AKADA CHILDREN’S BOOK FESTIVAL is solving child illiteracy by giving Nigerian kids access to quality African books. We’re the 1st & only Nigerian book festival for children. ACBF holds every year since 2019. Pls see why making us 1 of the 20 beneficiaries is a great move👇🏽#WRBLO

Such talents! 👏🏾 We present to you the TOP 3 FINALISTS of the #akadafestival illustration competition. Each of this kid artist creatively illustrated what their happy place is. Well done to each of them! Kylian was also a finalist at last year's festival illustration competition.

From @JenniferNwokej2's "Use Your Words" we learnt that you need to use words to express and explain yourself as well as communicate with others. #AkadaFestival
"My Fruits; My Alphabet" is such a colourful book with yummy fruits! Nice one @NdyDorothy #AkadaFestival
