Former Minister of Information and Orientation, Professor Jerry Gana has revealed that former President Goodluck Jonathan will contest the 2027 presidential elections.

Gana made the disclosure in a chat with a journalist in Minna, the Niger State capital.

According to him, the chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will contest the next polls under the umbrella of the party.


According to him, Nigerians had experienced life under two presidents after Jonathan and were now yearning for his return.

“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.
