President of Niger Republic, Mahamadou Issoufou, on Thursday held a closed-door meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan at the Presidential Villa in Abuja after which he commended the Nigerian President for his exemplary conduct during and after the March 28 presidential election in Nigeria.

In the farewell visit, Issoufou appreciated Jonathan for peacefully conceding victory to the President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari.

Speaking in French, the Nigerien leader told journalists after the meeting with Jonathan, that the outgoing President’s gesture was an evidence of his statesmanship, maturity and humility and the icing on the cake of his numerous contributions to the security, economy and infrastructural development of West Africa‎.

He continued that his host’s conduct after the election was a good model of democracy for West African leaders and a good legacy ‎worthy of emulation by other African leaders.

Noting that he has worked with Jonathan in the past four years at bilateral and multilateral levels and seen how he conducted himself in office, Issoufou said he was not surprised that Jonathan made immense contributions before leaving office.



He asserted that other heads of state in Africa were indeed pleased with ‎Jonathan for the good leadership quality he exhibited.

The Clueless must be wondering how temporary power is. Can you imagine that before the end of next week he will be refer'd to as ex-president? He must be cursing FFK, Okupe, SaTAN, Dokubo and lots others.
