JOIN THE EMOTION FAMILY: CALL FOR SUBMISSION
Emotion Press, Nigeria was established in 2011 to project the future ones. Ever since then, we have published Lucius Ndimele, Emma Ohi, Adebayo Sakiru, Oluwafemi Oloidi, Femi Ogundairo, Ufuoma Bakporhe, and of recent Ikechukwu Patsy and Olaide Oladapo under the Omojojolo imprint.
The Omojojolo imprint offers authors, whose works must have been ascertained fit enough to be published by our in-house reader, at a reasonable budget, the best of publishing and publicity.
In the year 2013, Emotion Press launched BookRepublic – http://www.bukrepublik.com – an online literary magazine that has published several articles and interviewed emerging Nigerian writers. A year after, the company launched its literary television programme – Booktv Africa – a unique media platform aimed at making books seem cool to young Africans.
