I met Adjekpagbon Blessed Mudiaga through Facebook and what impressed me first about this gentleman was his unspeakable appreciation for the little things that many Americans take for granted such as sharing a posting about his book in order to unselfishly help promote it to others.
I had the honor of reading "Passport to Success" and now "Domestic Daddy" and both stories allowed me the insight to the Igbo culture that I'd never find in any American textbooks. Adjekpagbon places so much focus on the fundamental values of the Nigerian culture and family.
It is endearing that he truly is a man who emphasizes the benefits of education and honesty, yet is unafraid to pay mind to the natural qualities in all human beings such as the sexual and hormonal development of adolescence and its impact on Nigerian students.
I enjoyed drinking in "Domestic Daddy" word for word, exploring the Nigerian culture and reading with a racing heartbeat as Adjekpagbon brought it's readers to those taboo places yet branching away just as you thought he might just cross the border into eroticism.
"Domestic Daddy" was a beautiful read that came full circle from beginning to end and leaves one feeling that the best qualities in human beings settles down to hard work, dedication, honesty and wholesome goodness. A beautiful book for all ages!! Thank you for caring and paying it forward by sharing!
