The Association of Nigerian Authors (ANA) has extended warm congratulations to Mr. Uzor Nwamara, former Chairman of the Rivers State Chapter of the association, on the occasion of his birthday, celebrating a life dedicated to literature, creativity, and service to the Nigerian literary community.

This goodwill message was contained in a press statement jointly issued by the ANA President, Dr. Usman Oladipo Akanbi, and the General Secretary, Dame Joan Oji, PhD, who described Nwamara as a committed literary professional whose contributions have continued to enrich Nigerian letters and inspire emerging writers across the country.

Uzor Nwamara is a versatile poet, playwright, storyteller, essayist, broadcaster, and publisher. His works have featured widely on radio, newspapers, journals, book chapters, magazines, and various online platforms. His recent collection of poems, Pieces of Broken Things, further affirms his place as a thoughtful and compelling literary voice, while earlier works such as The Stone Breakers (Poems) and Dance of the Delta (Play) remain on the reading lists of several colleges and universities.

He also co-authored Elechi Amadi: A Quintessential Giant (Biography) and co-edited Rivers of Treasure (Short Stories), projects that underscore his commitment to preserving literary heritage and promoting collective storytelling within the Nigerian space.

ANA commended Nwamara’s leadership during his tenure as Chairman of the Rivers State Chapter and noted his membership of the International Communication Association (ICA), as well as his current doctoral research at the University of Port Harcourt. The association wished him good health, greater creative accomplishments, and continued success in his academic and literary pursuits.
