The Labour Party has extended warm felicitations to former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR, on the occasion of his 68th birthday, praising his enduring contributions to Nigeria’s democracy and continental peacebuilding efforts.
In a goodwill message issued by the Interim National Chairman of the party, Senator Nenadi Usman, PhD, the LP described Jonathan as a “boss, friend, and confidante”, noting that his leadership record continues to resonate more than a decade after leaving office.
Senator Usman stated that as Nigeria confronts recurring leadership challenges, Jonathan’s tenure has become even more appreciated for its “exemplary stewardship, sterling records, and exemplary service to the nation.” She added that the former president’s commitment to democracy, peace, and stability across Africa has earned him consistent global recognition, particularly through numerous high-level peace mediation engagements and election observer missions.
The Labour Party prayed for God’s continued blessings upon the former president, including sound health, renewed wisdom, and sustained grace as he continues to contribute to national and continental development.
On behalf of the entire party, Senator Usman wished Jonathan a happy and memorable 68th birthday.
