          Ghanaian poet, cultural activist and academic (1941–2018)

          Atukwei John Okai (15 March 1941[1] – 13 July 2018)[2] was a Ghanaian poet, cultural activist and academic.[3] He was Secretary-General of the Pan African Writers' Association, and a president of the Ghana Association of Writers.

          His early work was published under the name John Okai. With his poems rooted in the oral tradition,[4] he is generally acknowledged to have been the first real performance poet to emerge from Africa,[5] and his work has been called "also politically radical and socially conscious, one of his great concerns being Pan-Africanism".[citation needed] His performances on radio and television worldwide include an acclaimed 1975 appearance at Poetry International at Queen Elizabeth Hall in London, where he shared the stage with US poets Stanley Kunitz and Robert Lowell, and Nicolás Guillén of Cuba.[6]
