The author of the book, Hon. Abubakar Muhammad (Abk) said he was inspired to write the book after seeing the transformational ingenuity of Mr. President in Lagos State as the State Governor and how he masterminded the victory of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from opposition to being the Government of the day in Nigeria today despite all odds. He traced Mr. President’s political trajectory from the days of his confrontation with the Military administration of General Sani Abacha, together with others demanding for the installation of the winner of the June 12 1993 Presidential election, Bashirun MKO Abiola ad President.
Dr. Nasir Ladan, the Director-General of the AASG said the book is a well researched work by Hon. Abubakar Muhammad, one of the Support Group Leaders under the Amalgamated APC Support Groups. Mr. President deserves all honours that could be given to him now that he is alive because he has paid his dues sufficiently for a great Nigeria of our dreams to be achieved. He noted that his contributions to the present Nigeria cannot be over emphasised, he said.
In his own words, the Administrative Secretary of the Group, Hon. Alfa Haruna said Mr. President deserves such a honour as this and at a time like this. He explained that Mr. President truly fought alongside others to reinstate democratic order in Nigeria by rejecting all the tempting offers given by the then Military junta in Nigeria.
Speaking on the Book’s title, the National Director, Media & Publicity of AASG, Hon. ‘Wale Fasade opined that no other title would have been more appropriate than “The Saviour of Democratic Spirit of Nigeria” having played such a pivotal role in returning Nigeria to democratic rule. Mr. President’s touch of excellence on Lagos has turned the State to a gold-mine, making it the 5th largest economy is Africa, he said.
The National Director of ICT/New Media, Hon. Femi Showunmi said “all is set for the event at the NAF Centre as all our members have been invited to be in attendance in their numbers, and they will definitely come”.
