Live and Work in Canada: The Practical Guide

In June 2004, Pelu Awofeso travelled to Sokoto State to cover the bicentennial anniversary of the famed Sokoto Caliphate. Sensing more historical narratives further afield, Awofeso hit the road to Kebbi State, reaching all the way to the Gwandu Emirate; there, he met chiefs, descendants and clerics who told him more about the 200-year-old legacies of Shehu Uthman dan Fodio, mastermind of the Islamic Jihad that gave birth to the vast Sokoto caliphate. This eBook is a record of that journey.

A journey of a thousand miles they say begins with one step.
The Young African Leader’s Initiative (YALI) Emerging Leaders Training was that first step for me. I had envisioned a fun-filled vacation in the heart of Accra packed with fun trips and a lot of good food.
Instead over the space of 3 weeks, I shared the same space with over 130 of the brightest and most innovative youth change-makers Africa has to offer, being educated on some of the continent’s most problematic issues and engaging in thought-provoking conversations on how to solve them and create a better outlook for the African dream.
My experience I can say was a paradigm shift and has invoked in me a fresh sense of optimism towards making our dear continent, a land of so much resources and potential fulfill that which has been spoken of her from time immemorial, finally living up to her identity as the land of riches and wealth for her people.
Welcome to my world, a world of wonder, a world full of grace!

The Victory of Grace

In 2014, while still a PhD student, Awofeso travelled to Niger State for research data collection. The period coincided with celebrations marking Nigeria centenary. While in Bida, she learnt that Zungeru was called 'The Amalgamation City'. This piqued her interest and the researcher in her wanted to uncover more about the historic town, situated in the Wushishi LGA. This volume is about that journey.

Badagry (a town on the Western tip of Lagos) is busy year round with visitors, Nigerians and non-Nigerians. Nowhere else in the country matches the visitor numbers -- daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. The visitors are not pulled by an one-off event, annual festival or grand carnival; they flock the scenic, coconut-rich town for its own appeal. If you have never been to Badagry, this publication will give you an idea of the the must-see attractions -- and those off the beaten path. If you have, we trust you’ll enjoy reliving your experiences as you flip through the pages.

"Yipee, I'm finally going back home."
Many people have shouted these idealistic words as they boarded the plane returning to their motherland. Then they arrive, the imported one, and have to take a reality check. An experience akin to being punched by boxing gloves, worn by Azumah Nelson. Several times.
Immediately, they wail, "Why the hell did I come back?" 
Nothing is what they expected it would be, leading to much whinging and frustration.
For those who insist on staying, this is the survivor's guide to Ghana, the gateway to West Africa.
However long it take you to adjust and no matter how many tears you shed, once you've sussed out the Ghanaian cultural scripts and laughed yourself silly at how wet behind the ears you had been, you'll wonder what all your fussing had been about. You won’t!
Welcome to A Place of Beautiful Nonsense, where every challenging situations also offers a silver lining. 

A Place of Beautiful Nonsense

A Stranger's Pose is an evocative and mesmerising account of travels across different African cities. With lyrical and absorbing prose, Emmanuel invites the reader to share in his travels, and the encounters he made along the way. Alongside these depictions of new places and people is a compelling, and very personal, meditation on the meaning of home, and the importance of intimacy to a lone traveller. Through these vignettes – an arrest in a market in N'djamena, meeting the famed photographer Malick Sidibe in Bamako, speaking with a migrant in Tangier who says “the sea is the only way,” – Emmanuel showcases the generosity of strangers, the power of language and translation, and much more, accentuated by a curated selection of captivating photographs.

A Stranger's Pose

In December 1965, in a smoke-filled hotel room in Morocco, South African journalist Terry Bell accepted a challenge: to paddle a kayak from London to Tangier. At the time, Terry and his wife Barbara were living as political exiles in London. By August 1967, they agreed it was time to get back to Africa. But they decided to up the ante. Their plan: paddle 11 000 kilometres from England to Dar es Salaam in a 5-metre glass fibre kayak.
