Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo has advised former President Goodcluck Jonathan to use his foundation, which is due for inauguration next year for service to humanity.
In a letter to Dr. Jonathan, which is a reply to an earlier one to him from the immediate past President intimating him of his plan to start the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation in the third quarter of next year, Obasanjo said:
“I have to commend you and your Foundation, Goodluck Jonathan Foundation, for the faith you continue to have in Nigeria. Maybe seeking how to be better and more serviceable to the nation and humanity is also a form of penitence and soul-searching to give conscience a relief and to show remorse.”
He added: “I wish you well as you continue to forge ahead with your activities in the coming months and years. If there is any area you feel I can be of help, you should not hesitate to call on me.”
His letter, dated October 12, 2015, is a response to the September 22 letter from Jonathan.
Jonathan had said, among others: “I will be devoting the rest of my life and energy to making the world a better place. I am currently finalising efforts to set up.
“The Goodluck Jonathan Foundation. More details on the work of the foundation will be available at the launch, which I believe should take place by the 3rd quarter of 2016.
“As I start this new phase of my life of renewed service to humanity, I look forward to your continuous support, counsel and cooperation.”
