Born in Nigeria on October 14, 1975, Seyi Sandra began dabbling into writing from an early age. Her first novel at the age of 13 was considered too ‘grown up’ by publishers but instead of that to dampen her spirit, she shrugged it off and completed her secondary school and she was promptly admitted to the University of Ilorin where she studied English Language.
At the completion of her degree, she got a job with the state’s local newspaper, ”People’s Advocate” where she quickly rose through the ranks to the post of a senior correspondent attached to the state house of assembly.
She is the bestselling author of ”The Impossible President” the novel gripped readers like storm in 2002 and it was released by Regency publishers.
The novel explores the possibility of a woman becoming the first female president in a country like Nigeria where men have failed woefully and politicians cannot be trusted due to their corruption and greed, a country that relegates women to the background when it comes to governance. It’s a novel which celebrates womanhood and the ability to dream big and work hard towards achieving it.
She has established herself as a literary force with the publication of ”The Feet Of Darkness,” the novel sheds light on the struggles of a British scientist who finds himself embroiled in a plot that will not only change his life forever but the world as a whole, it was published in UK in 2007.
However, the second edition is now out, it was published by Arrow Gate Publishing. The kindle and print editions can be purchased on Amazon websites.
The Paperback and Kindle Edition of her new book, a short story, ”Tales Of Five Lies” is out now and can be purchased on Amazon websites.
However this link can take you directly to buy the book.

She is a columnist for ”Black Heritage Today,” a London-based magazine.

What an interesting blog! But .. I am biased already, reading about Nigeria … you see, I grew up in Nigeria (left in 1979; my parents left in 1980), so Nigeria holds a place in my heart. And yes, maybe it’s time for a woman president, to clean up house! Thanks for the like and follow!
I hope so, thanks for stopping by, I also appreciate your glowing comment!

Dear Seyi
I very much enjoyed your blog and will be checking out your books as soon as I get my hands on them. I want to say that I wish more young people would see how accomplished they can be, in which you are one of the most gracious models to use. The is very important specifically for young women during our time because of how the media, television, music industry, etc. puts so much emphasis on the body instead of the mind.
I hope you can follow my blog. I write poetry and so forth. I did fill out the contact form so I hope you receive what I wrote. I had a question I was hoping you could help me with.
Thank you so much for opening my eyes to fresh astounding work.
Steven
Thank you so much for your kind comment Steven! I truly appreciate it.
You’re right about the media, every young girl wanted to be in a reality show, or modelling and such lives are not as glittering as they appear on television.
Thanks for your friendship. I am now following your blog, and would keep tabs on your posts!
I would be thrilled if you can read my books, you can get them on Amazon.co.uk, you would soon find my titles in bookshops within weeks. Have a beautiful weekend Steven.
Blessings.
