While addressing guests, Kareem explained that the opening section of the book outlines his personal journey and leadership blueprint. He emphasised education as a critical pillar of development.
 
“All children should have access to free and quality education regardless of their background or whether they attend public or private schools,” he said, noting that proper funding and accurate data would make such a policy achievable and boost job creation.
 
He also outlined plans for the health sector and security, saying mobile clinics would be introduced to improve access to healthcare, while CCTV cameras would be deployed across the state to tackle insecurity.
 
The well-attended book launch drew party leaders, professionals, traditional rulers and youth stakeholders from across Oyo State and beyond, reflecting growing interest in Kareem’s ideas and his advocacy for people-centred leadership.
 
The event was well attended by high profile personalities including: Mrs Maybell Williams.
