Book Description
A masterclass in becoming a wealth-generating entrepreneur! Do you have what it takes to become a billionaire? Written by the founder of Forbes Africa, this is a masterclass on how the brightest and most successful entrepreneurs across Africa made their fortunes, as well as a timely look at how the work of entrepreneurs can influence lives in Africa and create the jobs that empty state coffers can no longer afford. Chris Bishop gets up close and personal with the biggest names in business on the continent: Aliko Dangote, Patrice Motsepe, Nicky Oppenheimer, Christo Wiese, Wendy Appelbaum and Stephen Saad, among others. These are the stories of how they not only survived, but thrived, in the fast and furious world of African business: Narendra Raval, the penniless priest who became a steel baron; Tim Tebeila, the barefoot apple-seller who turned into a mining millionaire; Herman Mashaba, the ‘knocksman’ who went from running dice games and dealing drugs to running a city; Pascal Dozie, the economics student who studied with Mick Jagger ... This is a rich tapestry of stories about the super-wealthy and the qualities that make them so spectacularly successful, in arguably the most challenging economic arena in the world.

Book Description
IN SUMMER 2010, Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan garnered unprecedented support among Nigerians and enormous goodwill from the international community in his epic battle to succeed the late President Umaru Yar'Adua as president. Propelled to power by his nation's local compradors and the "doctrine of necessity" in a country buffeted by sundry fissiparous tendencies, Mr. Jonathan, a minority from the Ijaw tribe won the 2011 Presidential Election convincingly in his own right and became Nigeria's substantive president. Nigeria has managed to remain intact under Mr. Jonathan, but five years after he became president, Mr. Jonathan has alienated key go-to-power brokers and squandered the good luck that helped him to power. His prevarication and dour personality, inaction and dithering administrative style are fueling more viviparous pulls dogging the corporate existence of Africa's most populous nation. Whether Mr. Jonathan wins the forthcoming presidential elections in 2015 or gets the shellacking of his political life is for the Nigerian people to decide, but whatever the outcome of the election, the next four years will be extremely critical for Nigeria as a nation against the backdrop of the smorgasbord of problems that will confront the Nigerian leadership and the swirl of economic problems that will face majority of Nigerians.
