A MUST GET 'BOOK' - 'I FOUND MY VOICE'

I am loosened from my restraints of a Saturday morning and compelled to encourage you to consider buying my book 'I found my voice'.  This is no ordinary book and every reader that has encountered it considers it the height of literary achievement.  It is a rare gem awaiting discovery of the world, you can for so little effort make this outstanding work go viral...

It details encounters with Nigerian rulers, coup plotters and much more...Here are a couple of reviews…

Great read !!!!!

- Jeff Plackett

It took me all morning and into the night but I read it in one day! That's because I couldn't put the book down, I had to know what Olu got up to next! Olu's story, wow! I could almost smell the place, feel it, imagine it!

-Rachel Thompson


I have read Dr. Olu Ojedokun's latest book titled I Found my Voice and I must say that it offers a gripping account of a young boy's rise from the depth of despair to a level of self assuredness. Dr. Ojedokun's writing though seductively easy to understand, transports as it were the reader to the scene of events so vividly and graphically described. His recollection of events from childhood through adolescence and now adulthood is undeniably sharp and mind blowing!

Beyond story telling, however, I Found my Voice offers hope for anyone going through depressing moments. In fact, a common thread throughout the writer's account is the ability to rise above circumstances and challenges through a combination of determination, hard work, fortuitous circumstances, and above all the unseen hand of God who guided him and his family through.

To be sure, this is a manual for daily living. The book offers hope for the despondent, guidance for the confused, and faith in an omnipotent God. A must read!

I am privileged to have known the author of this book, and to be part of some of the narrative. Olu is an exceptionally talented writer and story teller, with a remarkable memory, and "I found my voice" is a powerful and brilliantly written book, that will inspire you, and keep you on the edge of your seat, making you anticipate what would happen next!

In "I Found My Voice", Olu ingeniously captures his personal difficulties growing up both in England and in Nigeria, and how he overcame adversity to become the man he is today. He also speaks to the Nigerian elite, contributing powerfully to the debate of what to do with the conundrum that is present-day Nigeria.

Every reader (including non Nigerians) will have the sense of being taken on a personal journey. At each step, the writer's disarming graciousness and charm makes the journey a pleasurable experience! This is a must read!!
