Goodluck Jonathan Gets Recommended for Nobel Peace Award

Nigeria's former President, Goodluck Jonathan has been recommended for the Nobel Peace Prize by a public policy organisation on African affairs, the Africa Political & Economic Strategic Center (AFRIPOL).

The organisation noted that the will of Alfred Nobel, the progenitor of Nobel Prize stated that Peace Prize be awarded to whoever "shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses".

Accordingly the organisation held that the 'peaceful way President Jonathan conceded to President-
elect Buhari deserves the attention of Nobel Peace Prize committee. He may have not promoted "fraternity between nations" but he surely promotes fraternal peace among Nigerians by conceding power.'

LeadershipNG reports that the group maintained that the:

"concession speech by President Jonathan averted bloodshed, violence and imbroglio in the most populous country in Africa. This gesture by Jonathan [sic] buttressed to the whole world that Nigeria has joined the comity of civilized nations.

Nigeria can be said to have shown great leadership in Africa and made Africans in general and Nigerians in particular to comprehend that transfer of power does not need to be violent but rather peaceful as heralded by the outgoing president of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan.
