The former Nigerian president, Goodluck Jonathan, has in very clear words, condemned the United Nations for being incapable of ensuring world peace and security, especially in West Africa.
He was speaking in Greece during the 15th anniversary of the dialogue of civilization at Rhodes under the theme “Multi-polarity and Dialogue in Regional and Global Development: Imagining Possible Future”The former Nigerian President said peace in the world can only be achieved via constructive dialogue and the UN must ensure that it keeps the flag of peace flying up high by respecting it principles.
He criticizes the UN for failing to put an end in the Syrian conflict, Iraq, East Asia and in other African nations like Cameroon recently. He said the failure of UN to resolve these crises is evident that the world body has failed in resolving conflict.
According to Goodluck Jonathan, UN has to be reformed so as to solve modern day crisis especially crisis in West African countries like Cameroon, Togo etc. He added that if regional bodies like ECOWAS, AU, are empowered it will help the UN in maintaining peace and security.
