    Ex- President, Goodluck Jonathan Extols Late Boss, Umaru Yar’Adua

    Former President Goodluck Jonathan has paid glowing tributes to his late predecessor and ex-principal, Umaru Musa Yar’Adua on the 15th-year anniversary of his death.

    Yar’Adua died on May 5, 2010 after a protracted illness, barely three years into his four-year presidential term.

    Jonathan, who was then-Vice President, was sworn in as president to complete the term that terminated on May 29, 2011.

    In a statement he personally signed on Monday, Jonathan said, “Fifteen years ago, our nation lost a patriot.  A servant leader, with whom I shared a common vision for a united, inclusive and a just nation.

    “President Yar’Adua’s life was defined by service and selflessness. His account of stewardship, whether as a teacher, governor or president, was guided by hard work, patriotism, accountability, commitment to justice and adherence to the rule of law.

    “As President, Yar’Adua carried with him the burden of reconciling our people, fostering unity and mobilising citizens across the land towards building a nation of justice, peace and progress.

    “His tenure, although short, was impactful and progressive, a moment we remember for selfless service and deep commitment to the public good.”

    Jonathan noted that 15 years after Yar’Adua’s passing, he continued to stand as a reference for good leadership and a legacy of impact, peace and accountability.

    “Today, I celebrate my friend, brother and boss for his exemplary and sacrificial life of service, his genuine efforts in nation building, and his dedication to fostering an inclusive democracy anchored on justice, equity and national unity,” he added.
