It Is Better To Lose Power Than Lose Peace - Goodluck Jonathan Reacts To Insurre by Blogger2021: 3:33pm On Jan 07, 2021
Former Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan who conceded to President Buhari has reacted to the chaos incited by Pro-Trump supporters at the United States Capitol yesterday January 6

Jonathan in a statement he released, said it is better to lose power at the cost of gaining peace, than to gain power at the price of losing the peace.

He further said it is never too late to reject the venom and inject the serum of peace. The statement read; 

“I have repeatedly said nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any citizen, in any part of the world. Absolutely nobody.

 “Again, I reiterate that it is better to lose power at the cost of gaining peace, than to gain power at the price of losing the peace.

“As a leader, one must not just look unto one’s own interest, but the interest and the good of society.

“It is never too late to reject the venom and inject the serum of peace. It is necessary to state that the highest purpose of leadership is to bring people together, even those that do not share in your philosophy.

“And you do not need an office to do that. All you need to achieve that height of leadership is conscience. Let us be men of conscience at this hour.”

I guess next time electoral bodies would be transparently unbiased.

But I don't think it would suddenly all be over.

GEJ, you are a great man. If you had forced your self to remain on power, you would have now being but the mark you created by this ideology would outlive you. Unborn generations would meet it and still celebrate you.

This one will not let us hear word since 2015.

You lost election and concede, what's the big deal? If you didn't concede, you would have ended up in the Hague and sent to prison like Gbagbo of Ivory Coast.
