However, a testimony to Fashola’s credentials among the technocrats was evident as the occasion had a surplus of technocrats from various sectors of the society.
The anxiety that preceded Tuesday’s book launch was aptly echoed by the chairman of the ceremony, Mr. Fola Adeola who said that only very brave people were bold enough to come for the ceremony.
Nevertheless, the ceremony was thronged by dignitaries from the various professions outside the political realm. The notable political players present were immediate political associates of the former governor including, former governorship aspirant Mr. Supo Sashore, former deputy Governor, Alhaja Lateefat Okunnu, former Commissioner for finance in Lagos state, Mr Wale Edun, former Senator Munirudeen Muse.

Speaking at the event, former Managing Director of Guaranty Trust Bank, Mr Fola Adeola said he considered those who attended as those who have the interest of the former Governor of Lagos at heart.
