We are excited to announce the launch of the Question Marker with this debut issue.
In this issue, Solomon Elusoji, a staff writer and part of the Question Marker’s editorial team, wrote about pant-stealing in Nigeria, Buhari’s faults, Fela Durotoye’s presidential ambition and the ASUU strike, which is now in its third month.
Staff writers, Olisa Eloka and Eke Jude also wrote about the Biafra war and Falz’s latest album, respectively, and Hymar David contributed a riveting story of his visit to Makoko, a slum in Lagos. For this month’s fiction story, David also explored the link between brothers and their parents in ‘We waded through water’.
You’ll find a list of the stories we published below. And don’t forget to let us know what you think on social media. We’ll be back next month, with more.
