About
Thomas Mwakonkha Sakala grew up in Sikalongo, a rural missionary station located south-east of Choma, not far from the Zambezi escarpment north-west of Lake Kariba in Southern Province, Zambia. As a teen, Thomas often haunted the nearby foothills like a second home. In WE’RE ALL POTENTIAL PRISONERS, he explores how personal experiences, mostly negative, are valuable crucibles of business development and communication lessons. Thomas obtained a Bachelor of Mass Communication and a Master of Mass Communication from the University of Zambia and has worked in the business development, public relations and communication space for over a decade. When not writing, he enjoys exploring the outdoors and travelling. WE’RE ALL POTENTIAL PRISONERS is Thomas’ first memoir.
