This is a book that provides a vantage point to observe history in the making, with a colourful parade of characters: Dele Giwa, Buhari, Babangida, Vatsa, Orka Awolowo, Obasanjo, Imodu, Dasuki, Mandela, Gani, Mobutu, Eyadema, Felix Houphouet-Boiigny, and many more that define the early days of Babarinsa's career as a first class journalist.This is a great work that encapsulates the meaning and character of journalism in Africa's greatest country, with the attendant danger, glamour, and adventure.
