Double Jeopardy - The Doyin Okupe Story
When I woke up, I was lying on a sea of money. This particular event affected my orientation about our legal tender and I lost every regard for money. & rdquo; & ldquo;The greatest insult you can haul at me is to call me a thief. & rdquo; & ldquo;It was while working at St. Nicholas Hospital in Lagos that I took the step to go into politics which was largely informed by my desire to heal the world in a bigger theatre. & rdquo; & ldquo;Any situation that tries to increase the dominance of a part of the country for more than is prescribed in the constitution through surreptitious postulation is nonsensical, unacceptable and inimical to the good health and stability of the country. & rdquo; & ldquo;The prevailing political sentiments within a nation must be acknowledged, respected and accepted by the ruling class. We cannot just leave everything to democracy. & rdquo; & ldquo;Our brothers in the southeast must resolve internally where they stand, with Nigeria or not.They have a right to take either decision and either decision has its consequences. & rdquo; & ldquo;I will like to share two more points here to teach our contemporary politicians. When we were doing our NRC presidential primaries, the leading candidate was Mallam Adamu Ciroma who was backed by the northern establishment. The leadership of the party: Tom Ikimi and Alhaji Alhaji among others, were also in support of him. However, I led other lower ranking officers: Buba Galadima, Tijani Ramallan, Alhaji Mijin Yawa and Kabiru Yahaya, to go against their choice because we believed that Adamu Ciroma represented the old establishment. His victory would make the old establishment feel that their rigid way of doing things was the only right approach. Thus, there would be no room for liberalism, innovation or accommodation of new ideas. A certain former minister and an influential politician, name withheld, from the northcalled me to a meeting at Hilton and said, & ldquo;What will it take you to support Adamu Ciroma...? & rdquo;These and many other intriguing moments await you as you open the pages of Dr. Doyin Okupe & rsquo;s explosive chronicle of his life as a front-row partaker in Nigeria & rsquo;s political history of the past four decades. No-holds-barred, incisive and forthright, Dr. Okupe & rsquo;s autobiography cum personal views about the highs and lows of Nigeria & rsquo;s political experiment will surely be one of the major topics of the year.A MUST-READ FOR LOVERS OF POLITICAL HISTORY, JOURNALISTS, PUBLIC AFFAIRS ANALYSTS, STUDENTS OF POLITICS AND MASS COMMUNICATION AND ALL THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR THE NIGERIAN NATION AND AFRICA AT LARGE.

A Promised Land
A riveting, deeply personal account of history in the making & mdash;from the president who inspired us to believe in the power of democracy In the stirring, highly anticipated first volume of his presidential memoirs, Barack Obama tells the story of his improbable odyssey from young man searching for his identity to leader of the free world, describing in strikingly personal detail both his political education and the landmark moments of the first term of his historic presidency & mdash;a time of dramatic transformation and turmoil. Obama takes readers on a compelling journey from his earliest political aspirations to the pivotal Iowa caucus victory that demonstrated the power of grassroots activism to the watershed night of November 4, 2008, when he was elected 44th president of the United States, becoming the first African American to hold the nation & rsquo;s highest office. Reflecting on the presidency, he offers a unique and thoughtful exploration of both the awesome reach and the limits of presidential power, as well as singular insights into the dynamics of U.S. partisan politics and international diplomacy. Obama brings readers inside the Oval Office and the White House Situation Room, and to Moscow, Cairo, Beijing, and points beyond. We are privy to his thoughts as he assembles his cabinet, wrestles with a global financial crisis, takes the measure of Vladimir Putin, overcomes seemingly insurmountable odds to secure passage of the Affordable Care Act, clashes with generals about U.S. strategy in Afghanistan, tackles Wall Street reform, responds to the devastating Deepwater Horizon blowout, and authorizes Operation Neptune & rsquo;s Spear, which leads to the death of Osama bin Laden. A Promised Land is extraordinarily intimate and introspective & mdash;the story of one man & rsquo;s bet with history, the faith of a community organizer tested on the world stage. Obama is candid about the balancing act of running for office as a Black American, bearing the expectations of a generation buoyed by messages of & ldquo;hope and change, & rdquo; and meeting the moral challenges of high-stakes decision-making. He is frank about the forces that opposed him at home and abroad, open about how living in the White House affected his wife and daughters, and unafraid to reveal self-doubt and disappointment. Yet he never wavers from his belief that inside the great, ongoing American experiment, progress is always possible. This beautifully written and powerful book captures Barack Obama & rsquo;s conviction that democracy is not a gift from on high but something founded on empathy and common understanding and built together, day by day.

