A Thousand Times on the Same Road casts Acheru immutably as a pastmaster of his trade. It drips and rips with heart-warming encounters, heartbreaking situations, gory scenes, ecstatic themes and gruesome accounts as the reader gets soaked in a long story of expectations fully met, hopes dashed, ideas that blossom to fruition, dreams unrealised and people who support you to the hilt, as well as others who bludgeon you at the most unexpected turn.  

Anybody who has ever been in a Nigerian football stadium, or been involved in Nigerian football, will certainly find every line, every word in this book resonating. China Acheru is us; this book is all our experiences and Acheru captures it all in a most captivating, enjoyable, easy to follow, market square style.

Irresistible, an insider’s account packed with humour and nothing but the truth. If you want to understand Nigerian football and its intricacies, then this book sure lifts the curtain for more than a peek.

A Thousand Times On The Same Road is about China’s journey around football for almost 30 years. No, he could no have said everything but he drops some good bits here.

Story telling is becoming a lost artform in the Sports Industry. @Ikwerreman wants to change that. It is a must buy.

If there is one thing that China IkwerreMan Acheru’s “A Thousand Times on the same Road” will do, it is to kindle or rekindle your interest in Nigeria’s football league – the drama, the intrigues. As a story teller, I have always believed there are several behind the scenes football stories that don’t make it to the front pages. I am so glad China could tell some of them. The one about Sharks and Dolphins…I kept turning the pages to see what happened next. If you love football like I do, then you’d love this book.
