Former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan along with his wife paid a visit to Bayelsa State after marking the October 1 Independence Day in Abuja.
Dr. Jonathan, who has been dubbed by leading international organisations as the icon of Democracy in Africa and the continent’s foremost Statesman, had in his October 1 Independence Day Message posted on his Facebook page urged Nigerians to be patriotic and work on building Nigeria.
The Independence Day message of Dr. Jonathan which in part read thus: “I call on all my beloved countrymen and women to remain patriotic by praying for and supporting governments at all levels to build up Nigeria. Remember, do not think of who will make Nigeria great. Instead, think of how you will make Nigeria great. May God bless Nigeria and may God bless her people,” was personally signed with his trademark initials ‘GEJ’.
Dr. Jonathan was received at the Port Harcourt International Airport by close family members and well wishers with whom he exchanged pleasantries and thereafter departed for Bayelsa State.