I Am Still With You: A Reckoning With Silence - Inheritance - And History
In this & ldquo;epic and intimate & rdquo; memoir (Margo Jefferson, author of Constructing a Nervous System), acclaimed writer Emmanuel Iduma returns to Nigeria to investigate the disappearance of his uncle and confront the truth about a war that shaped him, his family, and a nation: & ldquo;Quietly brilliant & rdquo; (Vulture)NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORKER AND TIME MAGAZINEIn inimitable, rhythmic prose, the author and winner of the prestigious Windham-Campbell Prize Emmanuel Iduma tells the story of his return to Nigeria, where he grew up, after years of living in New York. He traveled home with an elusive mission: to learn the fate of his uncle Emmanuel, his namesake, who disappeared in the Nigerian Civil War in the late 1960s. A conflict that left so many families broken, the war remains at the margins of the history books, almost taboo to discuss. To find answers, Iduma stopped in city after city throughout the former Biafra region, reconnecting with relatives dear and distant to probe their memories, prowling university libraries to furtively photocopy illicit books, and visiting half-abandoned monuments along the highway. Perhaps, he realized, if he could understand how his father grieved the loss of a brother in the war, he might learn how to grieve his late father in turn. His is also the story of countless families across the country and across the world who will never have answers or proper funerals for their loved ones. It & rsquo;s a story about the birth of an artist, about writing itself as an act both healing and political, even dangerous. And it & rsquo;s a story about family history and legacy, and all the questions the dead leave unanswered. How much of the author & rsquo;s identity is wrapped up in this inheritance? And what does it mean to return home, when the people who define it are gone? Equal parts memoir, national history, and political reckoning, I Am Still With You is a profoundly personal story of collective loss and making peace with the unknowable.

High Financier: The Lives And Time Of Siegmund Warburg
Bestselling author Niall Ferguson reveals for the first time the true extent of Siegmund Warburg's influence-and the lessons we can learn in a time of crisis from the last of the high financiers."Success from the financial and from the prestige point of view . . . is not enough; what matters even more is . . . adherence to high moral and aesthetic standards."-Siegmund Warburg, 1959In this pathbreaking new biography, based on more than ten thousand hitherto unavailable letters and diary entries, bestselling author Niall Ferguson returns to his roots as a financial historian to tell the story of Siegmund Warburg, an extraordinary man whose austere philosophy of finance offers much insight today.A refugee from Hitler's Germany, Warburg rose to become the dominant figure in postwar City of London and one of the architects of European financial integration. Seared by the nearcollapse and then "Aryanization" of his family's long-established bank in the 1930s and then frustrated by the stagnation of its Wall Street sister, Kuhn Loeb, in the 1950s, Warburg resolved that his own firm of S. G. Warburg (founded in 1946) would be different.An obsessive perfectionist with an aversion to excessive risk, Warburg came to embody the ideals of the haute banquet-high finance- always eschewing the fast buck in favor of gilt-edged advice. He was not only the master of the modern merger and founder of the eurobond; he was also a key behind-the-scenes adviser to governments in London, Tokyo, and Jerusalem-to his critics, a "financial Rasputin." Like a character from a Thomas Mann novel, Warburg was a complex and ambivalent man, as much a psychologist, politician, and actor-manager as he was a banker. In High Financier Niall Ferguson shares the first book-length examination of a man whose life and work suggest an alternative to the troubled business principles that helped shape our current financial landscape.

