The second episode of our photo album is here…after four months of hibernation…in case you haven’t noticed we are in the Rainy Season, and our cameras don’t normally work in the rainy season (Freaks of Technology, tell me about it). But after much praying and fasting (yes we just ended the Ramadan Season), Our Cameras were granted a few moments of sight, to capture and to captivate those who will go through these our Memories in Print.
Yes it has been an event filled week (26th July to 2nd August 2014)…I just learnt today that Lyriversity has reached the Deciduous Plains of New-Zealand (the city of 100 volcanoes), in fact it has even navigated the River Ganges, explored the Himalayas (I hope) and came crushing, no descending smoothly into the Lateritic Soils of Eastern Nigeria.
Whether you move by car, or by plane, or by bike or bicycle, or by Leg-geedis benz still, you are welcome to join us as we share with you our week in a thousand words.

Nigerian lower class: life and direct, no sugar-coating…It’s simply hot like drying sawdust on live-coal, no simile.
