Nigerian lecturer writes book to honour rapper MI

MI Abaga

Noel Michael Buki, a die-hard fan of the award-winning Nigerian rapper Jude Abaga popularly known as MI has written a book to honour the artiste.

Noel Buki took to the social media to share the news while revealing the book’s cover titled, The CROWDED SELF: An Exposition of MI Abaga’s “Study on Self-worth: Yxng DxnzL”.

The writer who is currently lecturing at Nuhu Bamadi Polytechnic, Kaduna State also asked for MI’s permission to publish the book, and MI who was ecstatic gave his un-wavered go-ahead to the fan.

Some other artistes like Falz and Naira Marley, jaywon have been used as case studies and in school thesis but this new development will make MI the only other artiste apart from legendary Afrobeat star, Fela Kuti to have a fan write an inspirational book on him to be published and distributed.

Some of the books published on Fela are; Afrobeat Fela and the Imagined Continent by Sola Olorunyomi and Dis Fela Sef, The Legend(s) Untold by Benson Idonije.
