With almost 1,000 book, music, movie, and sundry reviews and essays published over the past four (4) years, we remain resolute in our belief that reviews offer us the first critical engagement with a work of art, books, movies, music, plays etc, because they help shape opinion, excite conversation, and push engagement.As we enter our 5th year, we remain committed to providing a unique space for interrogating our literary and artistic output and providing a handle for the audience and those in the academia to assess these works of literature and art.

This book is a valuable knowledge base for everyone involved in the gas value chain, from students to oil industry workers, technocrats and policy makers as we proceed with our Energy Transition agenda
As the title suggests, Osezua’a book chronicles the history of the bride of the hydrocarbons from its very beginning, his role in it and early enthusiasm shown towards a workable national gas policy, the consequences of not tapping into it early enough, the crude politics and power play involved, the betrayals and in-fighting among the big players in the sector.
biefuna’s strategies for survival largely consist of passivity, compliance, patience and conformity. Obiefuna’s life expands as he finds an alternative “chosen family” and is forced to engage with the weaponisation of queerness by the Nigerian political class.
