The 2-day event organized by the Custodians of Africa literature COAL whose main aim is promoting literature was mind blowing.
Day1 had our guests perform and it was divine! The poem "Ablution" stirred the atmosphere. Let me not forget to mention that ogene is spiritual lol. When the music goes up you can't help but be moved.
Judith Johnson, Delve, Su'eddie, Ehizogie, Sadiq, Anchorman, Rudolph, Celine and the COAL ambassadors graced the stage and it was awesome.
Mfon's cover version of Beyonce's "I was here" got us on our toes too as she took the audience to another level.
Day2 we hiked, yes we climbed Shere hills and it was both scary and interesting. An experience I will never forget. I mean if you survive climbing Shere Hills then you can survive anything life throws at you.
After we descended the hill, we settled down to eat chicken and play common sense and then we had our open mic.
Mala opened the floor with beautiful melodies from his harmonica and then did a spoken word piece Amu-Nnadi calls "speaking in tongues".
The high priest himself read out one of the poems from the holy book. Oh yes, Field of Echoes is a holy book.
It began well and it ended well but not entirely cause it still echoes within.
Here are highlights of the event in photos.
