A picture explains better than words. Well, it's true, not just because I said it was true but
because it is true.
because it is true.
A few years prior, I saw that there was an ever-increasing number of realistic books, explicitly
from African comic authors and illustrators being released. What especially grabbed my eye
was the legitimate composition that streamed next to each other with the drawings/representations.
By real composition, I imply that the voice of the author was African. These were Africans
recounting to their accounts, not simply trusting that a Westerner will recount to their accounts
with the inclination and generalizations that we have generally expected from such essayists.
These were crisp, unique and brilliant. What's more, the pattern has proceeded. An ever-increasing
number of realistic comic books in Nigeria is being composed now than previously.

I am sharing a few of them with you:
Aya de Yopougon
The absolute first realistic novel I experienced was the honor winning Aya de Yopougon using
African Digital Art. Composed by Marguerite Abouet, who is from Cote d'Ivoire and shown by
her French spouse, Clement Oubrerie, Aya won the Best First Album at the Angouleme
International Comics Festival in 2006.

June 12, 1993: Annulment by Abraham Oshoko
Having survived the political uprisings during the '90s in Nigeria, I was enjoyably shocked to go
over this book. It is called June 12, 1993: Annulment and it was composed and outlined by
Abraham Oshoko, a Nigerian. The spread alone catches the pith of the story, which includes
three noteworthy political figures: Late Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (M.K.O) Abiola, Late
General Sani Abacha, and General Ibrahim Babangida.

Life of Pahe
The Life of Pahe is a self-portraying arrangement of funnies dependent on the genuine
encounters of artist/sketch artist Patrick Essono, otherwise called "Pahe." The book spread
above is for the primary book in the arrangement.
