At the wedding reception of President Goodluck Jonathan's foster daughter Faith which held at the International Conference Centre, Abuja, the president advised the newlywed(Faith & Godswill) on how to solve every matrimonial problem that might arise in the course of their marriage. In his words: “A day you are giving out your daughter out in marriage is a day of glorious sadness. My advice is that, today is a very

special day: we are all smiling and dancing but also note that there will be periods when the relationship will not work smoothly. That is a part of the life of husband and wife. There is no couple that will not have some moments when their faces will not be too bright, but it depends on how you reach out ……. and really find time to understand themselves.

"And we pray that you have a really happy married life and we will continue to pray for you as your parents. Our duties as parents is to continue to pray for you, to encourage you and if there are some issues you feel we can solve, you can tell us. But don’t depend on your parents to solve your matrimonial problems. If you have disagreement with your husband…., don’t always run to parents or get advice of your mother or father. Sometimes, they will not give you the best advice. Because your parents are analogue people while you are digital generation.”
