Kenneth Nnebue

Kenneth Nnebue was born in 1958 in Onitsha, into a family of Igbo traders. A seller of blank cassettes in Lagos, he had the idea in 1992, in order to clear a stock that was not selling, of having a story recorded on the tapes and selling them filled: the method made a fortune and founded an industry. He went on to produce dozens of titles and was, for a few years, the most powerful man in the trade. Having become an evangelical preacher, he has withdrawn from it and has sought to remove from the market part of what he had produced.
