Former President Goodluck Jonathan has turned a hero than people chose to admit. this is because a public policy organisation on African affairs, the Africa Political and Economic Strategic Center (AFRIPOL) has recommended Jonathan for the Nobel Peace Prize.
AFRIPOL said that the will of Alfred Nobel, the progenitor of Nobel Prize stated that Peace Prize be awarded to whoever have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.
It then explained that the peaceful way President Jonathan conceded to President-elect Buhari deserves the attention of Nobel Peace Prize committee.
“He may have not promoted fraternity between nations but he surely promoted fraternal peace among Nigerians by conceding power,” the group said.
The group added that the concession speech by Jonathan averted bloodshed, violence and imbroglio in the most populous country in Africa.
“This gesture by Jonathan [sic] buttressed to the whole world that Nigeria has joined the comity of civilized nations,” it added.
