Folks should remember the late Cyprian Ekwensi was an Igboman, yet, a few of his novels were set in northern Nigeria. The novel 'Burning Grass' for instance, was set among the nomadic Fulani ethnic-nationality. 'The Pasport of Mallam Illiya' was another novel of his, this time the a drama took place in northern Nigeria, while the characters were of the Hausa ethn-national group.
