President Bola Tinubu has congratulated former President Goodluck Jonathan on winning the 2025 Sunhak Peace Founders’ Award.
He stated that Jonathan’s winning the Sunhak Peace Award affirms his bold efforts in peacebuilding and promoting democracy in Africa and beyond.
In a statement issued by Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu applauded the former President for his consistent advocacy for peace, harmony, and communality, a patriotic endeavour that has earned him global recognition.
President Tinubu recalled the former President’s historic acceptance of the results of the 2015 presidential election and his peaceful handover of power to an opposition party, which boosted the nation’s democratic profile.
The President celebrated this landmark achievement with former President Jonathan and thanked the Sunhak Peace Prize Committee for recognising the efforts of those working hard to improve the world.
