The book titled ‘My Transition Hours’ is scheduled to be launched on November 20, which, coincidentally, is Mr Jonathan’s birthday.

Mr Buhari will be the special guest of honour, Mr Obasanjo, the chairman of the event while Mr Abubakar has been invited as special guest.

Other dignitaries that will be performing key roles at the event are the former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Salihu Belgore, who has been penciled down as the book reviewer; Theophilus Danjuma, who will play the role of chief book presenter and Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson, the chief host.

It gladdens my heart to dedicate these few days to tweet some excerpts of my boss’s invaluable quotes from his soon to be launched book “Transition Hours”. I have always said to people that time will always vindicate for he’s a good man.

Many African heads of state, former leaders and numerous international personalities are also expected to grace the occasion, including President Alassane Ouattara of Cote d’Ivoire and former Ghanaian President, John Mahama.

A sample of the invitation letter signed by the Chairman of the Book Presentation Committee, Bashir Yuguda, said the book “gives some insight into the 2015 presidential election and also a reflection on some key decisions by His Excellency, the former President while in Office.”