Ibadan: The Penkelemes Years
"Ibadan" is the third volume in Wole Soyinka's series of memoirs, the sequel to "Ake and Isara". In a mixture of fact and fiction - to protect the innocent and nail the guilty and shape an often intolerable reality - it tells of the coming of age of a writer and political activist; and of a nation's betrayal. Linking national and international events with personal experience across 20 years, from confrontations with French immigration officers and the trauma of being black in Britain, to the direct experience of corruption, ballot-rigging, and power-mongering in his native Nigeria - a period otherwise known as the Penkelemes years - "Ibadan" is an exploration into themes of racism, politics and injustice.

Ayinla Omowura
This book is a narrative of the life and times of one of the most profound and unarguably, one of the most original Yoruba musicians of post-colonial Nigeria. Murdered in a barroom brawl in Abeokuta, Ogun State 1980, Ayinla Omowura, forty years after his untimely passage, has refused to die, both in the consciousness of the people of South West Nigeria, even elsewhere, as well as in the hearts and on the lips of the people. Famous for his outlawry and romance with the banned substance called marijuana, Omowura exhibited a depth of musical profundity, scholarship and the captivating voice of a songbird, a troika that is rare in contemporary Nigerian music. This book is thus an attempt to properly situate and reconfigure what Omowura represented to the postcolonial society.

One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient struggling to live. And just like that, the future he and his wife had imagined evaporated. When Breath Becomes Air chronicles Kalanithi & rsquo;s transformation from a na & iuml;ve medical student & ldquo;possessed, & rdquo; as he wrote, & ldquo;by the question of what, given that all organisms die, makes a virtuous and meaningful life & rdquo; into a neurosurgeon at Stanford working in the brain, the most critical place for human identity, and finally into a patient and new father confronting his own mortality.What makes life worth living in the face of death? What do you do when the future, no longer a ladder toward your goals in life, flattens out into a perpetual present? What does it mean to have a child, to nurture a new life as another fades away? These are some of the questions Kalanithi wrestles with in this profoundly moving, exquisitely observed memoir.Paul Kalanithi died in March 2015, while working on this book, yet his words live on as a guide and a gift to us all. & ldquo;I began to realize that coming face to face with my own mortality, in a sense, had changed nothing and everything, & rdquo; he wrote. & ldquo;Seven words from Samuel Beckett began to repeat in my head: & lsquo;I can & rsquo;t go on.

Behind his back, she was trying to orchestrate an armed seizure of power, a path he feared would lead to an endless civil war.Jonny Steinberg tells the tale of this unique marriage & mdash;its longings, its obsessions, its deceits & mdash;making South African history a page-turning political biography. Winnie and Nelson is a modern epic in which trauma doesn & rsquo;t affect just the couple at its center, but an entire nation. It is also a Shakespearean drama in which bonds of love and commitment mingle with timeless questions of revolution, such as whether to seek retribution or a negotiated peace. Steinberg reveals, with power and tender emotional insight, how far these forever-entwined leaders would go for each other and where they drew the line. For in the end, both knew theirs was not simply a marriage, but a contest to decide how apartheid should be fought.

The War Against Counterfeit Medicne - My Story
There is a general agreement that piracy; counterfeiting and passing off are unfair. However, there is often surreptitious - or even open - sympathy for, say, those who purchase counterfeit designer fashions or the latest technical gadgets. The pirate is even sometimes represented as a dared evil hero. In this book, Prof. Dora Nkem Akunyili, Director General of Nigeria's National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, presents a unique study of a global phenomenon in which lawbreaking and profiteering prevail at the cost of human health and life - and of the ways in which this can be fought by appropriate legislation, regulation and enforcement.

One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient struggling to live. And just like that, the future he and his wife had imagined evaporated. When Breath Becomes Air chronicles Kalanithi & rsquo;s transformation from a na & iuml;ve medical student & ldquo;possessed, & rdquo; as he wrote, & ldquo;by the question of what, given that all organisms die, makes a virtuous and meaningful life & rdquo; into a neurosurgeon at Stanford working in the brain, the most critical place for human identity, and finally into a patient and new father confronting his own mortality.What makes life worth living in the face of death? What do you do when the future, no longer a ladder toward your goals in life, flattens out into a perpetual present? What does it mean to have a child, to nurture a new life as another fades away? These are some of the questions Kalanithi wrestles with in this profoundly moving, exquisitely observed memoir.Paul Kalanithi died in March 2015, while working on this book, yet his words live on as a guide and a gift to us all. & ldquo;I began to realize that coming face to face with my own mortality, in a sense, had changed nothing and everything, & rdquo; he wrote. & ldquo;Seven words from Samuel Beckett began to repeat in my head: & lsquo;I can & rsquo;t go on. I & rsquo;ll go on. & rsquo; & rdquo; When Breath Becomes Air is an unforgettable, life-affirming reflection on the challenge of facing death and on the relationship between doctor and patient, from a brilliant writer who became both.

