I know the guy, he's a very ambitious and hardworking person. More blessings bro, congrats!

SkyBlue1:
Firstly, all these fake awards popping up here and there, please which other world leader has won this award AND made the effort to go and collect it? Nigerians have very low standards and don't know when they are being patronised by the west, to even suggest nobel peace prize for being a terrible president and then handing over power AFTER being beaten at an election is just sad, not irritating, not annoyinbg, just very very sad. And to suggest such in Europe of all continents. The African continent has a long way to go with such shallowand vapid mentalities.

Jonathan To Become First African Leader To Receive Diplomatic Circle Award In Geneva

Former President Goodluck Jonathan, who has recently become a global icon, will be honoured by the Diplomatic Circle in Geneva, Switzerland on Thursday, January 21, 2016.

Ex-President Jonathan has been selected for the honour for his democratic credentials and upholding human rights in Africa.

The former president is to receive his honour, at the group’s annual dinner in Geneva. He is the first African leader to be so honoured by the revered group of diplomats. At the dinner gala night, Jonathan will also deliver a keynote address.

Earlier in the year, a public policy organisation on African affairs, the Africa Political and Economic Strategic Center, recommended the ex-president for the Nobel Peace Prize.

According to the group, the peaceful way Jonathan conceded defeat to President Muhammadu Buhari in the general election deserves the attention of the Nobel Peace Prize committee.

“He may not have promoted fraternity between nations but he surely promotes fraternal peace among Nigerians by conceding power,” the group noted.
