The Tunji Braithwaite Foundation (TBF) will on Saturday unveil a commemorative book on social justice crusader and politician, Dr Tunji Braithwaite, in Abuja.
The unveiling is part of activities for the 10th memorial anniversary of Braithwaite, which will have President Bola Tinubu as Special Guest of Honour, at the Congress Hall of Transcorp Hilton Hotel in Abuja on Saturday, May 2, 2026.
Written by a renowned journalist and Public Relations consultant, Muyiwa Akintunde, the literary work expanded on Braithwaite.
The book highlights that, for Braithwaite who died at the age of 82 on March 28, 2016, “rights and privileges shouldn’t be the prerogative of only the nouveau riche, but must also be available to the plebeian.”
The book captures Braithwaite’s “devotion to the cause he truly believed in, a cause he launched through his illustrious legal career, standing in defence of the oppressed without counting the cost.”

“His relentless fight on the side of what was just and true resonates in this book. Even in the face of the gun, he never buckled. For him, evil would never triumph with the will and determination to do the right things’, said Akintunde, who is the Publisher of Breezy News.
The book, according to a statement issued on Friday by the Foundation, will be reviewed by a Director of the Commonwealth Institute of Advanced and Professional Studies, Prof. Anthony Kila, who is a frequent commentator on ARISE News.
The Foundation added that the event themed “Politics with Conscience: Leadership, Responsibility, and the Nigerian Social Contract” will have former Osun State Governor Bisi Akande as the chairman, Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu – Chief Host, while Nobel Laureate Prof. Wole Soyinka will be a Guest of Honour.
