Pics: Ministers applaud GEJ as he marks 5th year as Substantive President

Cabinet members this afternoon applauded Pres. Jonathan as he marked his 5th year as a Substantive President at the Federal Executive Council today May 6th. President Jonathan disrupted the order of the meeting immediately after the first stanza of the National anthem by calling on the council members to pray for someone whose birthday it was today.
“Today, we will not say the national prayer. Somebody is celebrating birthday so we will offer special prayers for him. Two very Godly people will pray, Nebo and Yuguda. Do you know the person?” When they could not answer, he said: “On May 6, exactly five years today, I was sworn-in as substantive President.”
The surprised cabinet members immediately broke into a round of applause. More pics after the cut

 

Jonathan became President on May 6th 2010 following the death of former President Umaru Yar’Adua and his declaration as Acting President through the doctrine of necessity introduced by the National Assembly.
