Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has described former President Goodlcuk Jonathan as a hero of democracy in Nigeria, saying history will be fair to him.

Atiku made the assertion on Wednesday during a courtesy call on President Jonathan at his country home in Otueke, Bayelsa State.

Atiku in a statement by his Media Office said Jonathan’s exemplary decision to hand over the reigns of power without qualms was a historic decision that portrayed him as a democrat of unimpeachable credentials.

Atiku, while reflecting on Jonathan’s action that doused tension in the country at that time, noted that the situation in the country would have been different if Jonathan did not voluntarily relinquish power to the then opposition party.

“I want to say without equivocation that history will be very kind to you. As the democrat that I have always seen, I want to say you have truly excelled," the former ‎vice president said.

Jonathan in his response commended Atiku for appointing former Governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel as Director General of his Presidential Campaign Organisation.

Truly a Democrat

Hall of shame will be fair to the current leader

Actually history will be fair to GOODLUCK jonathan as the most dubious former president of Nigeria.

Hmmm, there is honour among thieves..

-truth burns

History will be kind to the hero of democracy in Africa.

GEJ is everything Buhari will never be and more.

A man who accepted political defeat as an incumbent president for the sake of giving peace a chance to reign in a country whose political climate was indeed very tensed as against the violent prone behavior of his opponent.

Words can never describe GEJ fully. This astute gentleman with benevolent attributes deserves to be properly honoured as a "hero of Nigerian democracy" In his lifetime and beyond.

God bless you GEJ.

And who would have treated the president and commander in chief of armed forces like an insane person.
What Jonathan did was commendable as it was not a very common thing in Africa.
