Adolphus Ekejiuba
I am a retired geologist who worked with the Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria. I am also an author. I'm an avid world traveler and philanthropist, contributing significantly to my community development and well-being of the less privileged in Nigeria. I am the founder of the Adolphus Ekejiuba Foundation (now, Friends-In-Need Foundation), a philanthropic organization aimed to reach out to Nigerian youth to curtail restiveness, laziness, ignorance and contracting diseases thereby becoming useful to themselves and the society. I am also a Human Rights campaigner. Along this line, I have written a book, "Love and Stigma: The Outcast System" which is a love story and a documentary fighting against Human Rights abuses emanating form discrimination and stigma against the so-called outcasts in Africa and Asia. By applying Science, Religion and Sociology, the book provided incontrovertible proof that the Outcast System (Caste System) is baseless and should be abolished.
