Some say the golden era of Nigerian literature is over, they believe that there are no heirs to the literary throne of Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka, and other Story telling giants. We beg to differ.

We believe that the next Nigerian Nobel prize in literature winner is a young person out there with stories that will revolutionize African literature. We believe that storytelling can be done through different mediums including graphic designing. We believe when we merge writing and graphics, we can create magic! That’s why we are glad that you have chosen to partake in the Penthusia graphic novel contest.

Asides the exciting prizes you stand a chance to win, this is an opportunity for you to create memorable stories that will grow the reading culture in our beloved country Nigeria which is one of our major objectives. We won’t only reward your story telling ability, we will reward your creativity, team spirit, and hard work.

Here’s to the next generation of amazing writers, excellent graphic designers, and well rounded storytellers. Here’s to you! Welcome to the biggest story telling competition of the year. We wish you success!
