"Someone as soon as acknowledged that poets don't own phrases, yet are possessed through phrases. 'Heroism of desire for Africa' is a fabricated from fecund suggestion, the paintings of a poet devoted to his paintings and its socio-political probabilities. Ahiabuike's poetry is clean, ordinary, and mellifluous, grounded in a special craft that depends upon the ability of instinct and shuns the blind spots of noticeable verities. The imagery of those poems is instantly shiny and deeply layered, honestly grim and hopeful. And the social dedication of Ahiabuike's verse is exemplary; it celebrates the tastes, smells, peoples, flavors, and futures of the land of his beginning with no oozing the conceited, hagiographical nationalism of comparable literary undertakings.

In Nigeria's massive promise, landscapes, peoples, cultures, aspirations, values, and within the range of its traditions, Ahiabuike has built a poetic pastiche of good looks and patriotic idealism. Powered by way of this wealthy repertoire of inspirational resources, those verses come alive as one reads them, dissolving the regularly occurring, banal optics of misplaced factors and truncated goals. during this rigorously prepared assortment we see a brand new Nigeria emerge with readability and literary energy. Ahiabuike's triumph is in poetically arousing and guiding our deadened senses to Africa's probabilities and to its counter-intuitive opportunities."
