MY DIVINE DIRECTION
My Divine Direction tells the incredible story of a young man’s journey, by land, from Nigeria to Europe. Born in Lagos, Ese Oduko was sent to Kirikiri prison when he was 16 for a crime his brother committed. In a crowded cell with 48 other men, he promised himself that if he ever got out, he would find his way to Europe and make a living from his talent – playing football. As soon as he was released, Ese started his journey. Still just a child, he navigated the unrelenting danger and precarity of life as an illegal immigrant on the move. He traveled through Benin, Togo, Burkina Faso, Niger, Ghana, and Mali, sleeping rough, finding work in restaurants and barbershops, but continuing to play and practice football wherever he went. Through his faith in God, his determination, and the life-changing kindness of the people he met along the way, Ese made it to Europe. He played for clubs in France, Malta, and Italy before moving into management and coaching in the UK. After becoming a pastor in 2008, Ese felt God calling him to return to Nigeria to do His work. He established a football academy there to help underprivileged and homeless children and is about to launch a new youth project in collaboration with the Nigerian government.

Sixty Percent of a true story
‘Sixty Percent of a True Story’ is a window into the different realities of three undergraduates. Osisiye arrives the University of Lagos on a windy morning with dreams of high grades but must explore the fleshpots of the city, freedom of the campus and spiritual diversity of the bustling city of Lagos, Nigeria. Will he find a balance soon enough and will his dalliances with drugs, women and new friends be his undoing? The story moves on to Korede, a depressive introvert. He takes one through the vagaries of growing up as ‘different’ in a society that sees things in black and white and does not forgive men who do not act as men. Chris is a staple in Nigeria’s urban lore, the internet fraudster. Through his eyes, we understand the various motivations for this career choice and explore the process that births such deception. The story weaves through three Nigerian states, a university, a presidential campaign, the fleshpots of Lagos and startling personal choices to an unpredictable end.

The Holocaust: A New History
Two fundamental questions about the Holocaust must be answered:
How did it happen? And why?
There is no shortage of books on the Holocaust but Rees’s stands out as a readable and authoritative exposition of how and why it happened, and the barbarous methods by which it was pursued. The amount of ground it covers in 500 pages is remarkable – from the anti-Semitism of popular German literature of the 19th century to Hitler’s suicide and the surrender of his regime. It’s excellently written and skilfully interweaves narrative history, sound interpretation and the recollections (through interviews, listed in the notes as “previously unpublished testimony”) of survivors. Rees provides an exemplary account of how the greatest crime in modern history came about

An Ugly Truth: Inside Facebook’s Battle for Domination (Language Acts and Worldmaking)
Once one of Silicon Valley’s greatest success stories, for the past five years, Facebook has been under constant fire, roiled by controversies and crises. It turns out that while the tech giant was connecting the world, they were also mishandling users’ data, allowing the spread of fake news, and the amplification of dangerous, polarising hate speech.
Critics framed the narrative as the irreconcilable conflict between the platform’s lofty mission to advance society by bringing people together while also profiting off of them. The company, many said, had simply lost its way. But the truth is far more complex.
