We are using this time to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a rare gem, Olumide Olulu Holloway, whose birthday is on MAY 15th 2015.
He had also made poetry fun for all STEPPING POETS.

Too many of us have known Olulu too well to be a "poetivist," as he has continued all time to see that poetry gets to its apex in Nigeria and the world at large.
Our own very Olulu has also been said to be the 'AliBaBa' Of Poetry, due to his constant struggle to be a driving force for poetry to be heard, and he has not failed at any time to keep poetry breathing this air called 'life'.
Olulu has also been able to discover close to a hundred poets in Nigeria, through one of his poetry platforms called "WarOfWords" which is a slam poetry platform, that poets competes 'Head To Head' and gets to win a prizes, and automatically gets to perform at their next WordUp event coming up, after WarOfWords.
Some names cannot be left out of the scene, in terms of their much contributions and efforts, to make poetry an art that must be recognized in all parts of the world.

And so many other names that I may not have been able to list.
The truth is that these poets have the art at heart and must be appreciated for their effort and consistency .
As the world celebrates WorldPoetryDay on the 21st of March 2015, Olulu gathered poets together at TerraKulture for WorldUp9, which is another big effort on his side, and deserves to also be supported in all possible way.
Please let's join the train to promote and support poetry, let's make the world see that poetry is an art for the 'GLOBE.'
'WordUp' Word On...
'WarOfWords' must continue to discover more poets
'E.G.C' must survive
'WRR' must live on
'GoPoeThick' must stand tall
'ANA' must continue to grow
'Freedom Spoke Words' must breath life
'30Seconds Poetry' must be heard
'Tony Tokunbo Eteka Fernandez' must keep the pace
'ThePoetry Court' must continue to be strong
'Vivid verses' must grow to its peak
'WORDS and SOUND' must produce rare words...
And 'Ol Fo Naija' must continue to be all for Nigerian poets
For all these to be possible, we need all hands. The truth is that, for now we need everybody; all poets to come on board.
#NoToSegregation
#NoToIsolation
All poets must be listened to.
Don't forget that we don't have a stable audience for now, we are still training their mind for them to be able to receive poetry at all time.
'There are poets, and there are poets'
Let's spread this gospel and shut down all social networks.
