Former President Goodluck Jonathan grieved on Saturday that previous presidents’ tries to unify Nigeria, particularly those of the First Republic, failed because their agendas and policies were regional rather than nationalistic.

Former President Goodluck Jonathan grieved on Saturday that previous presidents’ tries to unify Nigeria, particularly those of the First Republic, failed because their agendas and policies were regional rather than nationalistic.

Nonetheless, Jonathan noted that despite the authority’s best efforts, centrifugal forces that strengthened ethnic interests won out over their efforts to position the nation for economic growth.

In addition, the former president compelled Nigerians to take caution when casting ballots, noting, “We must shift away from the politics of bread and butter.”

Jonathan stated this in his paper titled: ‘Lasting legacy: Key to Nigeria’s development issues, at the one-year memorial lecture in honor of the late Captain Hosa Okunbo in Abuja.

He claimed that the current generation of leaders inherited a country that had already become divided into three and then four regions.

Jonathan said, “I believe that the legacy of nationhood and roots of unity were weak at Nigeria’s independence and not much has been done since then to strengthen the base of the union.

“The decision to shift away from the regional arrangement to a national focus, where Nigerians will begin to see their country as their common heritage, needs a different orientation, planning, strategy, and adaptation.

“My charge to Nigerians is to be circumspect in the exercise of their voting rights. We must shift away from the politics of bread and butter and ensure that we do not elect leaders that will buy our conscience today and mortgage the future of our children and grandchildren. We should endeavor to elect only those that will leave legacies of unity, peace, and development.”

Not APC not Buhari's friends

Agbado and Cassava urchins will not hear.
After eating their future, they will be bleating like a goat in tether here and throwing tribal tantrums to innocent OBI.
Honestly, God really exonerated my tribe because we were never part of this inglorious regime.

The people he is talking about already know themselves they will soon come here to call Jonathan IPOB like I've been called many times because

I'm proudly Yoruba and proudly Obidient

To them I'm the only Yoruba in the whole world supporting Obi

Reject Agabdo and cassava

We know those he is referring to just as when we say, "Vote wisely"

He is right

Quite Impossible to talk about Good Governance without sounding Obidient. ✌️

Despite not mentioning names, APC and PDP supporters will soon come and attack him, all they know is stomach infrastructure they use in keeping people in bondage.

Tell them .... agbodo URCHINS dem

Hmmm

Peter Obi is not a saint but the worst of Peter Obi is ten time's better than the best of atiku and tinubu combined together.

Oga jona please tell them, because some 2000 naira idiots.,are ready to sell their future for nuts.
