IN DEFENCE OF “A JOURNEY IN SERVICE”, IBB MEMOIRS

By

When writing an autobiography, the author has the freedom to choose what they want to share about their life, experiences, and perspectives. They are not obligated to address every topic or issue that others might expect or demand.
In the case of General Ibrahim Babangida’s memoir, “A Journey in Service,” he has the prerogative to focus on the aspects of his life and career that he considers most important or relevant. It’s his story, and he gets to tell it his way.
Omoyele Sowore’s criticism that Babangida’s memoir is not good if it doesn’t address certain issues seems unfair. Sowore’s expectations might be driven by his own interests or biases, but that doesn’t mean Babangida is obligated to satisfy them.
An autobiography is a personal reflection, not a comprehensive history or a response to critics. Babangida’s memoir should be evaluated on its own merits, not on how well it meets others’ expectations.
