DIFF 2025: I Do Not Come to You by Chance

Possessed of a fine mind but poorly connected in the Nigerian job market, Kingsley takes a job working for his notorious uncle, Cash Daddy, the larger-thanlife mastermind of a thousand email scams. As Kingsley falls reluctantly under his mentor's spell, he discovers his own innate flair for the art of the confidence trick.

Winner of the Commonwealth Writers Prize for Best First Book, and the Betty Trask First Book Award, I Do Not Come to You by Chance was named by The Washington Post as one of the Best Books of 2009 and described as "a lively, good-humored and provocative examination of the truth behind a global inbox of deceit."
