Kayode Femi Oyelaran

Journalist and author

  • ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌ Kano, Kano, Nigeria
  • Kano Times
  • 2017 to 2025
  • English, Yoruba
I write local history. My work has appeared in Kano Times and a few places that have long since closed. I run a small writing group that meets every second Thursday. I always make time for a proper cup of tea.

More about Kayode

Some of my pieces still make me wince. Some, I'm proud of.
