Goodluck Jonathan Advocates Leadership Training in Nigeria
On October 17, 2026, Goodluck Jonathan, the former President of Nigeria, called for improved leadership recruitment and training in Nigeria and Africa. This statement was made during a visit from members of the Central Planning Committee of the Solomon and Mary Lar Leadership Institute at the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation in Abuja.
Jonathan is scheduled to chair the public launch of the institute on November 24, 2026. He emphasized the need for Nigeria to reassess its leadership structures to enhance national development and draw lessons from other democracies.
Jonathan referenced the 2014 National Conference initiated by his administration as a significant effort to address national issues and improve governance. He praised the late Chief Solomon Daushep Lar for his contributions to Nigeria’s democratic development and acknowledged Professor Mary Lar for her leadership vision.
The delegation included notable figures such as former Deputy Governor of Kogi State, Chief Dr Philip Salawu, and Hon. Beni Lar, among others.
