Summary
The Porch Light Stayed On by Odunayo Yomi.A is a heartfelt story about love, memory, and endurance told through generations on Olori Street. It begins with Mama Ebele, who keeps her porch light burning as a symbol of hope and waiting. After her passing, others—her grandson Chidi, young Ada, and later Ijeoma—continue the tradition, each finding healing and meaning in its glow. The light becomes a beacon for the community, uniting them through storms, loss, and new beginnings. In the end, it stands as a timeless reminder that love, once kindled, never truly fades—it simply finds new hearts to shine through.
