Chairman, ECOWAS, President Jonathan with Presidents Abdullahi Wade of Senegal and Blaise of Burkina Faso arriving for a special ECOWAS Summit in Cote D'Ivore in Abuja.
The book with same title focuses on the life story of Jonathan.
The two-hour documentary spans the entire life of Dr. Jonathan up till his assumption of office as the President of Nigeria. It features interviews with friends, family members and associates of Mr. President who had the privilege of interacting with him at various levels.
Perhaps, the most interesting parts of the documentary are the re-enactments of particular experiences in his life, especially his childhood.
According to a statement by Ono K. Akpe, Project Coordinator, the documentary will be premiered in January. It was shot at various locations across the country, beginning from Jonathan's homestead in the riverine community of Otu-oke, Bayelsa State.
Other locations include Port Harcourt, Rivers State, where a substantial portion of Mr. President's life story unfolded. The team also visited the town of Iresi, Osun State, where President Jonathan put in his mandatory one year NYSC service.
At the head of the documentary directing team are renowned Nollywood actors, Bobmanuel Udokwu and Patrick Otoro, as director and associate director respectively.
Others on the team include Blossom Obani of the NTA and Greggory Clem (production conslutants), Mr. Williams Otabil (producer), Olu Adekunle (associate producer), Tope Adebayo (director of photography & post-production) and Codera (technical consultant).
Akpe described the documentary as a must-see for those who have followed the Jonathan story with awe and disbelief.
