Former Kogi State Governor, Abubakar Audu has argued that the rare act of sportmanship displayed by President Goodluck Jonathan should earn him the prestigious Nobel peace prize.
Jonathan had shocked the world when accepted electoral defeat and subsequent congratulatory call to the president-elect, General Mohammadu Buhari.
According to the former Governor, the president’s heroic act averted a looming crisis that should have happened.
Audu declared this to journalists in Abuja at tge weekend.
His words, “I don’t want to pre-empt what Buhari can do but as far as I am concerned, President Jonathan deserves to be recommended for a noble prize for peace. You know what has been happening around Africa countries that once a leader is in position, he wants to stay put. They won’t like to relinquish position.”
