Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has poured glowing tributes on his predecessor, ex President Goodluck Jonathan.
Buhari said he holds the ex President, who was in power between 2010 and 2015, in very high esteem for accepting the outcome of the 2015 polls in good fate.
Speaking on Thursday night when he hosted members of the Kannywood entertainment industry to a dinner at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, IGBERE TV reports that president Buhari said by that singular act, Jonathan will always remain in his mind.
He said, “I’ll continue to hold the former president, Jonathan in high esteem as a result of that singular act.”
Speaking further, Buhari declared that the activities of the Boko Haram sect in the Northern part of the country would soon become a history.
He said: “It’s totally wrong for any believer in God to kill innocent people either in the Mosque, Church or the marketplace.
“You can’t be shouting Allahu Akbar (Allah is Great), Allahu Akbar, and killing innocent citizens and destroying property all in the name of God.
“It is either you don’t know what you are saying or you don’t even believe in the existence of God Almighty. God has nothing to do with injustice.
“So, now we are confronting them and by the grace of God, we will destroy them,” explains the president who will be facing stiff opposition from PDP’s Atiku in the coming months.
