Reseña del libro "The Letterman: Inside the 'Secret' Letters of former Nigerian President, Olusegun Obasanjo (en Inglés)"
"I believe that the Olusegun Obasanjo letters will find a prominent place in the chapters of Nigeria's contemporary history as informative insights into the national affairs of the country when they were written. I therefore recommend this book, The Letterman, by Musikilu Mojeed to the reading public."- Chief Emeka Anyaoku CFR, CON, GCVO, is a former Secretary-General of the Commonwealth. "The Letterman takes the reader through President Obasanjo's complex, intricate, even serpentine mind, captured by the contents of his no hold-barred letters. The author has offered readers a precious piece of recorded history that will stand the test of time and occupy a special place in Nigeria's rather barren shelves of presidential writing."- Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah, Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Nigeria. "This book is truly a treasure trove of information.... a must and captivating read for all persons seeking to build a prosperous Nigerian nation and a truly great African continent."- Ms. Ifueko M. Omoigui Okauru, MFR, former Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS). "The Letterman reveals values and character, in strong prose that exposes the workings of the inner mind of Nigeria's most complicated leader, self-assured nationalist, versatile entrepreneur, and belletrist. This is a book for keeps - what historians categorise as an archive with an imperishable quality."- Professor Toyin Falola, the Frances and Sanger Mossiker Chair in the Humanities, the University of Texas at Austin, and author of Understanding Modern Nigeria by Cambridge University Press. "This most important book provides significant insight into the philosophy and politics (life and times, head, heart and soul) of one of the most consequential post-colonial African leaders, former President Olusegun Obasanjo. Mojeed has created a timeless resource that will enrich important conversations on nation building and Pan Africanism, today and years into the future."- Ms. Kadaria Ahmed is the Founder/CEO at Radio Now 95.3FM Lagos, a television host, and former editor of NEXT newspaper. "This extraordinarily well-researched and revelatory work is not only a huge addition to our repertory of insight into the texture and complexion of leadership in the country, but also a major addition to knowledge creation in our political history." - Dapo Olorunyomi, Publisher and CEO, Premium Times newspaper.
