Former President Muhammadu Buhari and his successor, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, are set to appear publicly together for the first time since the 2023 handover at the launch of “Working with Buhari,” a book by Mr. Femi Adesina, Buhari’s former Special Adviser on Media and Publicity.
The event, described as a “historic moment” by the Planning Committee Chairman, Malam Garba Deen Muhammad, will take place on Tuesday, January 16th at the Transcorp Hilton in Abuja with Tinubu expected as special guest of honour.
Also expected at the event are former Head of State and chairman of the occasion, General Yakubu Gowon, while the co-Chairman would be General I.B.M Haruna, among other dignitaries.
A royal delegation from Saudi Arabia, led by Prince Abdulaziz Bin Faisal Al Saud, has also confirmed attendance, while Alhaji Mohammed Indimi, would be the chief launcher.

A statement in Abuja by the Committee said, “The book will provide insight unlikely to be found anywhere else; because Femi will be telling his story from a morally strong position.
“Those who know Femi are very familiar with his unwavering loyalty to his principal, former president Muhammadu Buhari. The book will reveal Femi’s motivation; why Buhari was, is, and will likely remain his hero. It is, in one sentence, ‘a study in loyalty.”
The book, published by Safari Books, is a memoir of Adesina’s eight years in office as special adviser to Buhari on Media and Publicity – an office that afforded him a front-row seat in Buhari’s government.
