Former Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, lauded Femi Adesina’s book, branding it as “wise and proactive.” Adesina, the former Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, presented the book, titled “Working With Buhari; Reflections of a Special Adviser, Media and Publicity (2015-2023),” to Osinbajo over the weekend.
Scheduled for launch on January 16, 2024, at the Transcorp Hilton, Abuja, the book promises a comprehensive insight into the happenings at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Expressing his appreciation for the speed and quality of the publication, Osinbajo acknowledged the timeliness of Adesina’s initiative. He emphasized the author’s importance as an insider in shaping the narrative surrounding personal details and issues covered in the book. Osinbajo deemed the account as the most reliable representation of his experiences.
Characterizing the book as an “honest account,” Osinbajo highlighted its role as a personal discussion with Nigerians about the persona of President Buhari. Adesina, he noted, stands out as the individual best suited to represent the former President, given his meticulous attention to detail.
The launch, set to be a momentous occasion on January 16, will feature prominent figures. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is slated as the Special Guest of Honour, while former President Muhammadu Buhari will grace the event as the Special Guest. The distinguished roles of Chairman and Co-Chairman will be filled by former Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon, and General I.B.M. Haruna, respectively.
Adding a touch of international significance, a royal delegation from the Saudi Arabia Royal Family, led by HRH Prince Abdulaziz Bin Faisal Al Saud, is expected to attend the event. Alhaji Mohammed Indimi, a billionaire businessman and founder/chairman of Oriental Energy Resources Limited, will take on the role of Chief Launcher, adding prestige to the launch.
