So finally it went down at Colab, the first episode of purplesilver open
mic. It was an evening of fun and colourful words in Kaduna. Poets,
artists and art lovers converged in the beautiful and inspiring space of
Colab to engage and chill. 
The evening kicked off with an interesting discuss on Dictatorship in Africa and the voice of the West. There was a seeming general consensus that every society defines the style of leadership that suits it. Some raised concerns of human rights violation by dictators.
Then the biz of the day, the elegant Mimi thrilled with a poem about the girl on her street, that reinforced self belief. Sada Malumfashi was his usual witty self with an excerpt from his short story. Shittu Fowora and Saddiq Dzukogi performed two beautiful poems that had us screaming for more.
We had fun fun and are looking forward to next Sunday. What are you waiting for? Be there!