Mortality
On June 8, 2010, while on a book tour for his bestselling memoir, Hitch-22, Christopher Hitchens was stricken in his New York hotel room with excruciating pain in his chest and thorax. As he would later write in the first of a series of award-winning columns for Vanity Fair, he suddenly found himself being deported "from the country of the well across the stark frontier that marks off the land of malady." Over the next eighteen months, until his death in Houston on December 15, 2011, he wrote constantly and brilliantly on politics and culture, astonishing readers with his capacity for superior work even in extremis.Throughout the course of his ordeal battling esophageal cancer, Hitchens adamantly and bravely refused the solace of religion, preferring to confront death with both eyes open. In this riveting account of his affliction, Hitchens poignantly describes the torments of illness, discusses its taboos, and explores how disease transforms experience and changes our relationship to the world around us. By turns personal and philosophical, Hitchens embraces the full panoply of human emotions as cancer invades his body and compels him to grapple with the enigma of death.Mortality is the exemplary story of one man's refusal to cower in the face of the unknown, as well as a searching look at the human predicament. Crisp and vivid, veined throughout with penetrating intelligence, Hitchens's testament is a courageous and lucid work of literature, an affirmation of the dignity and worth of man

Reel Life - My Years Managing Public Service
Reel Life is a masterpiece on Nigeria's broadcasting history, bold and transparent public leadership, governance and finance of a public organisation. It is about deploying television content as a tool for forging national unity and as a catalyst for national mass mobilisation and social change.This memoir captures the chequered and rollercoaster evolution of ownership of broadcasting organisations from a mix of public private partnership to full government ownership and now distinct government and private ownership. It is replete with instances of the conflict between board oversight in public organisations and interference in management issues. The narrative shows that one can continue to be a public servant without being in public office.The evolution or development of any country requires an understanding of history in order to appreciate what is feasible in the creation of an informed vision for the future that can inspire evolution to greatness. As aptly captured in Leadership: Six Studies in World Strategy; The Axes of Leadership, & ldquo;Leaders think and act at the intersection of two axes: the first, between the past and the future: the second, between the abiding values and aspirations of those they lead. Their first challenge is analysis, which begins with a realistic assessment of their society based on its history, mores, and capacities. Then they must balance what they know, which is necessarily drawn from the past, with what they intuit about the future, which is inherently conjectural and uncertain. & rdquo;Reel Life chronicles the history of public broadcasting service in Africa. There is hardly anyone better to do so than Engineer Vincent Maduka the first Director General of the Nigerian Television Authority. It is a must read for all followers and students of mass communication, history, politics and leadership in Nigeria.

