His first major poetry collection, The Big Man and Other Poems, will be published by Words Rhymes & Rhythm Publishers in the first quarter of 2018.

JOSEPH OMOTAYO is a Nigerian editor, book critic, multi-media content manager, and professional ghostwriter. He holds a B.A in Literature in English. He loves contemporary African Literature and has been writing book reviews for almost a decade.

Omotayo presently writes for OlisaTV and Words Rhymes & Rhythm Publisher’s author-resource platform Authorpedia. He is also a web content manager for Afridiaspora.com, a webzine for Africans in the diaspora, featuring content on African Literature, development, entrepreneurship and arts.

They will speak on the festival theme – Write to Right; Right to Write.
