The Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal and his Plateau State counterpart Simon Lalong are to attend a Town Hall meeting to reflect on the future of the country in Abuja.
The event slated for November 7, 2022 is to be chaired by Chief Wole Olanipekun, Chairman Nigerian Body of Benchers at the Nigerian Army Resource Centre, Abuja.
Tambuwal
It is organised by Commonwealth Institution for Advanced and Professional Studies (CIAPS) in collaboration with the Nigerian Political Science Association (NPSA). It is conceived as a forum where political leaders will meet other leaders of thoughts, captains of industries, policy analysts and policy makers to exchange views on the future of the country.
The event is built around the unveiling of a new book titled “Epistles of Anthony Kila” written by the Strategy and Development Professor and CIAPS Centre Director Anthony Kila.
Lalong
There will also be a panel discussion to be made up of Tambuwal, who is Director General of the Atiku/ Okowa Presidential Campaign Council and Lalong, Director General of the Tinubu/ Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, and Dr Doyin Okupe Director General of the Obi/ Datti Presidential Campaign Council.
The new book review will be led by Dr Rueben Abati, columnist and Arise TV broadcaster while panelist conversations will be moderated by Mrs Maupe Ogun Yusuf of Channels TV.
Other dignitaries expected at the event include governors and ministers as well party leaders and members of professional bodies. A statement form CIAPS said the event will be the first forum that will see the campaign Director Generals of the 2023 presidential elections publicly engage each other.
The author of the book Prof Kila said the unveiling of the book was an occasion that “is a good idea to have these DGs tell us themselves what they are directing for the future of Nigeria.”
