Published by

After close to  a year of painstaking activities, the Association of Nigerian Authors (ANA) has released the list of successful manuscripts and authors for the second phase of its Nigerian Writers Series (NWS) programme, drawn from submissions received from across Nigeria.

It would be recalled that the call for submission for the second phase of the Series, which was earmarked for the children’s literature genre, was announced on the May 26, 2016, with a deadline set for July 15, 2016. The deadline was later extended to August 5, 2016.

The association announced three series editors—Prof. Uwemedimo Enobong Iwoketok, Omowunmi Segun  and  Ikeogu Oke— after  its National Executive Council meeting in February. A total of 13 submissions were later submitted by interested authors.

Following an exhaustive assessment of each manuscript received, it is the independent opinion of the editors that the following manuscripts merit consideration for publication in the second phase of Nigerian Writers Series.

The Golden Girl of Luba by Kabir Abdullahi; The Loyal Queen by Chinyere Obi-Obasi; Oma, the Drummer Queen by Salamatu Sule.
