I really would like to know about the actors' present. The Internet gives nothing.
I’m currently writing a research paper on #DAKAN and recently learned that the director, Mohamed Camara, struggled to find actors willing to take on the roles in the film. As a result, he played Bakary, Sori’s father, himself and cast his brother to play Manga.

“UGOMMA’S LIFE CHANGED THE DAY she returned from school, and after lunch, her mother told her a suitor was coming to ask for her hand in marriage. It was a sharp turning point in her life like she was a sailor of a ship where a fierce wind blew…” Read afapinen.com/2026/06/06/chuk…

In a country women are råped on camera, teachers beheaded, children abducted and tortured, and havoc is wreaked on settlements, citizens are having a ball with terrorists on Tiktok. Some ask to join the terrorists while others ask that their areas be visited. Nigeria is lost.

Before Tuesday, I had been struggling to write a non-fiction piece for months. I wanted it to be original and ambitious in form but was unsure about the shape or structure to give it to achieve that. You can't believe where the best possible idea came from.

It came from a brief conversation I overheard a JS1 student have with his friend about their Catechism classes. If/when the story gets accepted, I'll walk up to that boy and tell him about the impact he made on a senior secondary school teacher whose writing life was stalling!

No, you actually weren't I did it on the Commonwealth X post, same day the links to the stories were shared. I even emailed the Commonwealth that same day. Check the date you posted on Reddit and the date I quoted the post and commented on it, which led to a thread.

This year, I'm certain the Commonwealth team will receive a record-breaking number of submissions. Over a million, I reckon. The odds will be favourable for each entrant. Who wouldn't take a shot at THE COMMONWEALTH PRIZE FOR AI SLOP?

After promising to investigate, the Commonwealth releases a statement like this. Do they think we all go about using AI tools to detect AI writing, and that a writer would agree they used AI if contacted? Save what's left of your faces, People, but an ugly precedent has been set.
Four days ago, not long after the links to the winning stories were posted, I read "The Serpent in the Grove" and suspected subterfuge. I posted about it, then quietly emailed my observations in detail to The Commonwealth team. They just responded to me. Fingers crossed.

The major problem is that AI (Claude, I mostly suspect) was involved in that story, in whole or in part. I can stake my kidney on it.

An X user made a post that Chioma, Davido's wife, was unfaithful and HIV-positive. This notorious trend of defaming people on X for impressions and pay is troubling. Labelling such extreme acts as free speech is dishonest. One, Swanky, has been sentenced. Yes, I hope for more.
