Former President Goodluck Jonathan has declared that he holds no grudges against anyone over past political actions taken against him.
Jonathan stressed that forgiveness and reconciliation remain essential ingredients for Nigeria’s political stability, national cohesion, and development.
He made the remarks on Wednesday during a requiem mass in honour of former Minister of Agriculture, Chief Audu Ogbeh, held in Abuja.
Paying glowing tribute to the late statesman, Jonathan described Ogbeh as a man of humility and forgiveness whose values mirrored his own.
“Chief Ogbeh was a man who did not seek revenge. He believed the past should be left behind and that we must keep moving forward,” Jonathan said.
“In that sense, he was just like me. If you hurt me today, I will forgive you. I don’t carry grudges against anybody. I believe the past is past, and I move on.”
