Speaking and Collaboration Services

As a Systems & transformation specialist, Chinenye applies systems thinking and tech transformation to breathe new life into cultural memory.

Thought leader in narrative justice, myth-as-law, and civic archive, Chinenye is a writer, cultural theorist, and mytho-political strategist redefining how African history is told. Her work excavates obscured African mythologies to reveal their role in shaping identity, justice, memory, and civilisational design.

Author of Nigerian Mythology: The Shadow Sky, Meet the Orishas, and The Girl Who Climbed the Tree, Chinenye’s writing blends philosophy, narrative, and archival recovery to restore African memory systems to global prominence. She is the founder of The Afrodeities Institute, a cultural and publishing initiative building diasporic infrastructure across Africa, Latin America, and the UK. Her core message is that African mythology is the twin of African history, and both deserve to be seen, heard, and remembered.

Why? Because mythology was more than legend, it was law, time, and memory.

The Problem

For centuries, African history has been narrated as a story of lack — a lack of civilisation, a lack of innovation, and a lack of memory. However, this narrative is a colonial invention, overlooking the knowledge systems encoded in mythology, the civic orders embedded in ritual, and the philosophical brilliance erased from the archives.

The Reframe

African mythology is civilisational infrastructure, a system of law, cosmology, moral code, and governance. In Greece, myth is history. In Africa, it has been dismissed - and so too has much of our historical credibility.

My Work

I write, speak, and teach at the intersection of memory, myth, and African futures. My three books —

• Nigerian Mythology: The Shadow Sky

• Meet the Orishas

• The Girl Who Climbed the Tree
  — Form the foundation of a growing mythological canon that reframes Black and African identity at its source.

What I Offer

I help institutions, educators, policymakers, and cultural platforms reimagine African history as a system of wisdom, timekeeping, law, and innovation. Through myth, we:

• Restore erased knowledge

• Reclaim agency and ancestral authority

• Rebuild futures from source code, not subjugation

Book Me To Speak On:

• “The Pharaohs Were Doing Their Black Jobs” – Mythology and Memory as Employment of Empire

• “African Mythology Is the Twin of African History” – Reclaiming Credibility Through Culture

• “The Codex and the Comeback” – Restoring Myth as Infrastructure

• “Black History Didn’t Begin with Slavery — It Began with Systems” – And We’re Bringing Them Back

Let’s work together — to restore what was erased and to make African history whole again.
