Former President Goodluck Jonathan has said the nation would be able to overcome its numerous challenges if it could use some of the recommendations of the 2014 National Conference – as it “was still the best conference Nigeria ever had as a nation.”
Highlights:
- Jonathan, who spoke briefly as a guest of honour at the 60th birthday celebration of constitutional lawyer and activist, Mike Ozekhome in Abuja, said the recommendations generated by the conference were keys the government could use in navigating some of its challenges of nationhood.
- Mr Ozekhome used the occasion to launch a book titled “Nigeria we hail thee,” a collection of some of his experiences as a participant in the 2014 conference.
- Mr Ozekhome said his book outlines his experiences at the different discussions and sessions at the conference as one of the key participants including the key recommendations made at the parley.
Others who attended the event include Jonathan’s wife, Patience, a former Senate President, Ken Nnamani; ex-Secretary to the State Government, Pius Anyim; former head of the civil service, Stephen Oronsaye; senator representing Kaduna central, Shehu Sani; DAAR Communication boss, Raymond Dokpesi, and a host of others.
