Summary:

Ola Rotini, the great Nigerian playwright, died in 2000. He was reworking two of his plays:Man Talk, Women Talk and Tororo, Tororo, Roro. They are now published posthumously, and represent an epilogue to his career as a theatre artist and comic playwright. In the first play, Rotimi seeks, with wry humour, resolution of the biases men and women hold against one another; and in the second, the lessons of sharing other peoples problems are illuminated with comic effect. Effiok B. Unwatt is an Associate Professor of Literature, and Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Abuja. He is a former Head of the Department of English and Literary Studies.
