12,000.00

He was sickly as an infant.

Growing up, he was so fragile that his grandmother kept him away from any kind of domestic chore – even the ones performed by the females

But Murtala Osuolale Salami had a fecund mind which was how his curiosity about the letter “Z”-not in his native Yoruba language -made him choose the Nigerian Military School, Zaria as the secondary school to attend.

From a boy soldier, he rose, many years later, to a distinguished Air Force officer.

This book captures in felicitous English language his journey from infancy through his exploits in the military till his forced retirement, to life as a civilian. to his struggles for the development of his beloved home town, Erin-Ile, in Nigeria’s Kwara State, neighbourhood association politics and his love and care for his family, immediate and extended.

It is an autobiography with a refreshing difference.
