An Open Letter to Former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR
Your Excellency,
With profound respect, Eagle Eye TV writes this open letter to you as a voice of concern and responsibility, recognizing the enduring value of your legacy of peace, humility, and statesmanship.
In recent weeks, there have been widespread allegations and speculations suggesting that the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is considering offering you their presidential ticket for the 2027 general elections. Sir, we feel compelled to share a candid word of caution and encouragement from the standpoint of patriotic Nigerians who hold you in the highest esteem.
Your Excellency, the reality is clear. When you contested for re-election as the sitting President of this country, you did not emerge victorious. That outcome was not a mark of weakness on your part but a reflection of the political circumstances of that time. To accept to contest again now, at a time when you are no longer in office, risks diminishing your hard-earned dignity and exposing you to ridicule from those who may not wish you well.
History already remembers you favorably. You are celebrated as the President who conceded defeat in 2015, putting the peace and unity of Nigeria above personal ambition. That singular act saved this nation from chaos and bloodshed, and it elevated you to the rank of one of Africa’s most respected statesmen. This is a legacy no office, no ticket, and no party can improve upon — but wrong decisions could undermine.
With due respect, those who are urging you toward the 2027 race are not acting in your best interest. They presided over the destruction of this nation’s foundations and should be the ones to repair what they scattered. They seek to use your name as a scapegoat, but sir, you deserve far more than to be a tool in their political calculations.
At this stage, Your Excellency, you are far greater than partisan politics. You are a unifier, a global ambassador for peace, and a voice of encouragement to millions who still believe in the possibility of a greater Nigeria. Your name already commands international respect, and your statesmanship is the kind that history rewards beyond measure.
We therefore appeal to you: do not allow yourself to be drawn into a struggle that will not add to your honor. Continue to stand where God has placed you — as a father figure, a peace ambassador, and a moral compass for our nation and the African continent.
As you once famously declared: “My ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian.” Today, Nigerians still celebrate you for that principle. Please, sir, protect that legacy.
May God bless you richly and keep you as a blessing to Nigeria and the world.
Respectfully,
Eagle Eye TV
Voice of Truth and National Conscience
