Speaking at the launch of the Solomon, Mary Lar Leadership Institute in Abuja, Jonathan emphasized the need for leadership development to drive sustainable growth and development in Nigeria and Africa.
Jonathan’s call comes at a time when Africa is grappling with leadership challenges, with many countries struggling to address economic, social, and political issues effectively. The former president’s advocacy for leadership training is a timely intervention that could help address these challenges.
According to LEADERSHIP Newspapers, Jonathan will chair the launch of the Solomon, Mary Lar Leadership Institute, an initiative aimed at developing the next generation of African leaders. The institute will provide training, mentorship, and networking opportunities for young leaders from across the continent.
The need for leadership development in Nigeria and Africa has been a topic of discussion for many years. In recent times, various initiatives have been launched to address this challenge. However, Jonathan’s call for increased recruitment and training of leaders is a significant addition to these efforts.
It remains unclear how the former president plans to execute his advocacy for leadership development. However, his involvement in the Solomon, Mary Lar Leadership Institute is a step in the right direction.
