About this listen
“The Cries of an Egghead” is a powerful poetic anthology by Dr. Charles Omole, blending intellectual rigour with emotional candour. These poems explore the anguish, disillusionment, and deep yearning for transformation within Nigeria, Africa, and the broader Black experience. Through vivid imagery and lyrical protest, the collection confronts corruption, failed leadership, youth unemployment, gender inequity, and the erosion of cultural identity. Each poem is a mirror held to society and a call to conscience—provoking reflection and action.
With unflinching honesty and a hopeful vision, Dr Omole speaks for the silenced, mourns the lost promise of post-colonial freedom, and champions a future grounded in justice, education, unity, and ethical leadership. These verses are intellectual excavations far from mere aesthetic exercises—scarred, spirited, and soaked in truth.
This anthology is both a lament and a blueprint, offering a searing voice of reason and resolve from one of Africa’s most thoughtful minds.
