Memoir of an Unknown Script Actor is about a Nigerian farmer's son's quest to obtain a western education, return to his native land, and clear his father's name. It is the story of a father's belief in education and the son's efforts to make his wish come true with the odds heavily stacked against him. This is the story of a life dominated by the hands of fate, destiny, and Divine intervention at critical times to keep his hope of going back to the village, to make a difference, alive. Memoir of an Unknown Script Actor is a sad story in the sense that despite his success in the United States in raising a Rhodes Scholar/Oxford DPhil, an MIT PhD, and a Harvard Law graduate, to this point, his one dream of proving to his compound that his father's belief in education was not misplaced; has eluded him. It traces the trials and tribulations of a foreign student on F-1 visa and what became of him when his scholarship ended. Memoir of an Unknown Script Actor depicts the greatness of United States as a land of opportunity, a place where you can succeed on less than a shoestring budget. It provides support for the Shakespearean notion that humans are actors on the stage of the universe. It is a book about humans as unknown script actors where the Creator is both the writer and director of the play, a play in which there are no scripts to follow and no retakes.
