Autorenporträt
Luke Onuoha hails from Aba, Nigeria. He was ten years old when the worst hostilities broke out between the Federal Government of Nigeria and the People of Eastern Nigeria (a.k.a. Republic of BIAFRA) in 1967. As a minor in Biafra during the 30 months of civil war that claimed the lives of over three million men, women and children, mainly of eastern origin, Onuoha was a witness to massive horrors of war, including ferocious air raids, unimaginable diseases such as the dreaded kwashiorkor and cholera, as well as debilitating hunger, degrading and helpless refugee life, and massive deaths of innocent people. At present, a professor affiliated to one of Nigeria's Universities, Onuoha enjoys reading and writing memoirs. His other books in print include The Hand of God: Success Story of a village boy, Lifted by God (co-author); Money Habits Grandma Taught Me, Make Money, Retire Happy, and The Beautiful Art of Positive Living. Onuoha is happily married with children.
