Ojo’s first book: ‘Nigeria, My Nigeria: Perspectives from 1990 – 2010’ was released in 2010.

The chapters have issues relating to politics and elections, governance, legislature and judiciary, women and persons with disabilities as well as security, media and society.

Ojo said though the articles in the book had been published in various newspapers, having them as a collection would contribute to body of knowledge on governance.
The unveiling of the book will be preceded by a public lecture to be delivered by Isaac Albert, a professor of African History at the University of Ibadan.
The event will hold at Newton Park Hotel Annex, Wuse 2, Abuja, on August 25.
