    The great amiable man of peace and love. You were severely insulted and critisized while in office. You endured and moved on. Your mandate was stolen, you congratulated them for taken away that mandate. They called you coward. You remained unshakable. Today, things have fallen apart and insecurity, broad day murder, collapse of every foundation of the nation and hunger took over and you are remembered. Long live Ebele Jonathan. Goodluck.
