Nigeria's immediate past President, Dr. Goodluck
Jonathan, has expressed his gratitude to African
Sun Times on his emergence as its 2015
International Person of the Year. Jonathan took
to his Facebook earlier with a personally-signed
message on his verified page:
''I thank The African Sun Times for naming me
as its International Person of the year, 2015. I
am indeed humbled by this honour. When I think
about it, I understand why this medium may
have thought me worthy of such an honour.
However, I believe that my people, the Nigerian
people, are more deserving of this honour.
"We, the Nigerian people put to shame
naysayers and prophets of doom and in 2015,
we held a most transparent, violence free and
credible elections that transferred power from
one political party to another and from an
incumbent to the opposition, without rancour,
bitterness or strife. In the process, we proved
that nobody's political ambition is worth the
blood of any Nigerian or any national of any
country for that matter. That to me, is a most
worthy testimonial of the character of the
Nigerian nation and the resilience of our people
which is why I dedicate this honour to them.
May God continue to bless Nigeria and
Nigerians. GEJ."
