History
The library is a resemblance of the presidential library system from the United States. The concept of Presidential Library started in 1939 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt of America who donated his official documents for national use. The country passed into law in 1955, the Presidential Libraries Act to formalize this project for national archive of all American Presidential documents and materials in office.
The Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library was conceived in 1998 to immortalize him and it was actualized after he became the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
