Synopsis "Time Gives Birth to Champions"
S.Y. Anokehi is a young writer from Jos, Nigeria. He is among the eighty million people in Nigeria who live on less than $2.00 a day. His grandparent's generation were herders and farmers, but the social and economic changes in his country have driven many, like his mother, to the cities in search of a way to make a living. He is one of the children of the transition, who has experience in both realities. This gives him a unique insight and has allowed him to develop a writing voice that bridges these experiences. He is not writing just of the poverty and the struggle to survive and the hope to thrive, he is writing from those realities. Time Gives Birth to Champions takes him from his earliest days, through his time at university. He writes of a world where getting a job at a construction site for less than 25 cents an hour is a triumph, as it allows him to have money for food, while he waits for his next college term to start. It is a world where the expanse of poverty and lack of opportunity is unknown to those in the developed world. In a steadfast and determined way, with great hope and unwavering perseverance, he achieves his goals, one struggle at a time.
