Obasanjo to Appear in Exclusive Live Interview on BOILING POINT This Sunday

The promoters of BOILING POINT ARENA, a popular discourse platform on governance and nation-building, have released the link for the highly anticipated One-on-One live interview with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, set for Sunday, December 8, 2024, at 8 pm.

The interview, which is expected to attract a global audience, marks the 26th edition of the monthly current affairs program. Hosted by media professional and public relations strategist Dr. Ayo Arowojolu, whose career spans over three decades across media, banking, and education, the session promises to be a major highlight.

The program will be streamed live via Zoom and broadcast on three radio stations: Sweet 107.1FM in Abeokuta, WASH 94.9FM in Lagos, and Eagle 7 Radio 103.7FM in Wasimi.

Obasanjo, who served as Nigeria's president for nearly 12 years, is uniquely positioned to offer a deep assessment of the Nigerian project. He will discuss key moments in the nation's history, specifically identifying when the fortunes of the once-acclaimed "Giant of Africa" began to decline.

The retired General from Owu, Abeokuta, will reflect on his legacies during both his military rule and his eight years in office as a civilian president. Key topics will include the state of Nigeria's economy, the national debt profile, the welfare of Nigerians, and security.

As part of the discussion, Obasanjo is expected to evaluate the leadership qualities of past Nigerian leaders, comparing them to his own tenure and assessing the leadership of current President Bola Tinubu.

Foremost traditional ruler and Chairman of the Boiling Point Council of Royals and Elders, Oba Prof. Saka Matemilola, the Olowu of Owu Kingdom, will deliver the keynote address to kick off the event.

BOILING POINT is a news and general interest group that boasts a distinguished membership, including over 300 professors, technocrats, industry leaders, high court justices, traditional rulers, security experts, media professionals, and more.
