Dark Rhythms is another of Wellington Nwogu's classic, sterling and enthralling collection of poems; a vivacious verse of spanking new metaphors which tells of the agonizing situation of a people pummelled by pain, whose mouths sing of soured songs. Nwogu has carved a niche for himself which announces that he is one of the prodigious African poets that compels the attention of many readers, among other writers of his generation." - Purple Letters Publishers, Port Harcourt.

Verses in Wellington Nwogu's The Yawning Earth envelope the reader with frissons of delight with its lyrical abundance and nutmeg, like Niyi Osundare's sublimating redolent tonalities, opening a chapter of personal cogitations and societal woes that elicit self scrutiny. Here is a solid voice out of the fringe of Nigerian poetry that is bound to compel attention. -Henry Alcubuiro, The Sun Newspaper. The Yawning Earth often echoes the beauty of Niyi Osundare's poetry in its springlike flow...which says much about Nwogu's progress as a young poet who should, at the very least, be taken notice of. -Anaele Ihuoma, Author, Imminent River. In vibrant metaphors woven into a tapestry of rhythmically lean language, Wellington's The Yawning Earth brings out a fresh poetics voicing out the dystopia that has engulfed the land. The poems bristle with anger and hunger for a world that must be rescued from its downhill journey to the abyss. Nwogu's offering in this collection announces that he is indeed a young poet to look out for in the maze of Nigerian contemporary poetry. -Denja Abdullahi, Former President Association of Nigerian Authors. The Yawning Earth is an impressive lyric that portrays that clamour that hurts and screams with the soul... -Robinson Alexis Vera, Knight of Verses. Chilean, Poet.

"With this fascinating treatise, Woes of the Wolves, aesthetically woven for the delight of all literary enthusiasts; Wellington Nwogu artistically replicates dozens of rampant diverse abysmal quandaries in his homeland as perpetrated by the metaphoric 'wolves'...This presents Nwogu as an unswerving writer whose writings bother so much on social decadences and more." - Prof. Ozo-mekuri Ndimele, Former Vice Chancellor, Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Port Harcourt. "In this literary masterpiece, entitled, Woes of the Wolves, Nwogu effectively wields and reflects realities as he fights against the bane of corruption, impiety, greed and bad influences for the betterment of our society?" - BM Dzukogi, Former National Secretary,Association of Nigerian Authors. "There is something Kafkaesque about the creative works of Wellington Nwogu, especially with the prevailing circumstances surrounding his home country, Nigeria. His writings bring to the fore, different disturbing issues of humanity: issues, such as ravenous and wicked acts of people, among others as epitomized in his Woes of the Wolves, a profound play, written in a more creative manner." - Chi NDù EfóGò, Author, Oh Son of Dust, Port Harcourt, Nigeria. "Woes of the Woes is a classical and theatrical embodiment of the travails of the perpetually impoverished majority, and the minority (the so-called leaders), who continue to lavish on the frailties of the led. Wellington captures this epic reality in a lucid dramatisation of actions and consequences. Nature is indeed unbeatable!" - Dr. Ebidenyefa Tarila-Nikade, Author, Vulnerable Chronicles.

"Apropos, the poet's play on words with his title, A Field of Wars as he compares the necessity of certain wars to the farmer who must wage war on weeds. In this wonderful book, Wellington affirms that 'until the foundation of falsehood is shaken by iron hands, until weakness challenges strength, we will not partake in the blessings of the benevolent dew!' The book, therefore, abounds in metaphors giving clever examples of the need to fight for what is right, plus the vital need to be brave." -Liz Mastin, Author of Lake Dancers; Cour d'Alene, United States. "In A Field of Wars, Wellington Nwogu draws on familiar images of chaos and agony, to explore different sociopolitical upheavals that characterise Nigeria and elsewhere. With simple and rhythmic lines, Nwogu strikingly conveys an urge message that borders on redemption from social ruins." -Stephen Kekeghe, Ph.D, Joint winner, ANA Prize for Poetry, 2021. "Wellington Nwogu's A Field of Wars transports the reader to the realm of consciousness unto battling against whatever troubles his people as it reflects on the hope and victory that comes thereafter. Nwogu is a great poet that gets under your skin and sticks there like a tattoo." -Jerry Langdon, Editor of Raven Cage Zine, Germany. "In trying to find the fleeing home in the ashes and history, Wellington Nwogu interrogates the impacts of loss and hope. His direct and disarming voice is engineered by raw sincerity. He inimitably paints the rotten edifice of grief in our hearts with simple words." Umar Yogiza Jr. Award-winning poet.

"The degree of clarity and disposition of the playwright is commendable. The play Men of Double Shadows by design ventilates the cruel nature of man in a changing world... This is a promising literary piece." - Okon, Sunny Akpan, Lecturer, Akwa-Ibom State. "Men of Double Shadows teaches what happens when a society remains aloof to evil men. It took a young Christian to bring the reign of OKUNAMP| and his two friends to an end. It is a lesson in contemporary Nigeria that the just should resist the evil wherever and whenever they appear." -Nze Okechukwu Uwaekweikpe, Publisher/Editor-in-Chief, Zenith Newspaper, Umuahia. "It is beautiful to see Wellington Nwogu's passion for the theatre translated into script, with a theme worth more than a cursory attention. -Prof. Kontein Trinya, Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Port Harcourt. "This 'little' treatise is a pad that will launch Wellington to the sky of the literary world. My prayer is that he does not allow his pen to dry for whatever reason. A new giant is born!" - The Rev'd. Canon Chuka Opara, Director, Federal Ministry of Information, Rtd.
