[left]President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday paid glowing tribute to a former Director-General of the National Agency for Food and Drugs Administration and Control, late Prof. Dora Akunyili, saying he and other public office holders were praying that their children be respected when they die like the deceased.Jonathan spoke at an emotional-laden requiem mass organised in memory of the deceased at the Our Lady Queen of Nigeria Pro-Cathedral, Garki, Abuja.

He urged the deceased’s children to be happy because their late mother’s works had given them an identity that silver and gold could not give.He said, “To my children, your mother was a very dynamic woman because her works and identity have given you what silver and gold cannot give you.“Yes, it might not translate to monetary rewards, but many will respect and want to assist you as her children because of her.

“We pray that those of us serving now, whether President, Vice President, or others, when we die, people will respect our children because of our deeds like Dora. So you have to thank God for that.”

He described the former Minister of Information and Communications as one of the few Nigerians who had made the country proud.“Dora was a role model, her dressing represented the Nigerian woman, her love, character, she is a lady that will hardly leave our memory. She was one of the few Nigeria‎ns that has made the whole country proud.

I condole you all,” he added.The President said what endeared public office holders to people were not their positions but their service to mankind.He said until when Akunyili took over the leadership of NAFDAC....[punchng]
