Former Nigerian President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan took on his facebook page to commend and bless Nigeria Youths to mark Democracy Day in the country. On his post he listed out some great achievement done by the youths, He said " Nigeria Youths single handedly created Nollywood, the third largest movie industry in the world, can be expected to return the favour and make Nigeria proud.

The Post read:

On this Democracy Day 2018, I want to urge all Nigerians to pray for peace in Nigeria. We need peace in Nigeria. And it is up to you and I to ensure that our National Motto: Unity and Faith, Peace and Progress, is a reality and not just mere rhetoric. I urge Nigerians to understand and accept that nobody’s political, economic, religious or social ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian.

As this year’s Democracy Day falls on the holy month of Ramadan, let me seize the opportunity to also extend Ramadan greetings to the Muslim Ummah. As you pray for Nigeria, I join my faith with yours and look forward to our prayers being answered by Almighty God.

There are many opportunities and crises on the horizon, but we must have the mentality of seeing the opportunity in crisis rather than the crisis in opportunity.



We have one of the fastest growing youth population in the world and we must see this as an opportunity, not a crisis.

As I said previously, Nigerian youths ARE NOT LAZY.

What our youth need are opportunities to showcase their positive talents. They need leaders who believe in them and show affirmation for them through their words and actions.

Democracy is a game of numbers and the youths have the numbers. More than 50% of our population are youths. If we develop policies, programs and projects to empower the youth of Nigeria, the Nigerian youth, who single handedly created Nollywood, the third largest movie industry in the world, can be expected to return the favour and make Nigeria proud.

And they are already making us proud both locally and internationally.



Nigerian youths are showcasing their brilliance around the world and I want to make special mention of Ukoma Michael, who at thirteen years of age invented a battery operated fan that lasts for 19 hours on a full charge. This ingenuity domiciled in Michael should be encouraged by our leadership.

Internationally, Princess Elizabeth Bright and Ramota Tele Lawal, two 22 year old Nigerian youths who in May of 2018 became the youngest elected councillors in the United Kingdom, have made us proud. Very proud indeed.

These youths are the epitome of the hardworking, talented, innovative and ambitious Nigerian youth who make our nation respected in the community of nations and give us hope for tomorrow and national pride for today.

Rather than discourage them with our words and actions, we as leaders must give our youths hope by using our language to draw out the very best in them. We must accept that nations only grow when elders plant trees whose shade they know they may never personally enjoy. Leaders must think of the next generation and not just the next election.

While we celebrate Ukoma, Elizabeth and Ramota, I know that there are perhaps millions in Nigeria who are equally brilliant and only need the right enabling environment to unleash their creative genius. They are my inspiration on this Democracy Day. They are the reason why I believe in the continued corporate existence of this great nation founded on justice, equity and freedom.

Happy Democracy Day. God bless you and your family and may God bless Nigeria. GEJ.

Uncle Joe, save ur breathe cos it's obvious Nigerian youths aren't LAZY as enunciated by that bastard idiat named Buhari the stark illiterate..

Jonathan can take a dive in the lagoon for all we care.

Sir, why did u hand us over to this government just like tht.
Why did u betray us.
Theres nothing fair in this life, why were u fair.

Did u know Bubu will not do same?
Did u know he has rigged 2019 already.
It can only take divine intervention for our votes to count.

The inec, the court, military, police and all d powers tht be are with and reports to him.
Even our senates have no more powers..

Why did u betray us.
U dnt want our blood to spill, but it was better it got spilled then once n for all than the continous spilling tht goes on everyday now.
The total blood spilled since u surrendered till date are 100 times over than the ones tht would hv been spilled cos of election violence.

Sir why did u do this, why...

Youths now are the bane of democracy.
Check my profile for nothing

Message of hope from a leader of goodwill.

Don't worry brah, I feel your pain especially when you have to compare him with the incompetent illiterate you are backing.

Bubu makes it easy for the opposition to score points. And they're good points, too.

We are listening, Jona.

We've not forgotten your party's thievery, though.

GEJ, the real president of Nigeria and not that moronic dullard.

lol...I just came to see d number of spaces booked and I was not disappointed
