Talabi: We are Driving Reading Revival in Nigeria Through AkadaChildren’s Book Festival

As the Akada Children’s Book Festival (ACBF) returns for its eighth edition, its mission has become increasingly urgent: to ensure that African children grow up reflecting in the stories they read. Founded by renowned children’s author and literacy advocate, OlubunmiAboderin Talabi, the festival has evolved into Nigeria and arguably Africa’s largest children’s literary gathering and a powerful cultural movement championing indigenous storytelling, literacy and identity formation.
