“PATRICK POIRSON- Ici Toujours is a 42-paged memento – or scrapbook if you please, lovingly collected in memory and in honour of late Patrick Poirson who lost his battle with cancer in 2017. The anthology features poetry by Nigerian poets, photographs, a biography, written by his darling wife, Brigitte Poirson, and a memoir by his lovely daughter Claire Poirson. Patrick Poirson is one man who epitomizes kindness beyond borders” ― Kukogho Iruesiri Samson
“Patrick Poirson is one man who epitomizes kindness beyond borders. Together with his wife Brigitte Poirson, his hands have helped many a young Nigerian, all the way from France – people he had never met. Yes, sadly so, he lost the battle against cancer, but he has won many other battles for many of us. For that, he will never be forgotten!
