You will never know what you have until you lose it, you don’t know how great you have become in the eyes of your critics – Ndume tells Jonathan
TRACKING____Senator representing Borno south district, Ali Ndume has described former President Goodluck Jonathan as a man who has become great in the eyes of his critics.
The lawmaker who was recently granted bail after five days in detention over Abdulrasheed Maina, former chairman of the Pension Reform Task Team (PRTT) whom he stood as surety for jumping bail, made the comment at the launch of a wellness centre in Abuja.
Ndume averred that Nigerians don’t value what they have until they lose, and further thanked Jonathan for ”changing the political culture and landscape of the country. ”
“I must confess, as people call me stubborn person, I’m also a stubborn person. I feel I need to make this testimony here, and also appreciate Mr.(former) President, as they say you will never know what you have until you lose it. I will stop there.
“For this country, I think Nigerians know that they don’t value what they have until they lose that thing. We thank God for your life and you have changed the political culture and landscape of this country.
“You don’t know how great you are in the eyes of those that were skeptical, those that don’t know you, those that didn’t come close to you. But now, honestly, I am one of those that used to criticize you very well, but I will say it was constructive move.
“He wanted to be president but Nigeria being what it is, it was a different thing entirely. Like I said, he left a landmark on this country.”
