Former Governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, has shared his thoughts on Nigeria’s political history, following his attendance at the presentation of former military President Ibrahim Babangida’s autobiography, ‘A Journey in Service’.

Fayemi, a known pro-democracy activist, took to his LinkedIn account on Saturday to reflect on the significance of the memoir and its impact on national discourse.

“Given my long-standing role as a pro-democracy activist, attending the book launch of ‘A Journey in Service: An Autobiography of Ibrahim Babangida’ in Abuja was a moment of reflection”, Fayemi wrote.

He acknowledged that the book provides a window into Nigeria’s governance and political evolution, highlighting key moments that shaped the country’s democratic journey.

“General Babangida’s memoir offers insights into leadership, governance, and Nigeria’s political evolution, including defining moments that shaped our democratic struggles,” he stated.

Fayemi further emphasised the importance of documenting historical events, noting that while every era will be judged by history, preserving such experiences is essential for national growth.

“While history will continue to judge every era, documenting these experiences remains crucial for national learning and dialogue,” he added.
