The British Council will on October 25 play host to three prominent African writers and philosophers - Professor Ali Mazrui, Onyekachi Wambu and Marianna Ofosu - at its Management Forum. A statement issued by the British Council on Tuesday said the three were among a number of distinguished people who contributed to a recent book of essays on leadership in Africa entitled "Under the tree of talking - leadership for Change in Africa.” It said the book contained fresh insights into leadership cultures in different African contexts and also identified the weaknesses and strengths that blocked or advanced development on the continent. The statement said the book would be launched on October 24. Source: GNA
