Former President Goodluck Jonathan has explained that throughout his time in public offices in the country, he led conscience.
The former President stated this while delivering the keynote address at a peace summit organised by the Junior Chamber International (JCI) in Malaysia.
Jonathan said such inspiration is in line with his personal philosophy that “my political ambition is not worth the blood of anybody.”
He said this was the major reason why he decided to concede defeat to President Muhammadu Buhari during the 2015 presidential election.
“I can confidently say that in all my public life, I was inspired to lead by conscience. This is in agreement with my personal philosophy which I first proclaimed while running for the office of the governor of my home state Bayelsa in 2006, and re-echoed when I ran for the office of the president of Nigeria in 2011 and 2015,” he said.
