The former President of the Republic of Sierra Leone Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma and Nigeria’s most powerful men both politically and economically flocks were at the launch of President Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida’s first book – ‘A Journey In Service’.
Around the table were: Presidents Yakubu Gowan, Olusengun Obasanjo, Abdul-Salam Abubakarr, Goodluck Jonathan, Muhammed Buharie was represented by his former Transport Minister, then Ghana’s immediate past president, William Nana Addo Akufor-Addo and finally, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Former Nigerian vice Presidents Atiku Abubakarr, Yemi Osinbajo etc were also present; so were current and past governors and senators, captains of industry Aliko Dangote, Prince Arthur Eze, Tony Elumelu etc. It was an extraordinary even where Nigeria’s Who Is Who assembled to honour one of their own. The highlight of the historic event was Babangida’s acknowledgement that the late Mushod K. Abiola won the presidential election he annulled and his expression of regrets for that decision
