The Dialogue: The Vulnerable and The Desperate
₦15,000.00In Abuja, a nameless boy survives in the shell of a broken bus — abandoned by his mother, forgotten by his continent. His plight collides with a desperate man’s curse, exposing a world where the vulnerable are left to rot.
He finds a name; he finds a home — but what does the future hold for a society that abandons its children, yet proclaims that children are the future?“The Dialogue: The Vulnerable and The Desperate is a song of anguish, desperation and desolation, sung by an abandoned street urchin, crying every day and night, so dreary, for attention, with a sad and wistful eye. His cries of abandonment fall on the uncaring ears of a wicked world.
Written in a simple but powerful dialogue with a fresh technique in playwriting, the playwright dazes the reader with images that shock and arrest attention. The play is recommended for tertiary institution students as a powerful tool for adjustment and change in attitude towards the abandoned children in Africa.”

Africa: Vengeance of the Abandoned
₦15,000.00 – ₦20,000.00Price range: ₦15,000.00 through ₦20,000.00Across Africa, a storm is gathering. The abandoned youth—excluded from governance, profiled as threats rather than partners—are striking back through insurgencies, kidnappings, protests, and migration. But why has a generation once full of talent and promise turned so desperate?
Africa: Vengeance of the Abandoned traces this crisis to the continent’s rupture with its indigenous leadership traditions. Before colonisation, societies anchored youth in responsibility and service through age grades, initiation, and communal structures. Philosophies like Ubuntu in the South, Ibu Anyi Danda in the West, and Ujamaa in the East fostered inclusion and collective strength. Their dismantling left a vacuum still unfilled today.
Both a lament and a call to action, this book draws on African folklore, proverbs, and parables to argue for a Pan-African renewal. By returning to ancestral wisdom—restoring dialogue, inclusion, and indigenous problem-solving—we may yet calm the storm and reclaim the abandoned.
The question remains: will Africa act in time, or will the storm prevail? -

Songs of Ogadi
₦10,000.00Hear now the voice of Ogadi, child of shadow and light, whose feet have walked the alleys of sorrow and the plains of silence. Ogadi speaks for the unborn, the forsaken, the children whose cries were never carried to the heavens. In twenty-five songs, the lament of the abandoned rises, trembles, and turns into a heartbeat that will not be silenced.
From the whispers of those lost before life, to the footsteps of the orphan, the voiceless, the stolen—each verse carries the weight of grief, yet hums with the pulse of endurance. These are songs of sorrow, yes, but also of fire: the fire of survival, the fire of spirit, the fire that will dance through the darkness and summon hope.
In the final dance, “Ogadi’s Last Dance”, despair lifts its veil, and resilience reigns. The child who knew only neglect rises, dancing a rhythm that calls the continent to remember, to witness, to honor, and to nurture. These poems are a drumbeat of ancestry, a chant of the eternal, a summons to hearts willing to answer the call of the future.
Songs of Ogadi is a sacred offering: a voice of the unheard, a song of the resilient, a bridge between the spirits of yesterday and the leaders of tomorrow. Those who read, who listen, who feel, are bound by the invisible cords of memory, hope, and Africa itself.“His poetry, like his personality, is at once firm and gentle, able to confront hard truths without losing focus and compassion.”– Orji Ogbonnaya Orji
