Book Description
The African Lion, Dr Chika Onyeani, is back and roaring. The author of the phenomenally successful Capitalist Nigger offers a new collection of his speeches, articles and other writings over the last fifteen years. In Roar of the African Lion, Dr Onyeani's unblinking gaze and plain speaking are directed at many of the burning issues of the day. He outlines his revolutionary Spider Web Doctrine—aimed at financial self-reliance and the upliftment of black communities—and attacks the parasitic leaders whose greed has robbed the people of Africa of opportunities for advancement and development since their liberation. He is equally scornful of the failures of the African elite to influence the direction of their countries, and has trenchant comments to make about racism, xenophobia and hypocrisy in Africa, America and elsewhere. Dr Onyeani also tackles the persistence of slavery on the continent, the West's ambivalent attitude to aid and debt relief, rampant corruption and 'whiteness' of Barack Obama. Looking to the future, he cautions Africa to be wary of China's embrace and to pursue its own solutions to African problems.

Book Description
Capitalist Nigger is an explosive and jarring indictment of the black race. The book asserts that the Negroid race, as naturally endowed as any other, is culpably a non-productive race, a consumer race that depends on other communities for its culture, its language, its feeding and its clothing. Despite enormous natural resources, blacks are economic slaves because they lack the 'devil-may-care' attitude and the 'killer instinct' of the Caucasian, as well as the spider web mentality of the Asian. A Capitalist Nigger must embody ruthlessness in pursuit of excellence in his drive towards achieving the goal of becoming an economic warrior. In putting forward the idea of the Capitalist Nigger, Chika Onyeani charts a road to success whereby black economic warriors employ the 'Spider Web Doctrine' – discipline, self-reliance, ruthlessness – to escape from their victim mentality. Born in Nigeria, Chika Onyeani is a journalist, editor and former diplomat.

Book Description
What if your life did not go the way you intended? What if you were bullied at school, diagnosed with M.E. during your final exams, missed out on university, had your heart broken and on top of all of that, broke your back in a riding accident? What would you do differently?Jo did something different.The Lion's Roar is a moving memoir in which a dream is fulfilled and personal traumas are overcome. Raised in the English middle classes, she finds that her life changes dramatically when she falls in love with both an African wildlife film-maker and the African bush itself. He introduces her to Botswana's Okavango Delta where their existence is basic, natural and earthy. Together, they are alone in the wilds where she views Africa's fabulous animals at close quarters and is taken aback at the overwhelming beauty of the sunsets. Now coming to the end of her trip to Africa, she sees that her years of struggles have left their mark on her but through the spiritual and physical freedom of the African bush she experiences herself being awakened. She feels that she has finally come home.Months later, having returned to England, their relationship inexplicably comes to an end and she feels utter devastation and mourns the future which she and her lover would have had together. Without an explanation from him as to their failure, the loss is even harder to bear. Some time later, the opportunity arises to transfer to Dubai through her company. At the age of 30, she embarks on a much needed fresh start. Emotionally, she reaches dark depths where her self-esteem plummets and she is overwhelmed by loneliness as she cannot understand why the one thing that she thinks will make her happy, marriage, seems to be eluding her. Amidst this despair, her life takes an unusual turn when she breaks her back in an horrendous riding accident, avoiding paralysis by millimetres. All control of her life is totally removed in those moments she thuds to the ground and, during her grueling 8 month rehabilitation, she is faced with the basics of relearning to walk. As her recovery progresses, she sees another side of herself and she loves who she discovers. On returning to work and the old strains resurfacing, she realises that this is no longer the right environment for her. The only thing she knows for sure is the strong pull to return to the African bush. Zambia is her place of choice where she joins a research project in Kafue National Park and over her months there, she recognises that the bush is indeed the one place where she truly belongs and, in time, she finds a one year Field Guide and Lodge Management training course in South Africa. At the age of 34, she is comfortable with being single, recognising that that environment will not be conducive to meeting someone but believing that by following her passion for the African bush, she will indeed know fulfilment, albeit in a different way. Unexpectedly, whilst training to be a safari guide, she meets and falls in love with a fellow Englishman. In the bush, she finds inner peace and a sense of belonging. In her new husband, she finds her true equal. She is living her dream by being in the bush. Her husband is the icing on her cake. Their lives will forever be in Africa.That lady is me.

Book Description
THE HABITAT Nairobi National Park lies to the south-southeast of the capital of Kenya, Nairobi, where the Athi Plains meet the Eastern escarpment of the Rift Valley. These plains form part of the semi-arid highland plateau lying between the coast and the Rift Valley. Both the city itself, and the Park bordering it, are a meeting place of two generally distinct types of landscape and climate. While to the east-southeast are semi-arid plains with grasslands and scattered trees, the western-north western parts are higher, hilly, cooler, more humid and support lush forests. The combination of latitude-a little over one degree south of the Equator -and altitude-average of 1600 m. (5000-5500 ft.) -combine to give Nairobi a most equable climate where the temperature varies during the year between about 11 degrees and 27 degrees centigrade (mean minimum and mean maximum for eight years). However, considerable changes are usually experienced within each day and a rise from 14 degrees C at 0600 hours to 22 degrees at 1100 hours is not unusual. Nairobi Park has a unique concentration of wild animals living in their natural habitat less than 10 km. from the centre of a modern city of half a million people. The only interference with the natural course of events in the Park is that normally required for the proper management of a game park, such as maintenance of roads and dams, and, in this particular case, partial fencing towards the city.
