2023 play by Obari Gomba

Grit is a 2023 family saga play written by Nigerian playwright Obari Gomba published in 2023. It won the 2023 Nigeria Prize for Literature.

Nzube Nlebedim in a review for Brittle Paper called it magnificent and multifaceted, praising Gomba's didactic prose. Lindsay Barrett in Leadership described it as "a cautionary tale in which the reader or the onlooker is being alerted to the resilience and determined existence of GRIT as a quality of life. ... a wholesome commentary on Nigeria's contemporary political circumstance."
