The Literary Lioness: Rewriting Africa’s Story

Josephine isn’t just an author; she’s a cultural architect. As Tribe Leader of The African Writers Tribe and CEO of Kevbes Book Haven, she’s turned ink into impact, publishing 50+ books that amplify Africa’s untold stories. From gripping novels to soul-stirring poetry, her works—available globally on Amazon—are more than bestsellers; they’re blueprints for reclaiming Africa’s narrative in a world hungry for authenticity.

But Josephine’s genius lies in her duality: She’s a mentor, not just a maker. As a book coach, she’s sculpted the careers of aspiring writers worldwide, proving that Africa’s literary future isn’t just in libraries—it’s on TikTok threads, Instagram reels, and digital shelves where Gen-Z devours stories.

Apostle of Action: Where Words Meet Work

Josephine’s mission transcends pages. She’s a social entrepreneur with a fire for literacy as liberation. Through grassroots initiatives, she’s brought books to underserved communities, turning marginalized voices into megaphones. Her accolades—from the Omega Women of the Year Award to global leadership honors—aren’t just trophies; they’re testaments to her belief that “Africa’s pen is mightier than outdated stereotypes.”

Josephine: A Valentine’s Revolution

This February, Josephine is flipping the script on tradition with the Valentine’s Food & Books Festival—a Jua Youth-aligned explosion of culture, commerce, and community. Imagine:

🔥 FOOD VENDORS: Savour jollof rice infused with entrepreneurial spice, plantain chips served with startup dreams.
📚 AUTHORS & SELLERS: Tables stacked with books by African Gen-Z writers—romance, sci-fi, poetry—their covers as vibrant as the continent’s TikTok trends.

“This isn’t just a festival; it’s a marketplace of possibilities,” says Josephine. “Young foodpreneurs and wordsmiths will collide, creating a new model for how Africa feasts on creativity.”
