Former President Goodluck Jonathan has called on leaders at various levels to focus more on the power of love rather than the love of power.
He made the call yesterday in a Facebook post, saying that has been his philosophy for several years.
The former president stressed that in the pursuit of power, nobodys ambition was worth the blood of any citizen. Rather, he stated that it was better to gain honour at the cost of losing power than to gain power at the cost of losing honour.
Dr. Jonathan explained living with such a philosophy has brought great peace to him, as well as his country, and appealed to all leaders facing challenging situations in government, at the polls, or in dealings with fellow political actors to prioritise love and honour in all of their dealings.
The post by the elder statesman followed the recent elections conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), including the governorship polls in Edo and Ondo States.
