Have you heard about #WordsUnspoken

About the initiator
Graham Garrick, the initiator, is a spoken word artiste and is regarded as one of the most promising young poets in the southern part of Nigeria. He is currently in his 4th year in the University of Benin studying Law as his first degree. 

Graham Garrick is a voice of his generation and has been recognised as such in the realm of spoken word for his works such as; "If I were him", "He understands", "My first love ", "life on the edge", "Assumption" and the very popular "Abike" to mention but a few. The striking difference that pulled Graham Garrick into the limelight is his commitment to the advancement of the gospel as the words he speaks all point to the gospel of grace directed majorly to the youths.

He holds the view that the;  
"baton of life will one day be passed onto the youths and as such we need to be prepared in every way and this can only be done by us possessing a new thinking pattern"

About Words unspoken 
Words Unspoken, fundamentally, is a spoken words poetry concert‎ initiated by Graham Garrick. It is a concert geared towards the propagation of the gospel and creation of impact In the society through the art of words. Words Unspoken 2015 is the maiden edition of this event as it is intended not to be a one time event. In as much as spoken word is the focal point or medium through which the gospel is propagated, this would be done in conjunction with other arts. We would also showcase dance, music and arts. This year the team of Words Unspoken intends not only to add value to our society through art but also to add substance and hope. While the former is to be done through ministration on stage, the latter is to be done by us raising funds for a selected charity. We intend to use the concert to raise substance no matter how little for the less privileged.
