About Us

Africa’s Premier Poetry Creative Agency.

Orange Poetry is A Full-Service Creative Agency Crafting Unforgettable Brand Experiences through visual storytelling, film, and culture.

We are reimagining how stories are told across the continent.

Rooted in the expressive power of poetry, we bring a unique blend of artistic depth and commercial clarity to every project. From stage to screen, we help brands, artists, and organizations tell stories that move, connect, and inspire. We are a home for bold creatives, visionary brands, and unforgettable projects.

Founded by Director ET on December 31, 2019, our organization began operations on June 10, 2022, with Pariolodo serving as the Assistant Director. We provide a vibrant space for creatives to share their work, believing in poetry's power to inspire, educate, and unite people across cultures and communities.

Vision

To become Africa’s most trusted creative partner for poetry-driven storytelling, brand expression, and cultural innovation.

Mission

Our mission is to harness the expressive power of poetry, storytelling, and visual media to create transformative experiences that resonate deeply with audiences across Africa and beyond.

We are committed to:

  • Reimagining poetry as more than performance — as a dynamic lens through which stories are told, brands are built, and culture is documented.

  • Producing high-quality, culturally-rooted content that merges artistic depth with commercial strategy — empowering artists, elevating brand narratives, and inspiring social change.

  • Serving as a creative partner to brands, organizations, and individuals, offering full-service production from ideation to final execution — with emphasis on intentionality, emotional impact, and aesthetic excellence.

  • Developing platforms and opportunities for African poets, creatives, and storytellers to grow, be seen, and be heard — through live events, visual projects, residencies, and collaborative campaigns.

  • Bridging the gap between art and enterprise — positioning poetry as both a cultural heritage and a commercial asset in advertising, media, education, and development.

Who We Are

We are a collective of filmmakers, poets, producers, and strategists, deeply committed to African storytelling. Our work merges poetic insight with creative strategy — delivering projects that are not just visually compelling, but emotionally resonant.

Our Approach

We don’t just execute — we immerse. Whether it’s a brand film, a cultural event, or a poetry-led campaign, our process involves deep research, emotional insight, and hands-on creative direction to ensure that every output is intentional, innovative, and unforgettable.

Motto

"Awesome Spoken Word Poetry Every Day."

This motto reflects our commitment to delivering high-quality spoken word content that consistently inspires brand engagement.

Notable Achievements

Since our inception, Orange Poetry has made significant strides across Africa and beyond.

Here are some of our key milestones and accomplishments:

#ShareYourAfrica Challenge (May 2023)

Presented by Apollo Endeavor in partnership with Orange Poetry, the #ShareYourAfrica Challenge was held in celebration of Africa Month. This challenge showcased the beauty and diversity of Africa through the power of poetry and visual storytelling. One of the contents from the challenge was featured on Meta’s page, which has over 20 million followers, and three selected entries were highlighted on Tunde Ednut’s platform. The winners, @tamaradogubo, @iamdestiny777, and @moyosolaolowokure, captivated audiences with their unique perspectives, blending words and visuals to celebrate the richness of African culture.

Promoting Poetry Across Africa

Since our inception, we have produced and showcased videos of over fifty poets from across Africa, amplifying their voices and enriching the poetry landscape.

Orange Poetry Live Show

We have successfully held three editions of the Orange Poetry Live Show from June to August 2024, providing a platform for poets to perform and connect with a live audience, further enriching the spoken word community.

Collaborations with Literary Organizations

We have partnered with the Abuja Literary Society, covering events like the ALITFEST Poetry Slam in 2022 and 2023, and the Lagos International Poetry Festival (LIPFEST) slam event. In 2023, we documented the Port Harcourt Poetry Festival.

International Connections

We have collaborated with globally recognized poets such as Dike Chukwumerije, Graciano Enwerem, and Rudy Francisco, contributing to global poetry conversations through interviews and artistic exchange.

Orange Poetry Tour (August 2022)

The Orange Poetry Tour featured prominent poets like Dike Chukwumerije, Loveth Liberty (@lovethliberty), Pariolodo (@iampariolodo), and Abass Shitu, extending our shared vision of creating a multimedia platform for creatives to showcase their work. This event fostered a creative community and connected poets with a broader audience.

Pariolodo's LOVE IS NOT FOR THE BROKE (2023)

In partnership with Pariolodo, we hosted this solo performance in Abuja, which explored the complexities of transactional love and its socio-political implications. The event was humorous, thought-provoking, and a critical reflection on modern relationships.
