History
ATABI was first launched on February 1, 2021, in Luqoqweni, Eastern Cape province, South Africa. ATABI is one of the initiatives of KwaziThina Publishers, a Pan-African publishing house founded by Nomawele Njongo. ATABI was inspired by Kwazi Njongo and Thina Njongo, two published teen authors who were just 13 and 15 years old at the time. They are the sons of Nomawele Njongo, the founder of KwaziThina Publishers, which was named after them.
