By
The good deeds of immediate past President of Nigeria has not gone unnoticed as he continue to receives commendation both from Nigerians and international figures like former President of the United States of America, Jimmy Carter. Last week, the former President of Nigeria, Alhaji Shehu Shagari always pured encomium on Dr. Goodluck Jonathan as a leader of leaders in his birthday wishes to former President Jonathan. Below is one of such words of commendation from a Senator from Jonathan's Constituency, Senator Ben Murray Bruce. It  reads:

"Recently the world was looking for someone with the moral authority to promote democracy in Tanzania. Their search led them to Jonathan"
"The Guardian and Daily News of Tanzania urged Tanzanian leaders to emulate Jonathan. The world appreciates what Jonathan did in Nigeria"
"Jonathan built schools for Almajiris that had NEVER had schools. He increased federal workers minimum wage & ensured they were always paid"
"Jonathan ensured Nigerians could vote & be voted for in genuine free and fair elections. Even Jega testified Jonathan did not influence him"
"Jonathan has his own faults but he did achieve great things for Nigeria and it is unjust to ignore all he did and blame him to the world"
"There were problems in Nigeria when Jonathan suddenly became President. He didn't blame the military or Yar'adua. He just tried his best!"
"Hate him or love him, Jonathan has left giant footprints in eternity's sands of time! No eraser is strong enough to make them indelible"- Ben Murray -Bruce.

There is really nothing special about Efren except his unparalleled dedication to reforming kids in their poverty-stricken community in Cavite, Philippines.Efren Peñaflorida, Jr.’s sanity was questioned when people first saw him going around the neighborhood pushing his improvised cart loaded with food, books, paper, pencils, and other things you would commonly see in a classroom.
