Barely 24 hours after it’s launch in Abuja, the latest book by former Nigeria’s military head of State, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida has been pirated by unknown individuals.

Soft copies of the 440 page are now on various social media platforms especially whatsapp and X.

Though, News Band could not independently ascertained how the book found itself online when several people are still scrambling to get copies.

The book launch on Friday, was well attended by several prominent figures including President Bola Tinubu and four former heads of State.

Over N17.5 billion was also raised at the launch of the Ibrahim Babangida Presidential library to be sited in Minna, the capital of Niger State.

Moreover, at this point, the possibility of IBB recouping his investment in the autobiography may have already been dashed, with millions of people having access to the pirated copy.

The former military President is yet to make an official statement in respect to the development.
