Dr Dennis Otiotio, Chairman, Bayelsa State chapter of the All Progressives Congress , has said that former President Goodluck Jonathan is at liberty to join the party but he has yet to do so.He spoke against the backdrop of moves to draft Jonathan into the 2023 presidential race, saying that the APC in Bayelsa was not aware of Jonathan’s membership.
“The former president is not yet a registered member of APC. He is free to join any party of his choice. We are open and willing to receive him into our fold, as a political party desirous of winning elections; the only way to go is by admitting people into the party,” Otiotio said. A northern support group had on Monday in Abuja, purchased the APC presidential nomination and expression of interest forms for the former president to contest the 2023 elections on the APC platform.
However, in a statement by Ikechukwu Eze, Media Adviser to Jonathan on Monday night, the former president dissociated himself from the move and said that Jonathan did not authorise the purchase of the form. According to the statement, Jonathan was not consulted on the procurement of the APC nomination in his name and rejected it.
To join Silva as a subordinate or as a new entrant?
I trust politicians with their usual political prostitution but I pray this be different.
This statement is heavily pregnant
Is unbelievable and shameful that students,youths going to school is sitting like fools watching this nomadic government wasting their destinies.Revolt against this government for ASUU strike,in future government will pay lecturers very well.Schools start Revolution immediately
What’s the point of recycling old ppl?
Chairman, please update your register.
Can't they forcefully add his name to Membership List of the party just like they claim to get him a form without his consent?
Poor GEJ - him don become a pun. That will explain his excellent response of calling the whole thing “An insult”. It is truly an insult to him. Politics is truly a nasty (roforofo) game.
U go wait till 666 yrs 🙄
RUBBISH DECISION - GOING TO BACK ( ABUJA ) ,
They know the lies they told was too much so they are looking for forgiveness, instead of coming clean, they are coming with another subtility of luring GEJ to take power come 2027.
Joining a political party is optional, nobody should be forced to join any political party
Please let them stop waiting. Jonathan is now a global father of nations. An international peace keeper. What would his coming out add to his feather? Except to belittle him. He should back the most credible person in pdp and become the father of a New Nigeria. GEJonathan
We expect GEJ to key behind EQUITY, JUSTICE AND FAIRNESS!! To reciprocate the enormous support he continues to enjoy from SE. To support & build stronger South! GEJ should not allow Fulani to use him against his brothers!!
His registration can be in Abuja. Have you forgotten George Orwell - Animal Farm; that 'all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others'.
Nigeria will soon end up NEPA
APC is desperately looking for Jonathan Goodluck to help salvage the badluck Buhari brought to Nigeria governance , let them face their Tinubu and leave jonathan alone
A lot of people are looking up you No fall our handoo
Jonathan is no fool
You will wait in vain
Is a pity that this is happing here....
😂🤣😏😎
He go wait tire
We follow Una de wait
Be patient, he'll soon register
Waiting for nothing 😀😀
Fulani will rubbish u Goodluck Jonathan if u ever try to join their islamist political party APC. Others joined them and get screwed, Jonathan urs might cost ur life. Be warned.
Forget GEJ's media aide's denial; Jonathan is fully in the contest till the convention date; his denial is similar to Obasanjo's third-term agenda denial ; if it backfires, he will deny everything ab in·i·ti·o.
