Dr Uche  Nworah  ,can be enegmatic, he has no time, whereas any little  time he has, he will use it to X-ray a book. 

In less than two years this is now  second book,  I can challenge you  he is worthy to be crowned a professional  regalia.  I Stand to be challenged on his book.

I hope you  remember  where he is from and how religious he is to his religious studies.

However,  Dr,  UCHE Nworah  ,turned  around  the face of Enugwu Ukwu Igwes  cabinet, Igwe told me how he rates UCHE Nworah. 

This is a book  we are presenting and will be reading, that is the reason  I accepted  to be the Chairman. The best way to learn  is to read. I believe we are going to appreciate  him well.

In his reaction  ,Nworah who was very happy  with the turn out, urged other people to  try and put something  down because  that will be what they will be remembered  with.
