Former president Dr. Goodluck Jonathan has said he would continue to work for the "advancement of democracy, peace and progress in Nigeria and Africa". Jonathan made this disclosure while thanking the Southern Christian Leadership Conference on the President's award given him in recognition of his leadership in human rights, social justice and the universal fight for freedom. In his words, Jonathan said, " I thank Dr. Charles Steele Jr, President of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in Atlanta, Georgia, and the executive of the SCLC for honoring me today. It was also a pleasure to meet Naomi King, the sister of the late American Civil Rights leader and founder of the SCLC, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, who was kind enough to attend the event and identify with the goals and aspirations of the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation. By this award, I am further inspired to continue to work for the advancement of democracy, peace and progress in Nigeria and Africa." The Southern Christian Leadership Conference, founded in 1957, is an African-American civil rights organization. SCLC, which is closely associated with its first president, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., had a large role in the American Civil Rights Movement.

Mr Ex-president, congrats on ur award, but the house u left behind is literally on fire...

Haters will keep ranting and hating out of frustration. They have become as confused as their president who has even started stealing paper where money is written in trillions, who knows what he will do when he sees the real cash.

Good. That is right. We pray that Biafran spirit shall not kill it IJN AMEN..
