IBADAN BOOK CLUB BEGS NIGERIAN BOOK FAIR TRUST TO REVIVE IBADAN BOOK FAIR

 

Ibadan Book Club is appealing to the Nigerian Book Fair Trust to revive the Ibadan Book Fair, which has been inactive for few years. The book fair was an annual event that brought together book lovers, writers, publishers, and booksellers in Ibadan, Nigeria's third largest city.

In a statement signed by the Coordinator of the Club, Ayobami Odunyemi on Monday in Ibadan said the Ibadan Book Club, a group of book enthusiasts, was formed with the aim of promoting reading and the book culture in Ibadan. The club has been organizing various book-related events, including book clubs, author visits, and book launches, to encourage reading and promote the publishing industry.

However, the club members believe that the Ibadan Book Fair, which was a major event in the city's cultural calendar, should be revived to further promote the book culture. The book fair provided a platform for book lovers to meet, discuss books, and purchase new releases. It was also an opportunity for publishers and booksellers to showcase their products and reach new customers.

The Ibadan Book Club members believe that the book fair is an essential event that should be included in the city's cultural calendar. They believe that reviving the book fair will encourage reading, promote the publishing industry, and create a community of book lovers in Ibadan.

The club members also believe that reviving the book fair will benefit the wider community. By promoting reading and the book culture, the book fair will help to improve literacy rates and encourage lifelong learning. Additionally, the book fair will provide a platform for local writers to showcase their work and reach new audiences.

The Ibadan Book Club is committed to supporting the revival of the Ibadan Book Fair and is willing to provide any assistance necessary. The club members believe that reviving the book fair is a step towards creating a more literate and culturally rich society in Ibadan.

The Ibadan Book Club is hopeful that the Nigerian Book Fair Trust will respond positively to its appeal and revive the Ibadan Book Fair. The club members believe that reviving the book fair will be a significant step towards promoting reading and the book culture in Ibadan, and will benefit the wider community in the long term.
