Book Honor.

Since the inception of this literary year, Ibadan Book Club has hosted over fifty writers and guest lecturers, including accomplished artists. Additionally, they have conducted interviews with over a hundred writers, curated a poetry anthology currently undergoing editing, and organized the successful Ibadan Creative Writing Workshop.

For a comprehensive look at the club's past activities, interested individuals are encouraged to visit the official blog: https://ibadanbookclubonline..com. Video recordings of their engaging readings can also be found by searching "Ibadan Book Club" on YouTube.

Established in 2011 as an initiative of the Nigerian Young Writers Society, the Ibadan Book Club has played a pivotal role in fostering a robust reading culture in Oyo State. The club comprises individuals who convene regularly to discuss literature, exchange books, and support one another in developing a critical approach to reading.

As part of its impactful initiatives, the Ibadan Book Club has published several notable works, including the Olubadan Centennial Anthology—a collection of essays, articles, poems, and artworks in honor of Oba (Dr.) Samuel Odulana, Odugade 1. Other publications include "Voices from Oja Oba Market" and "Finally, Senator Abiola Ajimobi: Memories, Dreams, Reflections of a Mind Always in Motion."

The Ibadan Book Club continues to stand as a beacon of literary excellence, nurturing a community of passionate readers and writers. The upcoming Ibadan Book Honor promises to be a memorable occasion, recognizing those who have made exceptional contributions to the flourishing literary landscape of Oyo State.
