It always seems impossible until it is done — Nelson Mandela

First and foremost, I am grateful to God for the blessing of mental strength, without it this project would not be in existence.

I am thankful and loyal to Prof. Mrs. Ekpo Nta, Mr. Onyekachi Peter Onuoha, Raymond John Isong, Prince Anthony and others who contributed in different ways to get me to this point.

To all the friends online, I am thankful for the motivation and appreciation. I never thought I could do it until you pushed me.

The idea of writing a book was birthed some time in May 2020 during the COVID-19 lockdown. I started off with writing 500 words per day, but the work became tough because it was the lengthiest of all the pieces I have ever written. It was completed in August that same year. I spent the remaining months of 2020 and the whole of 2021 making sure the book comes typo-free and top-of-the-line. We are finally done!
