Meet Ifeoma. She's been ready to leave her violent husband for some time, but her plans for a quiet departure take an unexpectedly gruesome turn...

Nkechi, a housemaid for a rich Lagos family, bears the weight of her Madam's wrath when she discovers her husband's dark secret.

In London, Riliwa meets&nbsp;Mary,&nbsp;a guardian angel full of advice, wisdom and practical support as she navigates her unfamiliar new home. But it soon becomes clear that Mary's kindness comes at a price.

Passionate, raw, full of heart and humour, these are stories about women who will not be broken by the challenges life puts in their way.

'Wow!&nbsp;I thought this collection was&nbsp;breathtaking. It packs such an emotional punch.' Jessica George, author of Maame

Shortlisted for the Jhalak Prize 2026

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2026 in the subject Business economics - Industrial Management, University of Nigeria (Sa'adu Zungur University, Bauchi), course: Business Administration, language: English, abstract: This study examined the effect of workplace safety management on employee performance at NASCO Food Nigeria Limited, focusing on four dimensions: safety promotion, safety policies, risk management, and safety assurance. A descriptive, cross-sectional survey design was used, with data collected from 109 employees (72.7% response rate from 150 questionnaires distributed, determined via the Yamane, 1967 formula) using a structured, close-ended, five-point Likert questionnaire. Data were analysed descriptively - frequencies, percentages, weighted means, and standard deviations - since the raw respondent-level dataset needed for Pearson correlation or multiple regression (as specified in the methodology) was not available; hypothesis decisions are therefore reported as majority-agreement associations rather than statistically tested effects. All four construct-level means exceeded the 3.00 scale midpoint (safety promotion 3.65; safety policy 3.67; risk management 3.70; safety assurance 3.72). 69.8% of respondents associated safety promotion with improved performance; 70.1% associated clearly communicated, consistently enforced safety policies with higher productivity and morale; 70.7% associated risk-management practices with reduced accidents and stress, though employee involvement in risk control scored lowest and most divided of all 20 items; and 71.5% associated visible safety assurance with higher job satisfaction and lower absenteeism. The study concludes that safety management functions as a strategic driver of employee performance rather than a mere compliance exercise, and recommends that NASCO Food Nigeria Limited sustain varied safety promotion, standardise policy enforcement across departments, expand participatory risk management, and maintain visible management commitment to safety assurance.

Effect of Safety Management on Employees' Performance in NASCO Food Nigeria Limited

Dieses einzigartige Buch dürfte für alle von Interesse sein, die sich für Afrika oder Anarchismus interessieren. Die Autoren Sam Mbah und I.E. Igariwey wenden sich mit diesem Buch Afrika zu und untersuchen ausführlich die 'anarchistischen Elemente' in vielen traditionellen (vorkolonialen) afrikanischen Gesellschaften. Sie beleuchten die verheerenden Auswirkungen des Kolonialismus auf die traditionellen Gesellschaften Afrikas und auf die wirtschaftlichen und politischen Strukturen des Kontinents sowie die schrecklichen Probleme, die der Kolonialismus hinterlassen hat. Nachdem sie die gescheiterten Versuche sozialen Veränderungen durch 'afrikanisch-sozialistische ' Regierungen in der postkolonialen Zeit untersucht haben, halten sie fest, dass es einen Ausweg für Afrika gibt - einen anarchistischen Umbau seiner wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Strukturen.

'Die Relevanz des Anarchismus für die menschliche Gesellschaft war nirgendwo so offensichtlich wie in Afrika. Angesichts der Vielzahl von Problemen, mit denen die Völker Afrikas konfrontiert sind, der erschöpfenden sozioökonomischen Bedingungen, unter denen die große Mehrheit von ihnen lebt, und der insgesamt wirtschaftlich benachteiligten Lage Afrikas im Vergleich zu anderen Kontinenten, ist der Anarchismus wirklich das einzige befreiende Konzept, das in der Lage ist, ¿den dunklen Kontinent¿ in eine wirklich zukunftsorientierte Richtung zu lenken.'

