Dr. Eghosa Imasuen Launches ‘The Challengers’ Book

Dr. Eghosa Imasuen launched his book ‘The Challengers’ at Radisson Blu Anchorage in Victoria Island, amidst a gathering of book lovers, policymakers, and media personalities.

The book, published by Narrative Landscape Press, recounts the true story of the VFD Group founders—Nonso Okpala, Adeniyi Adenubi, Mobolaji Adewumi, Gbenga Omolokun, and Azubike Emodi—who established the company after the 2008 global financial crisis. Imasuen's narrative emphasizes resilience, ambition, and the importance of trust and collaboration over the myth of the lone genius entrepreneur.

The event included engaging conversations, networking opportunities, and book signings, marking Imasuen's return to writing after a 14-year hiatus since his novel, Fine Boys. Renowned book reviewer Kunle Kasumu praised the book for its compelling storytelling, while former President Chief Olusegun Obasanjo described it as transformative for aspiring Nigerian entrepreneurs.

The book consists of 14 chapters and aims to inspire a new generation of business leaders.
