The Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the President on Special Needs and Equal Opportunities, Mr Mohammed Isa, on Monday inaugurated the Technical Working Committee for the launch of a book titled “The New Nigeria: Compliment to the Game-Changer.”
Isa said the book initiative, championed by the International Christian Organisation for Sustainable Development (ICOSD) in partnership with his office, was dedicated to President Bola Tinubu and aligned with the Renewed Hope Agenda.
He conveyed the greetings of President Tinubu to stakeholders and described the book project as a reflection of the administration’s vision of bold reforms, inclusive growth and decisive leadership.
According to him, the 700-page book, authored by Dr Joseph Vambe with a foreword by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Sen. George Akume, documents Nigeria’s ongoing transformation under Tinubu’s leadership.
“The book captures the remarkable progress, policy choices and strategic reforms being implemented by the President, and invites Nigerians to appreciate this defining moment in our national journey,” Isa said.
He charged members of the Technical Working Committee to work diligently to ensure a successful and nationally significant book launch, urging them to adhere strictly to the approved terms of reference, implementation strategy and sponsorship plan.
Isa emphasised teamwork, professionalism, accountability and dedication as guiding principles for the committee, before formally inaugurating its members.
In his remarks, the Chairman, Board of Trustees of ICOSD and author of the book, Dr Joseph Vambe, said the project was inspired by Tinubu’s emergence and the reforms of his administration.
Vambe said the organisation began documenting the administration’s activities from the President’s first day in office to show the evidence that “Nigeria already has a New Nigeria.”
He commended the SSA to the president for his support and partnership, noting that the collaboration gave the project renewed momentum.
“We approached government institutions earlier, but it was our meeting with the SSA that marked a turning point. From that day, he showed interest and embraced this vision,” Vambe said.
He added that the partnership was aimed at promoting empowerment initiatives and supporting the Renewed Hope Agenda, expressing confidence in Nigeria’s aspiration of becoming a trillion-dollar economy.
In his closing remarks, the Chairman of the Technical Committee, Mr Emmanuel Afolabi, thanked the SSA for the warm reception accorded the committee.
Afolabi assured that members would work within the established guidelines to ensure the success of the assignment and contribute to making Nigeria greater in line with the President’s vision.
“We assure you that we’ll never let you down we will work according to the the norms that have established this group and our aim is to make Nigeria great just with the president and we will do that by the grace of God, ” Afolabi said. (
