By Anselem Anokwute
The intellectual landscape of Imo State is set to receive a major boost as the Pan African- Nigerian Elite Forum Transformative Leadership Foundation
(PANEF–TLF) announces the official launch of a collection of books authored by Ambassador Christian Onyeji. The event is scheduled to hold on Sunday, December 14, 2025, at “Rockview Hotel, Amaechi Hall, Owerri, Imo State”.
Amb. Christian Onyeji, a distinguished technocrat, academic advocate, and Founder/Chairman of the Board of Directors and Trustees of PANEF–TLF as well as Director of HAIMCS Nigeria, is credited with over 30 published works spanning psychology, sociology, history, and contemporary affairs.
The forthcoming launch is regarded as the first of its kind in Imo State, where an individual author, presents such a large volume of published works for public unveiling. Organisers say the books reflect the intellectual depth, vision, and cultural dynamism of the Imo people.
Several high-profile personalities featured prominently in the author’s works, including, President Donald Trump of the United States, Nigeria’s Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, and other national and global figures. Senator Akpabio’s book is expected to be specially reviewed at the event, while Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma is billed to attend as the Special Guest of Honour.
There are also indications that a representative of the current U.S. President Donald Trump may grace the occasion.
According to PANEF–TLF, the book series underscores the importance of reading culture, intellectual capacity building, and the role of knowledge production in societal advancements.
With Amazon already engaging with the publications, the organisers believe the launch will place Imo State more firmly on the global educational and intellectual map.
Some analysts are seeing the event as a proud moment for the state, showcasing the creativity, academic strength, and forward-looking ideas of its people. Amb. Christian Onyeji’s growing prominence as an author, is being seen as testament to Imo State’s rich tradition of scholarship and innovation.
