A group of publishers in the Obidatti campaign team have published a book as part of the funding tools for the Peter Obi presidency.

Chairman Dasoul Media Editorial Board, Mr Joe Bankole, said at a pre-order public notification in Abuja on Monday that funds realised from the sale of the books would be used to settle expenditures incurred during campaign and election, if Obi eventually becomes president.

“The book titled ‘Business Unusual’ is a postulation of Peter Obi’s administration and what he will do if voted into power,” he said.

Bankole, who retired as a director in the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), said there was the need for every patriotic Nigerian to channel effort at advancing the political fortunes of the country and overcome its self-inflicted problems.

“In view of what Nigerians have experienced at the hands of politicians who have largely disappointed them over the past four decades, Nigerians must be sensitised on this book and what it brings on board the Nigerian political journey.

“The book interrogates the person of Peter Obi to reveal indeed that he embodies what it requires to ultimately get the people’s overwhelming mandate to become the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“It provides a bird’s-eye view of the virtues found in Obi that are common with every great president such as a strong vision for the country’s future, ability to put their perspective of history into governance at the national level and effective communication skills,” he said.

“Also, it portrays his ability and courage to make effective decisions, crisis management skills, character and integrity, wise appointments and ability to work smoothly with the parliament.

According to Bankole, the book provides a scintillating survey of the meaning of the truth and insight into what makes Obi tick, and his experience in corporate Nigerian as well as political administration in Anambra state.

Bankole also said that the book gives insight into Obi’s take on security as a priority to national development and the organic birth of the Obi-dient movement.
