Former President Goodluck Jonathan on Friday said Nigeria’s recent transition of power qualifies the country to continue to lead Africa’s democratic leadership.
He said with elections over, past and present leaders and the electorate must work together for a better future.
“Elections are over, and so we must move forward…Yes, we have challenges economically now, but we still have what it takes to lead Africa,” Jonathan told State House Correspondents after he emerged from closed-door talks with President Bola Tinubu at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.
Referring to his active role in peace and diplomacy in West Africa and across the continent, the former President said he has been actively involved in regional dialogues, with plans to visit Kenya and Liberia in the coming days.
