Ex-President Dr Goodluck Jonathan has described former Head of State, Gen. Yakubu Gowon as a forthright statesman who has continued to work for the unity of the country.
Jonathan stated this in a goodwill message issued by his aide, Ikechukwu Eze felicitating with Gowon who turns 84, today, Friday.
He also extolled Gowon as a leader whose worldview has been liberal, guided by those ideals that promote Nigeria’s development.
