GOODLUCK JONATHAN SURPRISE NIGERIANS BY WANTING TO BE PRESIDENT NEXT YEAR ELECTIONS
Former Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan is seeking to return to office in next year’s election after switching political party, the BBC understands.
Mr Jonathan has joined the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) that defeated him in 2015 after five years in power.
A supporters’ group bought the nomination form on his behalf on Monday, continuing the trend of aspirants using proxies to purchase the form.
His decision to enter the race with the APC has come as a huge surprise to many Nigerians, especially those in his former party, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
