On behalf of the Federal Executive Council and all Nigerians,
President Muhammadu Buhari warmly felicitates with former President
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan on his 60th birthday, November 20th, 2017.
President Buhari joins members of the Peoples’ Democratic Party
(PDP), professional colleagues, associates of Dr Jonathan, and his
family in celebrating the unique history of the Nigerian leader, who
within a short period rose from being a Deputy Governor, Governor, Vice
President to becoming Nigeria’s President for six years.
President Buhari believes Dr Jonathan’s foray into politics and ascendance to the highest political office in Nigeria from a humble
riverine background testifies to the greatness and inclusiveness of
Nigeria’s democracy, and serves as an invitation to all those with
interest to add value to the nation.
President Buhari prays that the almighty God will bless Dr Jonathan
with good health, wisdom and strength to continue serving the country.