The Wager - A Tale Of Shipwreck / Mutiny And Murder
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER & bull; From the author of Killers of the Flower Moon, a page-turning story of shipwreck, survival, and savagery, culminating in a court martial that reveals a shocking truth. The powerful narrative reveals the deeper meaning of the events on The Wager, showing that it was not only the captain and crew who ended up on trial, but the very idea of empire.A Best Book of the Year: The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, TIME, Smithsonian, NPR, Vulture, Kirkus Reviews & ldquo;Riveting...Reads like a thriller, tackling a multilayered history & mdash;and imperialism & mdash;with gusto. & rdquo; & mdash;Time"A tour de force of narrative nonfiction. & rdquo; & mdash;The Wall Street JournalOn January 28, 1742, a ramshackle vessel of patched-together wood and cloth washed up on the coast of Brazil. Inside were thirty emaciated men, barely alive, and they had an extraordinary tale to tell. They were survivors of His Majesty & rsquo;s Ship the Wager, a British vessel that had left England in 1740 on a secret mission during an imperial war with Spain. While the Wager had been chasing a Spanish treasure-filled galleon known as & ldquo;the prize of all the oceans, & rdquo; it had wrecked on a desolate island off the coast of Patagonia. The men, after being marooned for months and facing starvation, built the flimsy craft and sailed for more than a hundred days, traversing nearly 3,000 miles of storm-wracked seas. They were greeted as heroes.But then ... six months later, another, even more decrepit craft landed on the coast of Chile. This boat contained just three castaways, and they told a very different story. The thirty sailors who landed in Brazil were not heroes & ndash; they were mutineers. The first group responded with countercharges of their own, of a tyrannical and murderous senior officer and his henchmen. It became clear that while stranded on the island the crew had fallen into anarchy, with warring factions fighting for dominion over the barren wilderness. As accusations of treachery and murder flew, the Admiralty convened a court martial to determine who was telling the truth. The stakes were life-and-death & mdash;for whomever the court found guilty could hang.The Wager is a grand tale of human behavior at the extremes told by one of our greatest nonfiction writers. Grann & rsquo;s recreation of the hidden world on a British warship rivals the work of Patrick O & rsquo;Brian, his portrayal of the castaways & rsquo; desperate straits stands up to the classics of survival writing such as The Endurance, and his account of the court martial has the savvy of a Scott Turow thriller. As always with Grann & rsquo;s work, the incredible twists of the narrative hold the reader spellbound.

American Desperado: My Life As A Cocaine Cowboy
The true story of super-criminal Jon Roberts, star of the documentary Cocaine Cowboys. American Desperado is Roberts & rsquo; no-holds-barred account of being born into Mafia royalty, witnessing his first murder at the age of seven, becoming a hunter-assassin in Vietnam, returning to New York to become--at age 22--one of the city & rsquo;s leading nightclub impresarios, then journeying to Miami where in a few short years he would rise to become the Medellin Cartel & rsquo;s most effective smuggler. But that & rsquo;s just half the tale. The roster of Roberts & rsquo; friends and acquaintances reads like a Who & rsquo;s Who of the latter half of the 20th century and includes everyone from Jimi Hendrix, Richard Pryor, and O.J. Simpson to Carlo Gambino, Meyer Lansky, and Manuel Noriega. Nothing if not colorful, Roberts surrounded himself with beautiful women, drove his souped-up street car at a top speed of 180 miles per hour, shared his bed with a 200-pound cougar, and employed a 6 & rdquo;6 & rdquo; professional wrestler called & ldquo;The Thing & rdquo; as his bodyguard. Ultimately, Roberts became so powerful that he attracted the attention of the Republican Party & rsquo;s leadership, was wooed by them, and even was co-opted by the CIA for which he carried out its secret agenda. Scrupulously documented and relentlessly propulsive, this collaboration between a bloodhound journalist and one of the most audacious criminals ever is like no other crime book you & rsquo;ve ever read.

And with this growth came a lot of knowledge that I don & rsquo;t think is mine alone to keep. I have gone ahead to share this knowledge with the hope that it will better the lives of the people who come in contact with the book. In this book, I talked about what it means to be raised in the ghetto and how I navigated it; I talked about how my faith carried me through so much and how I came about the faith; I talked about my encounter with abuse, I talked about motherhood and friendship and so much more.

As first lady of the United States of America - the first African American to serve in that role - she helped create the most welcoming and inclusive White House in history while also establishing herself as a powerful advocate for women and girls in the US and around the world, dramatically changing the ways that families pursue healthier and more active lives, and standing with her husband as he led America through some of its most harrowing moments.

With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it - in her own words and on her own terms. Warm, wise, and revelatory, Becoming is the deeply personal reckoning of a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied expectations - and whose story inspires us to do the same.

