Many of you are aware that my friends Professor Moses Ochonu, Dr. Osmund Agbo, and I wrote a book on Nigeria titled "Dis Life No Balance: An Anthology of Diasporan Nigerian Voices." We're now in Nigeria to launch it on December 14 at the National Press Centre in Abuja from 10 a.m. to 2:15 p.m.
The public is warmly and heartily invited. We hope to meet many of you our social media friends there.
Many prominent Nigerians have agreed to be at the book launch. Former Sokoto State Governor and current Senator Aminu Tambuwal will be the Chief Launcher; Femi Falana, SAN, will be the Guest Speaker; and former presidential spokesman and veteran journalist Segun Adeniyi will be the book reviewer.
The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Alhaji Mohammed Idris Malagi, will grace the occasion.
So will former Kano State Governor and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, and former Minister of Aviation Chief Osita Chidoka.
The book presentation will also feature a panel discussion on the topic, “Defying the Odds: Nigeria’s Path to Hopeful Horizons.” The panel, which will be moderated by veteran journalist and Editorial Board Chair of Blueprint Newspapers Hajia Zainab Suleiman Okino, comprises newspaper columnist and TV analyst Majeed Dahiru, lawyer and election law expert Amina Ciroman Miango, and epidemiologist and renowned bibliophile Dr. Muhammad Shakir Balogun
We hope to see you this Thursday!
