Title: A Handbook on Social Entrepreneurship and Non-Governmental Organizations with Case Studies Authors: Adeyeye, Mercy M.; Eniola, Anthony A. Abstract: This book is a compendium of social entrepreneurship and Non-Governmental Organizations with case studies. This book is a response to the lack of an academic book on Social entrepreneurship and Non-Governmental Organizations generally and in Africa particularly. It is an objective writing that is both expository and exploratory, informative and educative with twenty-six chapters. The first eight chapters focusses on the journey from the general entrepreneurship to social entrepreneurship by providing a general overview of the subject matter conceptually. The next two chapters were devoted to sustainable entrepreneurship and environmental entrepreneurship as related to social entrepreneurship whilst the eleventh chapter is on social business registration procedures. The next section is chapters twelve to eighteen presenting all that needs to be known about NGOs at this level, from history to classifications, characteristics and registration as well as for foundations. Chapters nineteen and twenty are devoted to social entrepreneurship in public sectors and the ways of introducing entrepreneurship into governmental Organizations. The models of entrepreneurship and various schools of thoughts are simplified with due consideration to social entrepreneurship and poverty alleviation in the subsequent chapters. Finally, the last two chapters are compilation of thirty-two case studies and practicing exercises to drive in the lessons into real life experiences. The book has the potential to benefit current practitioners, future social entrepreneurs, individuals, NGOS, public sectors and academics that are interested in the field of social entrepreneurship. Furthermore, the book will be suitable in developing the best possible curricula for educating students in NGOs and public sectors seeking to be entrepreneurial. Description: Epigraph “We need to reverse three centuries of walling the for-profit and non-profit sectors off from one another. When you think for-profit and non-for-profit, you must often think of entities with either zero social return or zero return on capital and zero social return. Clearly, there’s opportunity in the spectrum between those extremes” - Bill Drayton (Ashoka Founder). “I’m encouraging young people to become social business entrepreneurs and contribute to the world, rather than just making money. Making money is no fun. Contributing to and changing the world is a lot more fun” - Muhammad Yunus. “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give” “The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty” – Winston Churchill. “Let us remember one book, our book, one pen, one child and one teacher can change the world” - Mukaila Yousafzai A COMPENDIUM OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND NGOs

Title: Least Developed Countries in Africa Authors: Wale-Oshinowo, Bamidele .A.; Omobowale, Ayokunle. o; Adeyeye, Mercy M.; Lebura, Sorbarikor Abstract: Africa remains the most underdeveloped among the comity of continents across the world. It contains over 70% of the least developed countries (LDCs) in the world. Sadly, the African continent largely depends on aids, with most countries in Africa still running as mono-product economies, and a larger percentage affected by corruption, ethnoreligious conflicts, and civil wars (Akanji 2009; Omobowale 2015). To further indicate the criticality of this situation, out of the 47 countries that make up the global list of least developed countries, 33 of them are found on the African continent. All of Africa’s 33 least developed countries are in Sub-Saharan Africa, indicating the precarious nature of the subcontinent as shown in Table 1 below. Further, several reports that are based on empirical data suggest that inadequate access to basic livelihood needs, such as shelter, health, education, food, water, and transportation, compounds the precarious context of underdevelopment in Sub-Saharan Africa (United Nations Development Programme 2016).
