Example Sentences

"Yenagoa was more town than city, a settlement of dwarf houses, roofs level with the raised road. Billboards were particularly effective in this stunted landscape, malaria drugs, Alomo Bitters, Coca-Cola, Durex, Indomie, Winners School, and churches, plenty of them. Evangelists, pastors, apostles, prophets and bishops beamed down, inviting Chike to Amazing Grace Ministry, Fire Fall Down Tabernacle, Jehovah Always on Time Assembly. The air above Yenagoa must be thick with prayer, petitions flying and colliding on their way to heaven."
