Otukpo is a town in Nigeria. The only library in town was also a social center and many of us learnt to read and write there. These are some of the pictures I took on my last visit to Nigeria. I am leading an effort to restore this library. Let me know if you can help.

This is not a Nigerian prince trapped on Mars scam. I live in the US and I’m an Iraq war vet.

Save our library

I read some of these books as an 8year old. I am 43 years now.

Broken chairs at Otukpo library

The chairs have not been changed in over 40 years.

Leaking roof

Rains freely fall in. Broken windows too.
