No Invitation: PDP Denies Plans to Back Jonathan for 2027 Election
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has denied actively inviting former President Goodluck Jonathan to run for the 2027 presidency.
Party representatives clarified that while there has been widespread public support and calls for Jonathan’s return, any decision to contest lies solely with him.
PDP Deputy National Publicity Secretary Ibrahim Abdullahi stated that the party would welcome him as a candidate due to his track record but emphasized that they are not pressuring him to return.
This comes amidst debates on Nigeria’s current challenges under the ruling APC, with some viewing Jonathan as a viable alternative due to his previous economic and governance policies,
