A rabid believer in shomolu as a symbol of today’s Nigeria. Edgar is widely known as the duke of shomolu. He continues to push the boundaries of common sense with his often acerbic but witty column.
This is my fifth book. It’s a collection of some of my best economic ideas over time. It is focused on Nigeria to a large extent and encompasses my thoughts for our country and people. This book is named REVOLUTION OF IDEAS because the ideas herein are indeed out-of-the-box and revolutionary. I believe that the ideas that will transit Nigeria people of color out of the current state of pity, lie in the mind. I have put my perspective together here. I assure that you’ll find it indeed interesting. Let’s get going
eke is a troubled young man living in the suburbs of cape town. He develops strange habits of stalking people, stealing small objects and going from doctor to doctor in search of companionship rather than cure.
CHANGE IS GOING TO COME is a compendium of engaging essays and ideas for developing countries to rethink their state and get out of economic morass. It is not a political book but a book of interrogation on questions such as: What does change really mean? It contains common-sensical but overlooked solutions to problems such as the proper use of resources, thinking right socially and politically, and being realistic in an unrealistic environment. Put together by one of the Nigeria’s finest rising economic analysts, it is a simple book written in a conversational manner that will help to get people thinking right – if they listen.
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.

Crowther opened numerous missions up the Niger and Benue rivers, from bonny to Lokoja to kippo hill, earning the trust and friendship of the local kings, he translated the bible fully into Yoruba and partially into Igbo and Igalla. Unfortunately, however, the last two years of his long and eventual life were to be marred by controversy and bitterness. Some priests sent down by the CMS from England on a visitation on the Niger Mission returned very negative and destructive reports. As a result, the Bishop already over 80 years old, suffered a stroke from which he never really recovered. He died in the closing hours of December 31,1891. This play is about those last, painful years
