There are many words that can be used to describe Onome Ovwori, or Mr. O as he prefers to be called but one word that will definitely come up several times is the word - gifted. Mr. O is a gifted artist based in the United States who generally performs within the genre of Afro Jazz. He is known for the song Iyawo mi and Naija go better. Currently, he has another song, Alright, which I believe will be a major Nigerian wedding song this summer. Take a read and enjoy a brief moment with Mr. O as he shares about his song and his inspiration.

I had the opportunity to read, ‘happiness is a four letter word’, and it was love. I was so enamoured by the characters in this book that when it was time to choose another book to write a review on, I just had to choose that book. Hopefully, you all will get a chance to read that review in the near future.

This book captured the essence of friendship in a thriving South Africa. Friendship where every single person is extremely different from the other but are held by a thread of love. This friendship is played against the backdrop of family, career, relationship and emotional turmoil. Getting the opportunity to interview this author was a great privilege. Enjoy the interview, pick up your copy of the book via Amazon and of course, look out for my review.
