Kachifo Limited was set up in 2004 with just one mission, to tell our own stories. Well, tell Africa’s stories we did, as we have published books from many African authors such as Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Chris Abani, Ben Okri, Ngugi wa Thiong’o, Sefi Attah, Biyi Bandele amongst others.
In this interview with Africa Media Matters, Muhtar Bakare, CEO of Kachifo Limited, shed light on how Farafina has made books accessible to Nigerians. He also spoke on the reason for establishing a publishing house, the challenges so far and how the internet has helped Farafina to reach wider audiences.
