A Nigerian, Muslim lady identified as Halima Waziri has tendered an unreserved apology to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan for condemning his administration.
The apology was shared on Twitter by Olushola-Shola in which Waziri compared the present state of democracy in Nigeria and to what it was before. This is coming up shortly after President Buhari won his second term bid and is to govern the country for another four years.
Waziri’s apology heaped praises on Jonathan who she described as a man of integrity and not ‘acclaimed integrity’. She further stated that she now realises that Goodluck was a true democrat and not a dictator.

Recall that President Jonathan was globally praised for conceding defeat by calling President Buhari to congratulate him on winning the 2015 presidential elections.
Therefore, I urge all Nigerians to look forward in hope as we fulfill the dreams of our founding fathers to 'build a nation where peace and Justice reign In that regard, we must make the election of Feb14th, 2015, a contest amongst brothers rather than a struggle between foes.
