Description

"Unknown Destination" is a succinct account of the ordeals that many African students encounter in the quest for tertiary education. Based on real life-experiences of the author, the book examines a wide spectrum of challenges that confronted African students in the aftermath of the structural adjustments of the 1980s and the concomitant hardship it left across Africa. This unique memoir of the author's academic pursuits examines a nightmare of transformed campus life at Fourah Bay College (University of Sierra Leone), to the socio-cultural rigours of student life in China in the 1980s, a period that saw an influx of African students into the Eastern Bloc thanks to the geopolitical scramble for Africa at the time. Pursuing advanced studies in Germany reveals a dichotomy that motivates the author to tell this captivating story that contrasts student life in the East as experienced in China, with that in the West, Germany.
