Life is full of twists, turns, and enormous challenges. To navigate it successfully, we all need the right tools. Beneath the Smile (written in honor of Mrs. Rita Olohien Itaman) offers simple, practical guidance on finding lasting happiness even in the midst of life’s difficulties.

This inspiring book reminds us that our smiles matter, no matter the struggles we face, and shows how small, intentional actions can bring peace, joy, and resilience into our daily lives. Beneath the Smile is a heartfelt companion for anyone seeking strength, hope, and a deeper sense of purpose.

Hmmm. There’s a lot to say about your books and most importantly about you. The first day I met you I knew you were different because of the atmosphere you carried. Your presence brings so much joy and happiness to the point it became contagious. I remember always calling you fada smile smile 😁 and it was from you I got this saying “IF YOU ARE NOT SMILING YOU ARE WRONG😊😁 there’s so much to talk about you Fr Ephraim. I appreciate your fatherly love and support when I worked with you @St. Teresa’s Parish, Benin City. Your books has been a source of inspiration, healing and restoration to many. Is my prayer that God will continue to grant you His wisdom and enablement to keep impacting lives via your books and your personality through Christ our Lord. Amen 🙏🏻 🙏🏻🙏🏻
