He said Jonathan sacrificed personal ambition for the greater good of the country, and successfully winning the hearts of Nigerians and the world as a man of peace, by carrying on his legacy of truce and amity to many countries.

Gbagi who created one of the Federal Universities in Otueke, Jonathan's country home, joined the family, particularly his wife, Patience, and mother, Eunice, in celebrating another milestone in the former President’s life.

He extended warm greetings to his former boss and family, praying that the Almighty God would continue to sustain them in good health and all round wellbeing.
