President Goodluck Jonathan did not receive advice from anyone before he conceded defeat in the March 28 Presidential election, his Special Adviser on Niger Delta, Mr. Kingsley Kuku, said on Tuesday.
Kuku spoke at the inauguration of a 500-seater lecture theatre donated by the Alumni Association of Ekiti State University, Ado Ekiti, and named in honour of Jonathan.
The President of the Alumni, Dr. Mathew Ayeni, said the president was a lover of peace, saying his election was a manifestation of this assertion.
Urging other African leaders to emulate him, Ayeni said, “Jonathan is undoubtedly a hero, not only in Nigeria’s history and by Nigerian standard but by international standard; this is more reason he is being credited as a world leader by international communities.”
According to Kuku, who is an alumnus of EKSU, Jonathan’s phone call to the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, saved Nigeria from a civil war.
He said, “That phone call saved Nigeria. Even the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, knew Nigeria was about to be made or marred.
“As results were still being collated, Mr. President was still busy with the problems of Nigeria, signing papers and working for the country.
“He saved this country; so many people predicted that we would have been at war by now. Even the so called advanced democracies had predicted 2015 as a year of doom for Nigeria.
“President Jonathan has scored another first. He did this without any pains, without any regret. We asked him why he did that without waiting for the final results to be announced. He said to us, ‘when things would happen, it must definitely happen. At such time you will need no advice from people, your adviser must be God Almighty.’ He didn’t have anybody with him when he made that phone call.”
Kuku described Jonathan as the luckiest president saying he rose from Deputy Governor to become President within 10 years.
He recalled how former President Olusegun Obasanjo persuaded Jonathan to become Vice President when he was thinking of seeking reelection as Bayelsa Governor.
“This man has never fought for anything but God has made them happened. I’m happy to be part of history of President Goodluck Jonathan,” he added.
Wife of Ekiti State Governor, Mrs. Feyisetan Fayose, commended the Alumni association for the remarkable feat.
She urged the Ekiti State University authorities to strive for higher quality education to place Nigeria in the comity of nations with advanced education.
The Vice Chancellor, Prof. Patrick Aina, thanked the association for giving back to the university, and specifically, Kuku for recently donating an ultra modern Student Centre and a bus to the Students’ Union.

“This man has never fought for
anything

That is why he doesn't value anything. If he had fought for presidency, he would have valued it more.

The fact GEJ is a man of peace all round cannot be challenged by anybody, including the worst of his political adversaries & critics. His actions will surely be reference point of note for Nigerian & African politicians tommorow.

So Jonathan thought of a move for a Soft Landing on his own?

#Cowardice

Which means GEJ knew he actually lost the election.
