Three books that captured the activities of Mr Babatunde Raji Fashola as Governor of Lagos state will be launched on Friday May 15, at the Shell Hall of Muson Centre, Onikan, Lagos at 10 am.
The books are: The Great Leap: Selected Speeches of Babatunde Raji Fashola; In Bold Prints: Thoughts of Babatunde Raji Fashola and The Lagos Blow Down: West Africa's First Controlled Demolition. The first two books were complied and edited by Governor Fashola's Special Adviser on Media, Mr Hakeem Bello while the third book was edited jointly by a seasoned writer, Dapo Adeniyi and Hakeem Bello.
A statement issued by Hakeem Bello yesterday said, "the three books being presented serve to set on permanent record some of the achievements of Governor Fashola".
According to the statement, the first book is a careful selection of some of the speeches delivered by the governor, revealing him as a highly organised, systematic and well-focused man.
The second book puts together some of the thought provoking statements the governor made during the period of his governance while the third book sets down for history the different stages of planning, and executing the controlled demolition of the former Bank of Industry building located in Broad Street Lagos following its partial collapse in 2006.
