Nigeria’s former Senator, Shehu Sani, declared on Monday that ex-President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan safeguarded Nigeria amid its most dire and crucial moments in the history of the country.

On Monday, November 20th, the former lawmaker in a series of tweets on his X handle and monitored by VerseNews, congratulated Jonathan on his 66th birthday, expressing his thoughts on the former Nigerian leader.

He characterized the ex-President as a symbol of pacifism, a champion of harmony, devoted patriot and a nationalist.

Sani’s tweet read, “There are four things ex-President Jonathan did that may not be repeated by any other President in the nearest future.

“He appointed  an INEC chairman he never knew and never met.

“He approved  the use of a data capturing system in the election that led to his eviction from power. He requested the opposition candidate to nominate one INEC commissioner.

“He disagreed with the outcome of an election but went ahead and congratulated the winner for the sake of peace and unity in the country.

“To the dooves, he is a man of peace, true nationalist and a patriot and to the hawks, he was a timid compromiser. GEJ saved the country in its most critical and crucial moments, Happy Birthday ex-President Goodluck.”

Jonathan held the office of Governor of Bayelsa State from December 9, 2005 to May 29, 2007; he then served as Vice President under the late President Umaru Ya’adua from May 29, 2007 to May 6, 2010, taking on the role of President from May 6, 2010 to May 29, 2015.
