Though this is his first academic book to be published, he has in the past written theses on two other separate Titles such as The Doctrine of Preventive War- A Challenge to the International Community. And Assessing The Impact of Home Improvement Loans on Housing Supply For Low Income Groups in Ghana. The aforementioned were submitted during his studies for two separate masters degrees in International Affairs and Diplomacy as well as Commonwealth Executive Masters in Business Administration.
He first developed an interest in Swahili whiles studying for his Bachelors Degree in Political Science and Swahili in 1998 in the University of Ghana Legon. There he had the opportunity to sit under the teaching of Dr. Jonathan Kwami Mensah- may his soul rest in perfect peace, and Bibi Harrison from Tanzania who both had an impact on his life as they opened his eyes to the beautiful language Swahili which he had heard for the first time. That was the turning point in his life. Though he went further to pursue other interests such as Banking and International Affairs he never relegated his first love to the background.
This book is a classroom experience for the reader. It brings you closer to a simpler understanding of Swahili making you not want to stop or even pause until you finish the read. You learn Swahili in a way the plethora of books will not design for you. You can start making good sentences even before you complete the whole book. It is a must read.
