Ikeofo, a scientist who researches on paranormal and extra-terrestrial activities and also on how mankind can achieve a longer life span, or possible immortality, encounters the most paranormal occurrence of his career when someone appears on the media and claims to be the ancient Herodotus, the world acclaimed man of history, and who existed two thousand five hundred years ago. Herodotus claimed to have been alive all these while in an extra-terrestrial planet, and the world was further thrown into amazement and fear when he presented evidences that support some of his claims. If his claims were to be true, how did he survive for that long? How come the extra-terrestrial world exists and man with all their scientific and technological advancements did not know it? Does his strange phenomenon endanger the earth? Especially the possibility of alien invasion. Why did he make himself known by now after all these years? Nevertheless, he called for a world conference to clarify things to an already agitated human populace amidst a military coalition of all earth nations under the U.N., in a coordinated effort to defend the earth against any possible external threat. But during the conference he exposes a deadly conspiracy that was about to kill over seven billion people, orchestrated by a secret organization in alliance with some human-like aliens who infiltrated the earth after World War II. By the end of the conference day one, more breath taking secrets were discovered, other secretes about African political, economic, religious and social history in relation to the world of Asia, Europe and America were uncovered; more intrigues occurred, and the world was more agitated than they had been at the beginning of the day, as these secretes proof that most things we have come to know and believe of our world are not really what they seem to be. Interesting, humorous, informing and almost unbelievable, the world will never forget 'conference day one'. "In terms of agenda, this work represents a syncretic adaptation and application of the styles, nay, vision and mission of Frantz Fanon in The Wretched of the Earth, Walter Rodney in How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, Chinweizu in The West and the Rest of Us and, Chinua Achebe in Things Fall Apart: Seasoned with Nationalist flavour and fervour. It is a remix for another generation of Africanists. It also serves as a reminder for the older generation of humans concerning the reality on the ground." -Jude Okezie Emmanuel, Udenta. Professor of Government / Public Administration, Enugu State University of Science & Technology, ESUT.
