During the AfD I did some Internet research with the results being filed in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simbo Olorunfemi. The article mentions two books, Rhythm of the Coins (1993) and EKO REE – the many faces of Lagos (2003). I found a third, Singing in the Rain (2007). All three are poetry collections. --Marc Kupper|talk 01:39, 3 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
I tried to verify the nomination for the Nigerian Media Merit Award (NMMA) and found this list of winners but not the nominees. I'm bringing this item up as it's possible the NMMA qualifies as a notable award meaning an article could be made for it. --Marc Kupper|talk 19:11, 6 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