'Siollun's books are gripping'&nbsp;Financial Times

'An essential book you'll want to re-read many times - there is no more eloquent and informed guide than Max Siollun'&nbsp;Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland

'Incredibly necessary, magnificently done'&nbsp;Remi Adekoya, author of&nbsp;It's Not About Whiteness, It's About Wealth

'Max Siollun has succeeded at making Nigeria's&nbsp;pre-colonial history accessible without flattening the tremendous diversity of its many peoples'&nbsp;Alex Thurston, University of Cincinnati

'An unforgettable read'&nbsp;Matthew T. Page, former US State Department&nbsp;Nigeria expert

'Max Siollun brings history to life with a cinematic sweep and intellectual confidence'&nbsp;Gimba Kakanda, Co-Lead at the Presidential Initiative for Innovation, Policy Evaluation and Research

Much is known about what Europeans did in Africa, yet very little is known about Africa's history before its colonisation.&nbsp;

In this surprising exploration, Max Siollun uncovers societies that were not part of a backward 'Dark Continent', but which instead had rich lore to rival the ancient Greeks and Romans.

Pre-colonial West Africa had a mesmerising cast of revolutionaries, intellectuals, innovators, and villainous assassins. These include the family that overthrew three different 1000-year-old empires, the royal court official who engineered the death of four kings, and the young enslaved boy who became the first Black bishop in history, befriending Queen Victoria along the way.

This story of a dynamic and artistic people is a vital read for those who want to discover a forgotten era of West African history.

Max Siollun is a historian and author. He has written four acclaimed books on Nigeria's history, most recently What Britain Did to Nigeria: A Short History of Conquest and Rule, which was shortlisted in BBC History Magazine's 2021 Books of the Year. He has written for the New York Times, Guardian, Independent and Foreign Policy.

ALSO AVAILABLE TO PREORDER NOW: MICHAEL PALIN IN THE PHILIPPINES - COMING OCTOBER 2026.---------The extraordinary book from the bestselling author, a richly illustrated travel adventure across the African nation.Illustrated throughout with colour photographs taken on the trip, and brimming with wry humour and fascinating insights, this is a vivid and varied portrait of a complex country.--------- With his eightieth birthday looming, it crossed Michael Palin's mind that now might be the time to hang up his boots, to lounge about at home, to take things easy. Then the opportunity to visit Africa's most populous nation arose. A few weeks later, he was at Lagos airport, camera crew in town.In the journal he kept during his trip he gives a vivid account of the towns and cities he visited, the landscapes he travelled through, and the people he met: from vibrant but chaotic Lagos, to seemingly deserted streets of Nigeria's hyper-modern capital, Abuja, to the polluted oil fields of the Niger Delta. Michael Palin is welcomed as an honoured guest by a powerful emir and harangued by a passerby in Benin City. He hears the testimony of a kidnap victim of the terrorist group Boko Haram and experiences the collective spiritual ecstasy of one of Nigeria's mega churches.And throughout his trip, he experiences at first hand the contradictions of a country that has so much natural wealth and human talent and yet simultaneously grapples with corruption, religious strife and deep inequality._______Praise for Michael Palin:'I cannot remember the last time I read a book so immediately absorbing and affecting.' Bill Bryson, bestselling author of A Short History of Nearly Everything'Stirring' Daily Telegraph'Everybody's talking about it . . . A brilliant book.' Chris Evans, BBC Radio 2'Tremendous' Guardian'I absolutely loved it: I had to read it at one sitting.'

Visuelle Reise durch Westafrika und Amerika Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts
Im Dialog zwischen Schwarz-Weiß- und Farbfotografien offenbart Richard Hay Jr. die stille Poesie des Alltags in Westafrika und Nordamerika. Anstatt Erzählungen von Armut, Konflikt oder Exotismus zu bedienen, nähert sich Hay seinen Motiven mit einem ausgeprägt künstlerischen Blick und gestaltet auf lyrische Weise gemeinsame menschliche Erfahrungen, die mit lokaler und globaler materieller Kultur verflochten sind. Mitunter kontextuell mehrdeutig laden die Fotografien dazu ein, über Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten von Kulturen nachzudenken, die durch Ozeane getrennt und Jahrzehnte voneinander entfernt sind. Eingerahmt von einem Essay des bekannten nigerianischen Autors Emmanuel Iduma zeigen Hays Bilder Resonanzen, die bis heute nachhallen und zeitliche Grenzen überwinden.
