Former President, Goodluck Jonathan, on Wednesday, November 2, finally embraced social media, now that the eyes of the world are no longer fixated on him.

His first set of tweets via his official handle, @GEJ_Official, was to appreciate Nigerians and the rest of the world for their good wishes on his 58th birthday.

I am deeply touched by the overwhelming support and kind wishes from
millions of people in Nigeria and around the world, on my last
birthday

freely expressed by many of you, #myfirstTweet

for which I am further encouraged to remain committed to the cause of strengthening democracy and good governance on our continent

I pray that the Almighty God blesses our efforts as we all aspire to
make our world a better place. GEJ #myfirstTweet

Be warned Jonathan- these Twitter streets can be mean.
