He stated that the play would premiere in March on the occasion of Chief Obasanjo’s birthday. “The story of Obasanjo must be heard because it resonates amongst all classes of Nigerians and indeed Africans. From his peasant birth through the sufferings of a prisoner of conscience up to the apogee of power and influence you will see the story of resilience, courage, principled leadership, and values that seem lost in today’s Nigeria. For me, Aremu will give us a strong basis to reconnect to our core as Nigerians as we struggle to regain our depth as a proud people,” Edgar said. From there it will touch 10 African cities before berthing in Europe and America.
