Read Nigeria Project is a project
devoted for readers and lovers of books across Nigeria to celebrate and honour
some selected important personalities who have contributed meaningfully to the
learning and reading culture of the country.
The project also hopes to promote
book reading through different events like book bee, quiz contests and other
mediums across the country irrespective of tribe, color, sect, age, religion
and gender.
Adwinsa Publications was established
in March of 1977 in Madina, a suberb of Accra, the capital of Ghana in West
Africa. The young business at the time began in the CEO’s house. During the
late 1980’s Adwinsa went from a small location to Accra Newtown, also in the
Capital City. During this time we also embraced “desktop publishing” (which was
also an industry in its infancy) as well as commercial offset printing. From
the year 2000 to 2014, we have added multiple high speed printing machines that
propelled us into a new level of high-quality offset printing. We also built
and expanded our services by putting up an office complex in Agbobga in Accra,
Ghana.
The publishing firm is considered
experts in Junior and Senior High school syllabus based text books in Ghana.
The firm focuses on books for the Basic, secondary and tertiary institutions
that have been largely acknowledged locally by students, parents, governments
and the international community. As a family-owned company, one of Adwinsa
Publications’ strengths is its focus on the family and its desire to see
families succeed in education, especially in the long term development of every
child in the family.
