In today’s article, we will be talking about how to get one of the best textbooks for WAEC and NECO preparation called Understanding Chemistry. It was written by a prominent author known as Godwin O. Ojokuku.
Because of how good this textbook is, students now use it not only for O’Level exam preparation but also for UTME preparation. In fact, it’s currently one of the JAMB recommended textbooks for chemistry. Each day, I get so many messages from jambites asking me how to get this textbook.
At some point I got confused because, back then, I didn’t know what understanding chemistry was all about. I had to take the bold step to get a copy for myself, and immediately I fell in love with the textbook. Then I understood why students were so desperate to get the textbook.
Speaking of getting the textbook, it wasn’t so easy for me back then because I passed through a lot of stress before I could get a copy for myself. In order not to make students pass through the stress I went through, I had to conduct my own research on the easiest way to get this textbook.
And guess what? The research was productive as I was able to uncover different ways students can get this textbook easily, which I will be sharing with you in this article. The good news is that even if you are interested in getting the hard copy or soft copy (PDF), all will be covered in this article.
But before we proceed, I will like to tell you about the features of understanding chemistry that set it apart from other chemistry textbooks. After that, we will talk about getting the textbook, and then I will conclude this article by giving you my honest review about it. This should be interesting, right? Well, let’s proceed.

How To Get Understanding Chemistry By Godwin O. Ojokuku Easily
Understanding chemistry is available in two formats, which are the hard copy and the soft copy. The hard copy is the physical format, while the soft copy is the digital format, which is mostly in PDF.
In order to make this section understandable, I will be dividing it into two parts, in which the first will talk about how to get the soft copy in PDF while the second will talk about how to get the hard copy.
1 How To Get Understanding Chemistry Soft Copy (PDF)
I find out that most students are interested in getting the soft copy now rather than the hard copy. I think it’s because the soft copy (PDF) of Understanding Chemistry is something that can be accessed anytime and anywhere. The truth is that they are right; in fact, the soft copy is something that can be gotten very easily without passing through much stress.
One of the ways you can get the PDF is from an online store where they sell educational material in PDF format. Locating a store like this can be quite hectic because they are rare. But to make things easier for you, I conducted my own research, and I found one that is legit and also authorized.
In this online store, they sell PDF format for several textbooks, and Understanding Chemistry is among them. I have also seen several students who have purchased the PDF of Understanding Chemistry from them, and they all gave positive reviews and feedback. One good thing about them is that they are also authorized, so they don’t have any issues with copyright.
To get your own copy from this eStore, just click HERE to complete your order. As of the time this article was published, the price was ₦2,500, which is very affordable and definitely cheaper than the hard copy.
2 How To Get The Hard Copy Of Understanding Chemistry
Even if a high rate of students prefer the soft copy (PDF) to the hard copy, we still have some students, especially those in senior secondary school, that need the hard copy. If you are one of them, then below are the 2 easy ways you can get a copy for yourself.
1 From an Online Store
An online store is just like a website where they sell physical products. There are several online stores where you can get the Understanding Chemistry textbook, but below are the 2 legit ones I will recommend to you. They are quite popular, and I am sure you know about them. Well, let’s talk about them.
- From JUMIA
JUMIA is a great online store where you can get physical products. They have been in the game for a long time now and are also highly trusted. The good news here is that they also have Understanding Chemistry by Godwin O. Ojokuku. So if you are interested in buying the hard copy from them, just visit HERE and place your order.
PRICE: ₦7,000
- From KONGA
If you know about JUMIA, then you must have also heard of Konga too. They work exactly like JUMIA and are also trusted. While some prefer shopping with JUMIA, others prefer KONGA, so it all depends on the one you choose. If you are interested in getting the hard copy from this store, kindly visit HERE and complete your order.
PRICE: ₦8,500
- From JIJI
Though Jiji isn’t quite common, but they also have the Understanding Chemistry textbook. The only reason I am recommending them is because they have the latest edition (4th) as well which I like. You can visit HERE if you are interested in getting the textbook from this store.
PRICE: ₦9,000
Additionally, you can GET the hard copy from the same online store I told you about earlier, where they sell textbooks in PDF format. Yes, they also have the hard copy of Understanding Chemistry, and once you purchase it from them, it will be delivered to any location you are in Nigeria. They sell it at a price of ₦4,000, which I feel is cheaper than that of JUMIA and KONGA.
NOTE: Before you make any purchase, make sure you have received the textbook first to be on a safer side.
2 From A Bookshop
A bookshop is simply a place where they sell educational materials like textbooks, novels, and more. You can simply visit anyone close to you and ask them if they have the textbook. If they have and you are satisfied with it, you can simply purchase it.
Actually, the price at which a bookshop sells Understanding Chemistry isn’t fixed, as it is determined by the owner of the bookshop. But I feel it should fall within the range of $4,000 to $7,000 as of now. If you are finding it hard to locate a bookshop, just visit any big market close to your area, and you will surely find a bookshop inside where you can make inquiries about the textbook and as well get your own copy.
With all the information given in this article, getting your own copy of Understanding Chemistry shouldn’t be difficult anymore.
So in conclusion, Understanding Chemistry by Godwin O. Ojokuku is a great textbook for your exam preparation and also a must-have book. Why not try getting one for yourself? Out of 100% of my friends who scored 300+ in UTME, 95% made use of it, so when I tell you this chemistry textbook is good, I know exactly what I am saying. I wish you success in your forthcoming exams.
