African President's Daughter is the incredible memoir of Dr. Iyabo Obasanjo, the daughter of a prominent African statesman.
Dr. Obasanjo begins with her heart-wrenching account of enduring a childhood with a chauvinist father engrossed in self-advancement to the detriment of his wife and children. Readers will find the personal accounts of Dr. Obasanjo nearly being killed in an assassination attempt and facing harassment from the government officials because of her status as the female daughter of the president.
Dr. Obasanjo chronicles her path into her own political career, the many challenges of being a female politician in Nigeria, and the joys of overcoming obstacles. She gives readers her unique perspective on Africa and its developmental issues acquired through her life and education. The result is a memoir that is inspiring, entertaining, and educational.
