FANTASTIC LINES OF WISDOM BOOK LAUNCH #FLOW2020
Finally the much anticipated book launch of the Fantastic Lines Of Wisdom was hosted virtually on the WhatsApp platform on Sunday December 6 2020 @ 6-9:30 pm a first of its kind innovation.
Supporters connected from within Nigeria, where the author is presently based as well as the diaspora; United Kingdom, USA, Germany, South Africa,, Isreal, Senegal, Ghana...
Dignitaries and top notch celebrities were in attendance en-masse.
The program flagged off with an opening prayer by the Senior Pastor of Rohi Compassionate And Apostolic Ministry(ROCAAM) Pastor Bola Oluwadamisi-JP.
The welcome note by the author, Emmanuella EsilokunOmoba Edun-Adedeji postceded the opening prayer.
The author expressed great joy about the moment, the launching of her 3rd book publication.
This book is different from the first two which are poetry collections; Pondering Whispers (paper-book) and More Than Just A She (audiobook).
The Fantastic Lines Of Wisdom is a cumulation of insightful nuggets exclusive to its author. It has 3 forewords, by Senator Shehu Sanni, a former senator of the federal republic of Nigeria, Bishop Funso Awe, a former gubernatorial candidate of the National Conscience Party during the 2019 elections and Professor Atutumama Okotie, founder of NAFLINKA, based in Chicago, USA.
The author happens to view life and living, diffently from the average person.
She is more ethereal focused than ephemeral.
Her words are drawn from in-depth analysis of life, garnered from personal and external experiences.
She calls herself "The Observer"
Closely following the welcome note was the recognition of notable guests and this was rendered by one of the comperes per excellence, Mr Fola Afolabi, the CEO of Naija Voice Studios and Head of The Creative Industry Group, Ibadan chapter, he was supported by two other comperes, Light Shedrack, the Publisher of the online news portal, Leading Reporters and Polette Bassey, an ace broadcaster in the making.
After the roll call, other individual participants, signified their presence.
Shortly after the recognition of guests, the performing artistes came on board and they wowed the audience...
Oge Kimono daughter of renowned raggae maestro of blessed memory Ras Kimono thrilled everyone with a Jam titled; Take me back to the days.
Torpedo Mascaw, WordSmith Extraordinaire a spoken word artist, thrilled the audience with an inspirational freestyle piece.
There was comedy, but the comedian Mc Abbey came in much later than the scheduled time, however, he was able to thrill the audience humorously.
The topping on the icing came when the Special Guest Of Honour And Guest Speaker came on board with a speech titled: Motivation, A Requisite For Sustainable Development.
He gave a profound speech that bordered around the need for self esteem and discovery.
The book review came next and was judiciously dissected by two personalities of great repute; Mr Charles Ideho, a thorough journalist and Jide Ologun Esq., a lawyer and public affairs analyst.
They both shared views that suggested that they held the book in high esteem and
they recommended it to all and Sundry.
The event drew to a close with a performance by MC Abbey, closing remarks by guests and a vote of thanks by the author.
Although it was Virtual, activities were enacted to ensure creativity was at play.
A Backdrop was designed as the DP of the event and notable companies like Lumiere Group Int'l, the company headed by the Special Guest Of Honour Dr Charles Douglas Fordjour, Gtbank, Sujimoto, Biscon TV, Soups Etal, Flourish... Were aptly represented.
The event ended with a closing Prayer By Bishop Funso Awe, a Bishop of the Anglican Communion.
The author hopes that this book can get to as many people as possible, with teenagers and youths as primary targets.
She hopes that individuals, groups and organisations will stand tall to support the distribution of this Noble project.
