<title>Jollof Rice and other revolutions : a novel in interlocking stories / Omolola Ijeoma Ogunyemi.</title>
<description><![CDATA[London : Trapeze, 2022. Abstract: "Moving between Nigeria and America, Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions is a window into the world of accomplished Nigerian women, illuminating the challenges they face and the risks they take to control their destinies. Students at an all-girls boarding school, Nonso, Remi, Aisha, and Solape forge an unbreakable sisterhood that is tempered during a school rebellion, an uprising with repercussions that will forever reverberate through their lives. The children of well-to-do families, these young women have been raised with a thirst for independence, believing a university education is their right--a legacy of ambition and hope inherited from their foremothers. Leaving school and adolescence behind, the women grapple with the unexpected possibilities--and limitations--of adulthood and the uncertainties of the world within and outside of Nigeria. A trip to Ghana opens Nonso's eyes to the lasting impact of the transatlantic slave trade, she falls in love with an African American, and makes a new home in the United States. Remi meets Segun, a dynamic man of Nigerian descent from Yonkers whose own traumatic struggles and support gives her the strength to confront painful family wounds. Aisha's overwhelming sense of guilt haunts her, influencing career and relationship decisions until she sees a chance to save her son's life and, through her sacrifice, redefine her own. Revolving around loss, belonging, family, friendship, alienation, and silence, Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions is a moving, multifaceted portrait of lives shaped by hope and sorrow--of women who must contend with the ever-present and unsettling notion that moving forward in time isn't necessarily progress." --  ASC Subject Headings: Nigeria. ; women students. ; student strikes. ; short stories (form) ; ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[London : Sceptre, 2025. Abstract: When Tia accidentally overhears a whispered conversation between her mother - terminally ill and lying in a hospital bed in Port Harcourt, Nigeria - and her aunt, the repercussions will send her on a desperate quest to uncover a secret her mother has been hiding for nearly two decades. Back home in Lagos a few days later, Adunni, a plucky 14-year-old runaway, is lying awake in Tia's guest room. Having escaped from her rural village in a desperate bid to seek a better future, she's finally found refuge with Tia, who has helped her enroll in school. It's always been Adunni's dream to get an education, and she's bursting with excitement. Suddenly, there's a horrible knocking at the front gate. It's only the beginning of a harrowing ordeal that will see Tia forced to make a terrible choice between protecting Adunni or finally learning the truth.

<title>Tathmini ya "Mgomba changaraweni" katika utekelezaji wa malengo ya elimu / Alfred Malugu, James Marwa Mwita, Lena K. Nyandwaro.</title>
<description><![CDATA[Dodoma, Tanzania : CHALUFAKITA, 2024 
. Jarida la CHALUFAKITA, volume 6, no. 1, p. 70-79. Abstract: "Kulingana na Ngugi (2011:84-94), &#8220;Kiswahili na fasihi ya watoto vina jukumu la kutekeleza malengo manane ya elimu ya taifa nchini Kenya. kama mojawapo ya vitabu vya fasihi ya watoto vinavyotumiwa katika Mtaala wa Elimu nchini Kenya, kinakusudiwa maudhui yake yawe yanatekeleza malengo haya manane ya elimu. Hivyo basi, makala hii inalenga kutathmini iwapo kitabu hiki kinatekeleza malengo hayo manane ya elimu nchini Kenya. Mbinu ya uchanganuzi matini ndiyo iliyotumika katika ufanikishaji wa upatikanaji wa data za kutathminiwa. Mhimili wa mbinu na njia zinazofaa katika kutekeleza mtaala husika kutoka Nadharia ya Utekelezaji wa Mtaala iliyoasisiwa na Gross (1971) ndio iliyotumika katika kufanikisha makala hii. Matokeo yanaonesha kwamba kitabu hiki hakitekelezi malengo manane ya elimu nchini Kenya kwani kinasawiri wahusika wasio na maadili, wakiharibu mazingira, wahusika wasiotilia mkazo masuala ya uzalendo wala kuhimiza umoja wa kitaifa, kinasawiri pia tukio la mhusika kujiua. Aidha, hakihimizi masuala ya kujiendeleza wala kujiajiri. Kusawiriwa kwa maudhui kama hayo kitabuni, kinaifanya makala ihitimishe kuwa riwaya hii sio mwafaka katika kutekeleza malengo manane ya elimu nchini Kenya. Aidha, makala inapendekeza kuwa ipo haja kwa mamlaka ya uidhinishaji wa vitabu vya kutumika katika elimu nchini Kenya, kupitia kwa kina maudhui yanayopatikana katika vitabu husika kabla ya kuviidhinisha kutumika ili kujiridhisha iwapo kweli vinatekeleza malengo ya elimu nchini Kenya." [Journal abstract]  Abstract: This article evaluates whether Ken Walibora's book "Mgomba Changaraweni" aligns with Kenya's eight national goals of education by utilizing textual analysis and Ngugi's (2011) framework. The findings indicate that the book falls short of meeting these educational goals due to problematic themes, including the portrayal of unethical behavior, environmental destruction, a lack of national unity, the depiction of suicide, and an absence of focus on self-reliance  ASC Subject Headings: Kenya. ; youth literature. ; curriculum. ; educational policy. ;  https://www.ajol.info/index.php/jclfkt/article/view/297230 (free access)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Dodoma, Tanzania : CHALUFAKITA, 2023 
. Jarida la CHALUFAKITA, volume 5, no. 1, p. 42-63. Abstract: Makala hii inaijadili fasihi kama nyenzo mwafaka ya utekelezaji wa mtaala unaoegemea katika uwezo kutokana na stadi za karne ya 21, masuala mtambuka, na maadili na mwenendo mwema kupewa uzito katika mtaala huu. Wango la utafiti lilikuwa ni walimu na wanafunzi wa Kiswahili katika kidato cha tano katika shule teule za sekondari nchini Rwanda pamoja na kazi za fasihi zinazotumiwa na walimu wakati wa ufundishaji. Sampuli ilipatikana kwa kutumia mbinu ya usampulishaji lengwa. Nadharia ya Mwingiliano wa Tamaduni-jamii iliongoza hatua mbalimbali za utafiti ulioibua haja ya kuandika makala hii. Aidha, ukusanyaji wa data ulitumia mbinu ya ushuhudiaji, uchambuzi wa matini na mahojiano. Matokeo ya utafiti huu yamebainisha kwamba fasihi hutoa mifano mwafaka ya uwezo wa jumla, masuala mtambuka na mitazamo na thamani. Kwa hivyo, sifa hii sio tu inaifanya fasihi kuwa nyenzo mwafaka ka ya utekelezaji wa mtaala unaoegemea katika uwezo bali pia kudhihirisha umuhimu wa nyuga za kiinsia hata katika zama za sasa.
