An aide to President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has described his boss as a good man Nigerians should adore. He also said the President has laid a good foundation for change in the country since he assumed office in May 2010 first as an acting President and later an elected President in 2011.
Jonathan was defeated at the presidential election over the weekend by Muhammadu Buhari of the opposition party.
In a series of messages posted online, Omokri said even the President’s critics will later come to appreciate him and give him thumbs up.
Here are his messages.
"Let me say this loudly: I believe in the leadership of Jonathan, I'm proud of him. Under the rain under the sun I will be for Jonathan!
"What those asking us 'how market' fail to realize is that the work of healing and uniting Nigeria must start now. There's no time to gloat.
"Think back to elections held before Jonathan assumed power on May 6th 2010. That you are celebrating is because of what God did through him.
"Jonathan is a change agent. He ensured our freedom of information via the FOI Law and our freedom to choose leaders via credible elections.
"Even his most ardent critics will appreciate Jonathan eventually. He allowed freedom blossom and you can't put that genie back in the bottle.
"In Nigerian history, which leader ever called an opponent to congratulate him? How much more an incumbent? That's the greatness of Jonathan.
"Under Jonathan, Nigerians criticize govt without fear, elections are free & fair and amidst the challenge of terrorism he grew our economy.
"PGEJ's a man of peace. He puts God then Nigeria first. There's no bitterness from him. His supporters must take their cue from his behaviour."
