The best interests of the country and the future of Nigeria have been well-served by this action," he added.
Vice-President Jonathan on Tuesday took over presidential powers from ailing President Umaru Yar'Adua, who has been hospitalized in Saudi Arabia since last November. He will act as President until Yar'Adua can resume his duties.
