    About this ebook

    Another ultra-quick-read Thought Provoker from Tosin Ojumu.
    This e-book argues that the general Nigerian attitude to pastors is inherited at least in part from the worship offered to the historical Oba-Kings of the Yorubas.
    Tosin Ojumu's Thought Provokers: Humorous, heartfelt and utterly honest slices of wisdom for busy modern lives!

    Hello, my name is Tosin and for many years I have sat down and thought through questions about how to have an outstandingly successful marriage, and what I need to do before I get married to best ensure that successful marriage. Over the next few weeks and months I aim to publish a new ebook everyday from my blog and relationship series "Finding Mr Huggie-Wuggie." Visit my blog address listed here to see the full list of ebooks as well as video excerpts for each ebook :)

      This is an article? Juts 2 pages or so. I could have sworn I was skimming the preface or introduction but then I had gotten to the end of the "book". wow

      This book should be taken down with immediacy. It contains only 7 pages and no meaningful content. Infact, it only contains Title, About and link to the owner's blog at the last page. Nothing gained!