Surviving Sajomaco - A Nigerian Boarding School Odyssey
Question: What do you do when the kitchen wall collapses into the vat of beans being cooked for a horde of hungry schoolboys? Answer: You serve it up anyway! Why let a few lumps of clay and the odd metal screw spoil a decent meal? When Bunmi Asaolu arrived at the grand gates of St. John/Mary's Unity Secondary School (SAJOMACO) as a first-year student, you'd be forgiven for assuming he was swapping life on the serene university campus he grew up on for another of equal civility. Wrong! Behind the gates of SAJOMACO lay a world of contradictions - unspoken but strict codes of hierarchy juxtaposed with utter chaos. Asaolu presents a wry, satirical and at once serious look at a Nigerian public boarding school in the 1990s through the eyes of a sheltered child navigating its brutal corridors. In Surviving SAJOMACO, Asaolu & rsquo;s experiences and those of his contemporaries are laid bare, giving the listener a raw and at times jarring insight into the incongruencies of school life, whilst subtly tracking the story of Nigeria itself.

Steve Jobs By Walter Isaacson
Walter Isaacson & rsquo;s & ldquo;enthralling & rdquo; (The New Yorker) worldwide bestselling biography of Apple cofounder Steve Jobs.Based on more than forty interviews with Steve Jobs conducted over two years & mdash;as well as interviews with more than 100 family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues & mdash;Walter Isaacson has written a riveting story of the roller-coaster life and searingly intense personality of a creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing.At a time when America is seeking ways to sustain its innovative edge, Jobs stands as the ultimate icon of inventiveness and applied imagination. He knew that the best way to create value in 21st century was to connect creativity with technology. He built a company where leaps of the imagination were combined with remarkable feats of engineering.Although Jobs cooperated with the author, he asked for no control over what was written. He put nothing off-limits. He encouraged the people he knew to speak honestly. And Jobs speaks candidly, sometimes brutally so, about the people he worked with and competed against. His friends, foes, and colleagues provide an unvarnished view of the passions, perfectionism, obsessions, artistry, devilry, and compulsion for control that shaped his approach to business and the innovative products that resulted.Driven by demons, Jobs could drive those around him to fury and despair. But his personality and products were interrelated, just as Apple & rsquo;s hardware and software tended to be, as if part of an integrated system. His tale is instructive and cautionary, filled with lessons about innovation, character, leadership, and values.Steve Jobs is the inspiration for the movie of the same name starring Michael Fassbender, Kate Winslet, Seth Rogen, and Jeff Daniels, directed by Danny Boyle with a screenplay by Aaron Sorkin. About the Author Walter Isaacson, a professor of history at Tulane, has been CEO of the Aspen Institute, chair of CNN, and editor of Time. He is the author of Leonardo da Vinci; The Innovators; Steve Jobs; Einstein: His Life and Universe; Benjamin Franklin: An American Life; and Kissinger: A Biography, and the coauthor of The Wise Men: Six Friends and the World They Made.

Britain A Slave Plantation- A Personal Perspective Of A Nigerian At Oxford And Cambridge
In 1562, Britain became involved in the transatlantic slave trade, and by the 1730s, it was the largest slave-trading nation in the world. It was very profitable to travel the triangle route, which connected Europe to Africa, the Americas, and back to Europe. With Glasgow and Lancaster providing support, ships from Liverpool, London, and Bristol dominated the slave routes, with London serving as the system & rsquo;s financial hub. During the first leg, goods from ships departing from Britain were traded for Africans in slavery along the coast of West Africa. After that, these individuals were shipped across the Atlantic to be bought as slaves and forced to labour on plantations. I came to the United Kingdom to trace the journey of my ancestor, Obua Ajukwu & ndash; whose relics lie in the British Museum & ndash; through the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, as a researcher, and an Academic Visitor. And also, to honour James Currey, who championed the African Writers Series, where my maternal aunt, Flora Nwapa was published, her novel, Efuru becoming the first book by a woman to be published under Heinemann African Writers Series. When I moved to Oxford, my aunt wrote to me: & ldquo;Thank God you are in England as the ball is now in your court to go to the colonial archives to research relevant correspondence and materials what became of Obua Ajukwu (aka Ndanike Orisha or Origbudu)! Writing you from the archives in Barbados where I researched burial and other records. You hypothesized Obua ended up here with Jaja. It turns out Jaja was first taken to Ghana where he stood trial and then came to Barbados via Grenada and St Vincent with one servant. Obua Ajukwu was not a businessman. He was Ndanike (War Minister). Your best bet is to scour through colonial records and it may well be providential that you are in England. & rdquo; The British people are used to enslaving people, but a descendant of Obua Ajukwu, arrived Oxford with his shoulders held high. I paid both universities thousands of pounds for what they call bench fees to hold these positions. Therefore, prying eyes couldn & rsquo;t get off this rich young African. They decided to malign me in Cherwell News, which is partly one of the things you will read here, They tried to scandalize me, door-step me and accuse me wrongly, thinking I am a slave in a plantation.

