New York, NY, April 13, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Fran Ify Anyansi, a loving mother of three daughters and grandmother to eight, has completed her new book, “Ilamina, My Sister”: a poignant and stirring play that details the lives and struggles of two friends and their families living in the Niger Delta and experiences tragedy and anguish due to a corrupt system that serves only themselves, leaving people to suffer away.

Author Fran Ify Anyansi is a seventy-three-year-old retired Nigerian teacher who taught at Federal Government College, Federal School of Arts and Science, and Federal Government College, all of which are secondary schools in Nigeria. She ended her career as an inspector at the Nigerian Federal Inspectorate Division, Port Harcourt, and holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in English language and Literary Appreciation, as well as a Higher National Diploma in business studies. Though Fran has been writing over the years, “Ilamina, My Sister” is her first published work.

“Tarri and his friend, Dokugbo, are already dissatisfied with life in their community,” shares Anyansi. “It is an endless tale of woe, suffering, poverty, deprivation, degradation, and unfulfilled promises by the federal government and local politicians.

“All this strife and frustration experienced by Tarri and Dokugbo eventually result in calamities in their families, starting with Ilamina, Tarri’s sister, a young and beautiful teenager, a victim of the deprivation and degradation. This had a rippling effect, which brings about pain and sorrow not just to Tarri and Dokugbo but to the entire community of Tumbila.

“This is a story of the Niger Delta struggle where the economy of the country is sustained by the oil obtained from the Niger Delta; and yet the people still suffer degradation, deprivation, and injustice.

“So what’s the benefit of the oil?”
