Eunice Adeleke, published author and poet has recently embarked on a project: the publishing and printing of her own book entitled "Victory At Last".

This book comprises of 6 short stories and a collection of related poems that deal with the issue of the violation of human and women rights. The setting takes place in various African cities.

The author wrote this script at the tender age of 14, but due to the lack of funds, was never able to publish. But with the dawn of a new year came renewal of spirit and enthusiasm.

We hope that this project will be completed at the later stages of this year.

More details on the book will be provided with time.