The Lion House: The Coming Of A King
& ldquo;Christopher de Bellaigue has a magic talent for writing history. It is as if we are there as the era of Suleyman the Magnificent unfolds. & rdquo; & mdash;Orhan Pamuk, winner of the Nobel Prize in LiteratureNarrated through the eyes of the intimates of Suleyman the Magnificent, the sixteenth-century sultan of the Ottoman Empire, The Lion House animates with stunning immediacy the fears and stratagems of those brought into orbit around him: the Greek slave who becomes his Grand Vizier, the Venetian jewel dealer who acts as his go-between, the Russian consort who becomes his most beloved wife.Within a decade and a half, Suleyman held dominion over twenty-five million souls, from Baghdad to the walls of Vienna, and with the help of his brilliant pirate commander, Barbarossa, placed more Christians than ever before or since under Muslim rule. And yet the real drama takes place in close-up: in small rooms and whispered conversations, behind the curtain of power, where the sultan sleeps head-to-toe with his best friend and eats from wooden spoons with his baby boy.In The Lion House, Christopher de Bellaigue tells the story not just of rival superpowers in an existential duel, nor of one of the most consequential lives in human history, but of what it means to live in a time when a few men get to decide the fate of the world.

Abba Kyari Portrait Of A Loyalist: The Good, The Bad And The Ugly Sides Of Public Service
What this book contains is a compilation of the good sides of the former Chief of Staff as espoused by his admirers whom I refer to as The Good; the not so bad accounts by those who felt let down and sidelined in the course of discharge of his duty as the ears and eyes of President Buhari, but tempered their anger with a balance of disappointment and compassion, and whom I have categorized as The Bad; and the very bitter ones amongst us who appear not ready to forgive Abba Kyari even in death and make no bones about their willingness to dance on his grave if they find the opportunity, perhaps owing to deep feelings of hurt arising from the loss of loved ones due to direct and indirect actions of Abba Kyari who they love to hate.

Will
One of the most dynamic and globally recognized entertainment forces of our time opens up fully about his life, in a brave and inspiring book that traces his learning curve to a place where outer success, inner happiness, and human connection are aligned. Along the way, Will tells the story in full of one of the most amazing rides through the worlds of music and film that anyone has ever had.Will Smith & rsquo;s transformation from a West Philadelphia kid to one of the biggest rap stars of his era, and then one of the biggest movie stars in Hollywood history, is an epic tale & mdash;but it & rsquo;s only half the story. Will Smith thought, with good reason, that he had won at life: not only was his own success unparalleled, his whole family was at the pinnacle of the entertainment world. Only they didn't see it that way: they felt more like star performers in his circus, a seven-days-a-week job they hadn't signed up for. It turned out Will Smith's education wasn't nearly over. This memoir is the product of a profound journey of self-knowledge, a reckoning with all that your will can get you and all that it can leave behind. Written with the help of Mark Manson, author of the multi-million-copy bestseller The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, Will is the story of how one person mastered his own emotions, written in a way that can help everyone else do the same. Few of us will know the pressure of performing on the world's biggest stages for the highest of stakes, but we can all understand that the fuel that works for one stage of our journey might have to be changed if we want to make it all the way home. The combination of genuine wisdom of universal value and a life story that is preposterously entertaining, even astonishing, puts Will the book, like its author, in a category by itself.

My Watch Trilogy Bundle By Olusegun Obasanjo

Presented in three volumes, this exquisitely narrated memoir, is intensely personal, broadly nationalistic and international, told by this sojourner of Nigerian and world history, Olusegun Mathew Okikiola Aremu Obasanjo.
