Book review: The Excellency of knowing him

By Olalere Fagbola
Many people are in recent times disturbingly askance about the reason for my new book :” RAUF AREGBESOLA: SWORN ENEMY OF CONVENTION ” wondering what’s the hell that has gone over me .
Others, including principalities have tried different means to stop its outing , but I trust in the prayerful voices of many understanding people who are hopeful that the biography shall see the light of the day.
“All these Shenanigans will not stop the book, Amen.” (Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity)
To expatiate on its whyfore,( being the third biography I have written on three different state Governors in Nigeria )is to provoke yet another dome of a book which would aptly be christened:” THE EXCELLENCY OF KNOWING HIM .
And it is increasingly dawning on me daily that I would be risking mental insanity not to do so most urgently now because knowing the truth , not only carries by itself a social responsibility, knowing the sacred Truth but refusing to teach and divulge it may be a direct invitation to insanity.
Doing this faithfully is no doubt a direct invitation to writing my entire working memoir as a frontline journalist, author and writing Prophetologist.
“If we could but free ourselves from our timidities and follies, we might realize that even we ourselves have an obligation to leave behind us …”
Indeed, if there is ONE thing of a precious JEWEL that I owe the world, it is telling my own UNCOMMON life story.
The narratives ( including:Sworn Enemy of Convention ) shall hence forth be serialized in worduniversity.net with the autobiography itself hopefully launched to commemorate my 70th birthday.
