The plight of the Niger Delta, amongst the myriad of economic, socio-cultural and environmental shortcomings of postcolonial Nigeria, is as timeless as the rather lackadaisical attitude of the Nigerian government towards it. In this collection, the reader is confronted with the audacity of such timelessness, captured in the reliving of such bizarre experience in each poem.
- Nket Godwin, poet, literary critic, book reviewer. Ocean Tears is a poignant exploration of the deep-rooted pain and suffering experienced by the Niger Deltans. Through evocative lines, the collection depicts the devastating impact of environmental degradation, corporate greed, and governmental neglect on the lives of those living in the Niger Delta region. Each poem in the collection is a cry for justice, a lament for the land and its people, and a call for change. "Ocean Tears" is a heartfelt and moving tribute to the resilience and strength of the Niger Deltans in the face of adversity, shedding light on a pressing issue that demands attention and action.
- John Chinaka Onyeche, poet, historian & author of 25 Atonements.
