The Race For Capital

Nigerian/African

₦3,500.00 ₦3,500.00

THE RACE FOR CAPITAL (And Other out-of-the-box Economic Arguments), is my third book and an aggregation of some my most important economic and financial thoughts in recent times, as distilled from my weekly column and elsewhere. The book’s title derives from the biggest economic argument of the day – the problem of inequality – which has finally been noticed by important economists around the world but to which no solution has yet been found. In this book, that argument is further advanced and an African perspective is added, because when ever important economic arguments such as this goes on, that most-vulnerable continent does not feature in the analysis. But the perspective of this book is not all about complaining about the state of Africa and its position development-wise, but also on solutions. Some germane solutions are hereby offered for African economies especially but every other economy around the world which seeks to reposition its people and make a dent in these hard-to-solve quagmires facing the world today. There are no simple solutions apparently.

Crushed

Nigerian/African

₦3,500.00 ₦3,500.00

CRUSH-ED is not another whining story about the African experience, even though the title may lead in that direction. The title is really an acronym for the strategies that Africa (the sub-Saharan region in Particular), must adopt if it is not to face extinction in the medium to long term. The book presents pungent and urgent, analysis of the precarious situation that region of Africa has found itself; a situation foisted not only by the historical facts of slave trade and colonialism (as most texts on the subject are wont to aver), but most importantly the failure of the African states themselves to properly interpret their cultures and how those clash with the ones they are try to adopt and adapt to.

Abba Kyari – Portrait Of A Loyalist

Nigerian/African

₦4,000.00 ₦4,000.00

ByMagnus Onyibe

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.

Nigeria’s Story Is My Story

Nigerian/African

₦3,500.00 ₦3,500.00

This is my sixth book and one in which I’ve been a bit more revealing. It should make very interesting reading because it is not a boring rant about economic and financial issues, but interesting dialogues on matters of mostly Nigeria’s sociopsychology and aspects of history. I personally enjoy such discourses better than the drone on the stiff subject of money and how it is made.

I think this is a more important aspect of the development quest of African people because from a systems point of view we should interrogate our lifeviews, our paradigms and of perspectives. Once the sociopsychological aspects are dealt with, development and progress becomes fairly easy and sustainable. The writings here reflect my mindset and perspective which fuses into my understanding of the larger issues towards ensuring that my people attain a better existence in this present world where no nation waits for another.

Things To Do Before Your Career Disappears

Nigerian/African

₦3,500.00 ₦3,500.00

This book is a clarion call, an urgent alarm. It purviews beyond the problem of global unemployment, but speaks to economic and social decisions being made by individuals, households, companies and governments. The author seeks to find an intricate balance in between all of these. At least, if a balance was not achievable, he seeks to add his voice as one of those who pulled back the world from extremism. This time, the focus is on economic extremism.

Thought Of A Village Boy

Nigerian/African

₦3,500.00 ₦3,500.00

ByOluwadele L. Boluwatife

Oluwadele, in my opinion, has succeeded in bringing together an assembly of his writings over the years. The book – Thoughts of a Village Boy, represents a compendium of different areas of human endeavor and expression of author’s views on different issues in our national life.

The book is very rich in events and ideas from which people of all ages can learn. He is a very knowledgeable and highly talented writer. He has succeeded in prompting whoever reads this book to think deeply on how our country can be better governed and the role elites should as a matter of priority assume from now on. His take on his perception of Tinubu’s Philosophy of Poverty Management is worth considering. I believe the message is for our politicians and those aspiring office holders.

Britney Spears – the princess of pop – is making a comeback, and there isn’t a person out there who hasn’t heard about it. In this fully up-to-date and authoritative biography, Steve Dennis reveals all there is to know about the much-loved star.

Hitting our radios for the first time in 1998 with ‘…Baby One More Time’, Britney Spears quickly became a pop idol. Now, at just 27 years of age, she has racked up five number one albums, seven top-ten singles and seven sell-out world tours, as well having performed on stage with both Madonna and Michael Jackson. Just a decade after breaking onto to scene, she has become nothing short of a pop legend.

Her private life, however, has not been so easy. In 2004 Britney famously married a childhood friend at The Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas; since then her personal life has seemingly been thrown into turmoil. In the last five years she has had numerous failed relationships and endured a very public divorce and custody battle – all in the full glare of the international media.

Drawing on exclusive interviews with those closest to the superstar, Britney: Inside the Dream is a engrossing portrait of fascinating star. A frank biography, with no detail spared, it reveals the real Britney Spears, like you’ve never known her before.
