Following the results of the just-concluded Nigerian election and the conduct of Nigeria's president Goodluck Jonathan, the Mo Ibrahim Foundation has taken notice and has sent out a statement, which has sparked speculation that the President might be in line for the Prize for African Leadership.

The statement on the MIF website reads as below:

"The news from Nigeria today is wonderful. Africa’s largest country has concluded a peaceful election process. Furthermore, the incumbent has already gracefully conceded and congratulated his successor – a first for Nigeria and a benchmark for other African countries to follow.

Today, we Africans are all proud of Nigeria and President Jonathan.

Thank you Mr President. If you are seeking a legacy, you have definitely achieved it.

Mo Ibrahim
Mo Ibrahim Foundation"
