Words from Tonye Aganaba:
 
I have always had a real fascination with the stars and the study of ancient worlds, and a recent foray into the world of the ancient mayans, led me to the happy faced White Wizard emblem seen on my album cover. This sign is that of White Wizard, a person believed to be a shaman, guiding others to light by empowering and enchanting them with their gifts. This sign represents my birth-date and as such has turned into a talisman of sorts, representing my belief in the magic of life, and the power of positivity. To continue, please click “MORE”!
