Firstsitenews- Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has called on Nigerian leaders to remain committed to national development, emphasizing that their responsibility to the country is far from over.
He made this statement during the public presentation of “Being True to Myself,” the autobiography of former Jigawa State Governor and ex-Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sule Lamido. The event, held at the NAF Conference Centre in Abuja, drew prominent political figures from across party lines.
Obasanjo urged Lamido and other elder statesmen not to retreat from national service, insisting that the mission of building a better Nigeria is still ongoing.
“The Nigeria we’re striving to build is not yet a reality. It remains our collective duty to keep working until we get there. Our job is not done until we are done,” he stated.
Dignitaries present at the book launch included former Vice Presidents Namadi Sambo and Atiku Abubakar; former presidential candidate Peter Obi; ex-National Security Adviser Lt. Gen. Aliyu Gusau; and former Senate Presidents Anyim Pius Anyim and Ken Nnamani.
Also in attendance were the Minister of Information, Mohammed Idris (representing President Bola Tinubu), and former PDP National Chairman and book reviewer, Dr. Iyiorchia Ayu, among other notable personalities.
