I have lived my entire life (42 years)through books; I can’t think anything else that’s had a profound effect on me as books have.

From my 4th Birthday present from my dad (Favourite book of nursery rhymes) to the great Nigerian novels and texts of the 1980s to discovering Marx, Fannon, Camus and Malcolm X, my abiding memories are of reading voraciously.

In today’s era of social media, fake news and instant gratification, I am determined to remain committed to reading for it’s alongside exercising,the greatest anti depressant ever known to man.
