Former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan Giving Lecture On Democracy At The US Presidential Precinct {Photos}

Former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was pictured at the US Presidential Precinct giving lectures on democracy and democratic principles as part of his mission on African democracy.

On it's own part, as part of its mission to promote democracy globally, the Precinct convenes leaders from many different backgrounds, religions, and political systems. Following the examples of Presidents Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe, we at the Precinct are interested in exploring knowledge and ideas no matter where they may be found or who may promote them. In the words of Thomas Jefferson “For here we are not afraid to follow truth wherever it may lead, nor to tolerate any error so long as reason is left free to combat it”.

Opening his visit, President Jonathan was introduced to the Presidential Precinct Board of Directors at the University of Virginia’s Morven Farm. The reception was chaired by Jim Murray, Presidential Precinct Chairman. President Jonathan then took advantage of the opportunity to visit all the Precinct partnering sites including James Monroe’s Ash Lawn-Highland, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, and James Madison’s Montpelier. While at Monticello, President Jonathan was joined by local and international business leaders for dinner at Monticello’s Montalto. President Jonathan went on through a series of public and private meetings in which he expounded  upon his refined vision for the newly created Goodluck Jonathan Foundation. The Precinct enabled him to exchange experiences with those sharing his interest in democracy and his new mission to promote good governance.

The Presidential Precinct is a nonprofit that unites two of America’s premier universities, The College of William and Mary and the University of Virginia, William Short’s Morven, and the homes of three Founding Fathers, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, James Madison’s Montpelier and James Monroe’s Ash-Lawn Highland.
