Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, former Vice Presidents Atiku Abubakar and Namadi Sambo, along with former Senate Presidents Ken Nnamani and Pius Ayim, were among the distinguished guests at the launch of Sule Lamido’s autobiography, Being True to Myself. The event is currently taking place at the NAF Conference Centre in Abuja,

The launch has attracted numerous political heavyweights, including the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and several sitting governors such as Gombe State Governor Muhammadu Yahaya, Jigawa State Governor Umar Namadi, and Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang.

Also present were former governors, including Gabriel Suswam (Benue), Ahmed Makarfi (Kaduna), Babangida Aliyu (Niger), and Liyel Imoke (Cross River).

The book launch will feature a review by former PDP National Chairman Iyorchia Ayu. Being True to Myself promises to offer an intimate look at Lamido’s political journey. Lamido, who served as Foreign Affairs Minister under Obasanjo from 1999 to 2003 and as Jigawa State Governor from 2007 to 2015, has been a long-standing figure in Nigerian politics. Before his time as governor, he was a member of the House of Representatives from 1979 to 1983.
