The former Minister of Aviation and Chairman of Jonathan's Media and Publicity Campaign team, Femi Fani-Kayode says the former President, Goodluck Jonathan still has so much to contribute to the growth and development of the country if given the opportunity again.

Fani-Kayode made the statement on Monday at a meeting of former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Ministers organized by the Former President, Goodluck Jonathan. According to him, “You still have so much to offer this country. The future is great for us, for PDP and this country”. He called on Jonathan not to shy away from national issues but to always speak out against the socio-economic problems confronting the country.

The former President who used the forum to felicitate with Muslims faithful on the celebration of Eid-el-fitr called on Nigerians to live in peace and unity, stressing that no meaningful development can be achieved in an atmosphere of insecurity.

“We should always use this period to know that the unity of the country is paramount. We cannot develop as a nation, no matter how people demonstrate, and no president can do magic, if there is tension in the land. This is because immediately there is sense of insecurity in any country, investors will go back and when investors go back, of course, the economy will dwindle".

He noted that “what improves the economy is confidence and what makes investors to have confidence is peace. Nobody wants to invest where there is no peace, except those that invest in arms and ammunition. We should all pray and work toward that peace that is the only way we can grow our economy" he added.
