Former President Jonathan is set to contest the 2027 election under the PDP.
Newsone Nigeria reports that a former Minister of Information and Orientation, Professor Jerry Gana, has disclosed that ex-president Goodluck Jonathan will contest again in 2027.
The former Minister of Information and Orientation made this remark while speaking to journalists in Minna, the Niger State capital over the weekend.
According to Gana, former President Jonathan will contest in the next presidential election as the flagbearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Nigeria’s main opposition party.
Professor Gana said Nigerians had experienced life under two presidents after Jonathan and were now yearning for his return.
His words: “In 2015, former President Goodluck Jonathan said his ambition was not worth the blood of Nigerians,” Gana said.
“After him, another President ruled for eight years, and now another has ruled for two years.
“Nigerians have seen the difference, and the difference is very clear. Nigerians are now asking us to bring back our friend, former President Goodluck Jonathan.
“I can confirm that Goodluck Ebele Jonathan will contest the presidential election in 2027 as PDP candidate, and we should be prepared to vote for him to return as President again,” he added.
