Former President Goodluck Jonathan turns 67 today, November 20, 2024, and several personalities extended their warm wishes with congratulatory messages.

Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago of Niger State described the celebrant as a humble and committed leader.

He applauded his contributions to nation-building, adding that the event served not only as a birthday celebration but also as an acknowledgment of his efforts in Nigeria and many other countries in Africa.

Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, congratulated former President Goodluck Jonathan on his 67th birthday.

According to Oborevwori, after his departure from office, Jonathan had rendered invaluable service to the nation and the African continent.

He lauded him for his remarkable accomplishments in international pro-peace mediations across Africa.

“On behalf of my family, the government, and the people of Delta State, I congratulate our great leader and highly respected elder statesman, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, on the occasion of his 67th birth anniversary,” he said.

The immediate past Deputy Governor of Delta State also celebrated Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR, former President of Nigeria, as he marks his 67th birthday.

Otuaro hailed Jonathan for his selfless leadership, commitment to peace, and dedication to Nigeria’s unity and progress. He highlighted Jonathan’s enduring legacy as a statesman and patriot, which continues to inspire millions across the nation.

Reno Omokri, former aide to Goodluck Jonathan, described him as the most humane and decent person he has ever met.

Taking to his X page, Omokri wrote, "Indeed, Dr. Jonathan proved that it is much better to gain honour at the cost of losing power than to gain power at the cost of losing honour. His ability to take pain and pleasure with equanimity offered serendipity to the nation at a time when we needed the panacea of peace and unity most urgently. And in that moment, he secured his place in the history of the greats. On his sixty-seventh birthday, it is my pride and honour, as well as a joy to me, to wish Dr. Goodluck Jonathan a happy birthday. May God bless you, and may you never diminish during your lifetime and in posterity. Happy birthday to the Face of Democracy in Africa.”
