Alert! Nigerian news website Punch is reporting that Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka will judge the next installment of the BBC’s Africa radio drama competition.
BOOK SA can’t find further details of the competition, but it might run along the same lines as the international competition the BBC held last year.
Anyone with information on the rules of entry, please post them as a comment below! Thanks.
Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has accepted to be a judge in next year’s British Broadcasting Corporation’s World Service African drama competition, the BBC said on Thursday.
In accepting the role, Soyinka said BBC’s season of African radio drama cut across Africa in a way that “even the written word on its own may not have.”
