The event is to be chaired by H.E. General (Rtd.)

The foreward was written by H.E. General (Rtd.) Abdulsalami Abubakar, GCFR, Former Head of State, and in it he said “The title Unfinished Greatness inspires hope in us that our march into the future is a purposeful journey of destiny.” In the words of H.E. Dr. John Dramani Mahama, Former President of Ghana: “Nigeria remains central to the vision of an African renaissance. In Unfinished Greatness, Fayemi reminds us of the power of unity in nation building. The ideas in this book encapsulate the roadmap for peace and sustainable development in Nigeria, and indeed the rest of Africa”, while Professor Tunde Adeniran, Former Minister of Education states that “Unfinished Greatness convincingly challenges false narratives about our trajectory as a country and offers profound historical insights to prove that there is more that unites us than our differences.”
