All Eyes on Abuja: Mathew Tonlagha Set to Launch Landmark Book at ICC
Major Literary and Leadership Event in the Nation’s Capital
Renowned Niger Delta business mogul, philanthropist, and industrialist, Chief Mathew Tonlagha, is set to launch his much-anticipated book at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja, on February 8, 2026.
The forthcoming book launch, already being described as a major national event, is expected to attract top government officials, captains of industry, traditional rulers, academics, policymakers, and stakeholders from across the Niger Delta and beyond.
According to close associates of the business tycoon, the book chronicles Chief Tonlagha’s life journey, business philosophy, leadership principles, and contributions to economic development in the Niger Delta and Nigeria at large. It also offers insights into entrepreneurship, resilience, nation-building, and the role of visionary leadership in driving sustainable growth.
The organisers disclosed that the choice of the prestigious ICC Abuja underscores the national importance of the event and the far-reaching influence of Chief Tonlagha’s work in business, community development, and youth empowerment.
“This book launch will not only celebrate Chief Mathew Tonlagha’s achievements but will also serve as a platform for intellectual engagement, inspiration, and policy dialogue on economic transformation and inclusive development,” a member of the planning committee said.
Observers believe the event will further cement Chief Tonlagha’s status as one of the most influential business figures from the Niger Delta, whose investments and philanthropic interventions have positively impacted thousands of lives.
With preparations in top gear, expectations are high that the February 8, 2026, book launch will be one of the most talked-about literary and leadership events of the year.
