Governor Ifeanyi Okowa extols former President Goodluck Jonathan at 60

    

   Delta State Governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa, has congratulated former Nigerian President, Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR, as he turns 60 years today.

    Okowa in a congratulatory message signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Charles Aniagwu, described Jonathan, the 14th President of Nigeria, as a hero of democracy whose administration deepened democracy in Nigeria.

   The Governor lauded the exemplary contributions of Dr Jonathan to the institutionalization of democracy and improvement of elections in Nigeria through his personal sacrifice and leadership by example.

   Governor Okowa noted that Jonathan’s place in global history was assured with his famous quote that "his ambition was not worth the blood of any Nigerian" which he aptly demonstrated when he made that all important call conceding defeat in the 2015 general elections.
