Former President of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has been confirmed safely removed from Guinea-Bissau amid the ongoing leadership turmoil.
The News of his safety was announced by Kimiebi Ebienfa, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs while speaking to newsmen in Abuja today.
Ebienfa confirmed that Jonathan had left Guinea-Bissau with the other members of his delegation on a special flight.
“Former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is very safe and out of Guinea-Bissau. He left with a special flight with members of his delegation, including Mohamed Chambas,” he said.
The former President had travelled to Bissau as part of an international team to observe the national elections. He, however, got stuck in the country after the Military took over Government in the country and shut down all travel routes.
