The magic continues. This month’s cover is about China’s influence in Africa and we have an excerpt from Solomon Elusoji’s new book Travelling With Big Brother, which documents his reporting trips across China. On the other hand, Farida Adamu reflects on data privacy, Carl Terver muses over Naira Marley (who appears for the second time in this magazine) and there is an interview with poet, Nathaniel Soonest.
Perhaps the most important thing about this issue is the new section devoted to poetry. Nathaniel Soonest is the first poet to be published and hopefully, he will not be the last. So, sit back and enjoy the stories. I’ll suggest you keep a cup of coffee or chocolate by your side – it’s going to be an enjoyable ride. ✚
