Download or read book Education in Africa written by A. Babs Fafunwa and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, Education in Africa offers a comprehensive treatment of the development of education in Africa. Until now only scattered documents on educational growth in individual countries have been available; works devoted to Africa as a whole have tended towards the general and have, by and large, been written by outside observers. This book is a collection of illuminating syntheses of major trends in educational development in Africa, by renowned African educationists, and is the first attempt to supply the need for a comprehensive book on African education written from an African viewpoint. All but one of the chapters were written specially for the book by leading African educators each of whom has had a distinguished career and wide experience in education in his or her own country; they represent eleven nations in all. The volume is designed for African students, teachers and administrators and will also be welcomed by educational planners and by scholars working in the fields of comparative education and the history of education. It will be of special interest to departments, institutions and faculties of education in all the universities and colleges of education in Africa, and to educators and students worldwide who are concerned with comparative African education.

Download or read book You Must Set Forth at Dawn written by Wole Soyinka and published by Random House. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first African to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, as well as a political activist of prodigious energies, Wole Soyinka now follows his modern classic Ake: The Years of Childhood with an equally important chronicle of his turbulent life as an adult in (and in exile from) his beloved, beleaguered homeland. In the tough, humane, and lyrical language that has typified his plays and novels, Soyinka captures the indomitable spirit of Nigeria itself by bringing to life the friends and family who bolstered and inspired him, and by describing the pioneering theater works that defied censure and tradition. Soyinka not only recounts his exile and the terrible reign of General Sani Abacha, but shares vivid memories and playful anecdotes–including his improbable friendship with a prominent Nigerian businessman and the time he smuggled a frozen wildcat into America so that his students could experience a proper Nigerian barbecue. More than a major figure in the world of literature, Wole Soyinka is a courageous voice for human rights, democracy, and freedom. You Must Set Forth at Dawn is an intimate chronicle of his thrilling public life, a meditation on justice and tyranny, and a mesmerizing testament to a ravaged yet hopeful land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the following chapters of this book, it is my goal to explain to the reader how my history and lineage has directly impacted my goals and success in life. It is through the rich background of my ancestors that I was given the many gifts and blessings that have enabled me to make my mark on the world. Through the migration by my ancestors from Egypt to the plains of the Niger and Benue Rivers, and the subsequent establishment of Uhe land and later Esan land, I was born with a passion and love for my country of Nigeria, Esan nation and my hometown of Uromi. The innate qualities of economics, religion and politics have been instilled in me by my heritage and have led me to a life of public service, dedication to my country, to my family and most importantly, to God. As an architect, I have dedicated my life to the betterment of my beloved country. As a public official, I have served many administrations in the advancement of Nigeria’s infrastructure and economy, as well as the improvement of regional infrastructure and economy in the West African region, under the aegis of Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). My rich heritage was the foundation that has led me down this path which I hope will carry on to future generations.
Download or read book There Was a Country written by Chinua Achebe and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-10-11 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the legendary author of Things Fall Apart—a long-awaited memoir of coming of age in a fragile new nation, and its destruction in a tragic civil war For more than forty years, Chinua Achebe maintained a considered silence on the events of the Nigerian civil war, also known as the Biafran War, of 1967–1970, addressing them only obliquely through his poetry. Decades in the making, There Was a Country is a towering account of one of modern Africa’s most disastrous events, from a writer whose words and courage left an enduring stamp on world literature. A marriage of history and memoir, vivid firsthand observation and decades of research and reflection, There Was a Country is a work whose wisdom and compassion remind us of Chinua Achebe’s place as one of the great literary and moral voices of our age.
