Image result for Wike an “outstanding leader”
By Dirisu Yakubu ABUJA – Immediate past Nigeria’s President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan has felicitated with Rivers State governor, Mr. Nyesom Wike on the occasion of his 50th birthday. Dr. Jonathan described the governor as an outstanding leader who has contributed his part in the development of the nation.

 In a goodwill message issued by his spokesperson, Ikechukwu Eze, the erstwhile President lauded Wike’s leadership style even as he described him as a listening governor.


“You are a notable democrat whose responsive and transformational pattern of leadership positively affects the lives of your people. “As the peoples’ governor, you have made a mark for yourself, by shunning the convenient highway of political acceptability and opting to spend more time with the good people of Rivers State, listening to their hopes and aspirations, and attending to their every day needs. “Through your visionary leadership, you have raised the bar in accountable governance with the unparalleled delivery of social and physical infrastructure; a commitment that have earned you a fitting epithet, ‘Mr. Projects’. “Your Excellency, I pray that God Almighty will preserve and protect you as you continue to improve the fortunes of Rivers State and transform the lives of the people,” the statement read.

Obasanjo recently advised Nigerians not to re-elect Buhari in 2019 . But the group in a statement signed by its National President, Alhaji Yerima Shettima, on Friday, slammed the ex president for the comment. “For quite some time, former President Olusegun Obasanjo has turned himself into a self-appointed messiah in the efforts to define the political and democratic future of this country. “And the result of this meddlesomeness by the former president has been disastrous for the country,” the group said. AYCF said that it is disgusting that the former president is still bent on interfering with Nigeria’s leadership problems created by people like him.
