Like I earlier promised, I've got more poetry events you might want to attend.

Now check out Love Is- A non-conventional musical with great promises to fit people in rather than fitting into the norm. Come get a feel of an eclectic mix of music, choreography, visual art, short film and spoken word to tell the story of 3 ladies; a passion-filled poet, a professional dancer and a business woman in search of love.

Love Is is coming up in its full bloom this month parading some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry including,
-Songstress Yinka Davies,
-Sultry voice singer, Timi Dakolo and
-Nigeria’s King of Comedy, Ali Baba,
-Well-known Spoken-Word Poet, Efe Paul-Azino
-Ever thrilling Donna the Poet and
-Dance maestro Ijodee

If you have and love a woman in your life, you should find your way down to Akwa Ibom to join page poets, spoken word poets, comedians, actors and other art lovers as they gather together to lend their voices to silent tears and empower them to speak for their selves on Saturday the 28th of this month.

It is organized to commemorate International Day for the Elimination of violence against Women coming up some three days before the event.
