Yes, you heard Icheoku right that but for the magnanimity of President Goodluck Jonathan, who faced with international and domestic conspiracy to torpedo his second term ambition, which ambition was both within reach and realizable if he stubbornly wanted it that badly enough, decided not to fight it but to walk away. A sacrifice no known Nigerian would have readily made, but which only a man of peace, whose love for country and country men and women supersedes the allure of power, could make and made. It is a well know refrain of his that no office or ambition in the land is worth the shedding of any Nigerian blood and he walked his talk when it mattered most, putting his money where his mouth is. The result, this Easter, Nigerians are celebrating the crucifixion and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ in relative peace and tranquility, a situation made possible by President Goodluck Jonathan, who had the power and opportunity to say no to all those Nigeria-hating conspirators who wanted him out of Aso Rock by all means necessary; but instead he said nothing bad should happen to his country and country citizens and ponied up his second term presidency in order for peace to prevail.

GOODLUCK JONATHAN SACRIFICED, A JESUS WHO SAVED NIGERIA?
Icheoku says as Christians of Nigeria join other world believers to celebrate the sacrifice made by Lord Jesus Christ to save mankind from eternal damnation, it is good for them to also specifically remember the sacrifice made by Goodluck Jonathan to save Nigeria from a bloody conflict from which they might never have recovered from. Icheoku is emphatic that without this selfless sacrifice, there will be no Easter to celebrate in Nigeria as the country would have since March 29 been in flames, engulfing every tom, dick and harry therein. So this particular Easter, it should not only be about the Jewish Jesus Christ of Nazareth, but also the Jona of Otuoke, who gave it up in order to save Nigeria from an eclipsing conflagration, the end of which no one could have safely predicted or projected. Possibly Nigerians were saved from the American predicted disintegration 2015 by the awesome sacrifice made by this man and for this reason, he should be remembered by all with bountiful gratitude as the man who saved Nigeria.
Yes, you heard Icheoku right that but for the magnanimity of President Goodluck Jonathan, who faced with international and domestic conspiracy to torpedo his second term ambition, which ambition was both within reach and realizable if he stubbornly wanted it that badly enough, decided not to fight it but to walk away. A sacrifice no known Nigerian would have readily made, but which only a man of peace, whose love for country and country men and women supersedes the allure of power, could make and made. It is a well know refrain of his that no office or ambition in the land is worth the shedding of any Nigerian blood and he walked his talk when it mattered most, putting his money where his mouth is.

Therefore since the story of Jesus Christ was founded on sacrifice, the reason for this season, it is appropriate to similarly also acknowledge in this season, any other person who similarly made great sacrifice for the love of his people as Jesus's, for his love of the world. At least Jonathan could have consequentially stirred the hornet nest but chose not to; and for Nigeria's safety and in order to preempt all those vultures wishing Nigeria ill, some of who had predicted a disintegrated Nigeria by 2015, he surrendered and walked away. He boldly decided to quench the needless tension, purposely generated by these fifth elements and which kept Nigerians guessing and panicking until the last minute. Regardless of what pin-head haters of the president might wish to say or delude themselves with, a sitting president can cause much harm if he decides to and Nigerians have seen it happen before and nothing could have stopped it if he wanted. So today as the world is acknowledging the president's sacrifice, Icheoku prays that Nigerians would equally accord it the highest honor it deserves. Like Jesus resurrected in three days, Jona of Otuoke shall rise again, may be in three years time, prelude to election 2019 to lead in some fashion. So, admitted it is presently finished for his second term presidency ambition, but Nigerians and the rest of the world have not heard the last of the man from Otuoke, who walked away instead of plunging the country into eternal conflagration and this message is imperative this Easter. Happy Easter to all those celebrating and who believe in the story for the season.
