Ike Oguine is a writer living in Lagos, Nigeria, and one of the standard-bearers of the current resurgence in Nigerian literature. As a commentator, he has written several opinion pieces for the "New Internationalist", "West Africa" and "Times Literary Supplement", and has written several short stories.

His first novel, "A Squatter's Tale", was published by Heinemann in 2000, and explores the paradoxes of emigration through the aspirations and disappointments of a young Nigerian in California.
