According to Carrena: “The 10 chapter book took a look at Obasanjo from his childhood, his early days in Ibogun, his younger years in the military, his many roles as president and his other roles, either as a man, army General or a two-term president.

The book also contains some of the behind-the-scene power plays that makes Obasanjo the controversial character that he is.”

He said Obasanjo has promised to be there in person.
