Missed Juliet Ibrahim’s “A Toast to Life” Book Launch In Lagos ? Here’s The Scoop!

On Sunday, August 4th, Juliet Ibrahim held an event to mark the release of her memoir titled, “A Toast to Life.”

The book is a deeply personal narrative of her triumph over adversity faced at different stages in her life, and her journey to true self-love.

Hosted by Nigerian television host,Denrele Edun, the event was attended by friends, well-wishers, and industry colleagues including Honorable Abike Dabiri (represented by Mrs Yemisi Ibrahim ), Chief Dele Momodu, Elvina Ibru, John Ogu, Kabiru Rabiu, Gloria Ibru, Sujimoto, Praiz, Tewa Onasanya, Oge Okoye, Pretty Mike, Skuki, Eniola Badmus, Adenike Oyetunde, and more.

The author who’s also the African brand ambassador for Cintron energy drink entertained her guests to various cocktails made with Schweppes, finger foods, soft music from a violinist and of course the guests drunk the celebrities favorite champagne Luc Belaire.

One of the most notable parts of the event was when excerpts from the book were read by RMD, Charles Otudor, Noble Igwe, and Chigurl. The audience was held captive by the revelations that came to light, which many never knew.

For instance, how she survived three civil wars and how her cousin was killed while her family was trying to escape from rebels; how she survived rape and sexual abuse, the ups and downs of her previous marriage, and much more.

It was truly a memorable event. See photos from the event below:
