As former President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, celebrates his Sixty-fourth birthday, the Deputy President of Senate, Ovie Omo-Agege, has described him as a symbol of unity, peace and development of Nigeria.

In a goodwill message personally signed by him, Omo-Agege described Jonathan as “a statesman who is unshakably committed to promoting peace and upholding the unity of Nigeria in particular and Africa as a whole.”

Omo-Agege lauded his contributions to national development and his unalloyed dedication to nation-building, adding that more than ever before, Nigeria needs the contributions of great patriots.

According to the Deputy Senate President, Jonathan’s peaceful disposition and being the first Nigerian President to concede defeat to an opposition candidate, place him on a pedestal worthy of emulation by all Nigerians.

“By being the first President in Nigeria to concede defeat, you have written your name in gold. Without a doubt, you have shown that nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian. This is a lesson all politicians and their followers must draw from.

“As you celebrate your 64th birthday, my constituents and I join your political associates, family, friends and all your admirers in wishing you many more fulfilling years ahead,” Omo-Agege stated.
