“Once again, the German people have rewarded Angela Merkel for her leadership in Germany and in Europe by voting her for a fourth term. I congratulate her and her party, the Christian Democratic Union and wish them a very successful fourth term in office. It is my prayer that her fourth term leads to even greater improvement in the already good relations between Nigeria and Germany,” wrote Dr. Jonathan.
