Kumashe Caroline Yaakugh was born and raised in the sleepy town of Makurdi, Benue State. Growing up in a family of book lovers, she took to reading at a very young age. Some of her favourite indigenous writers while growing up were Chinua Achebe and Ola Rotimi. However, the zeal to become a writer was born after she read Sally Kenneth Dadzie’s Fish Brain Series, which included a character from the Tiv tribe of Benue State, Nigeria.
As an author, one of her dreams is to bring characters from her ethnic group to light and guide them to the minds of millions of readers across the world in mind-grasping tales. When she’s not reading a book accompanied by wine, Kumashe loves to spend her evenings’ salsa dancing.
Kumashe Yaakugh holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Mass Communication and currently works as a lifestyle editor for Legit.ng
