2027: Jonathan meets Tinubu in Aso Villa

‎Former Nigerian President, Goodluck Jonathan, on Sunday, reportedly met with President Bola Tinubu behind closed-door in Aso Rock Villa.

‎

‎According to The Nation, the meeting appeared to have been private, as no statement was issued afterwards.

‎

‎The former president has been mum amid speculation on his purported political comeback to join the 2027 presidential race.

‎

‎Recall that the Tanimu Turaki-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP said on May 30 that Jonathan’s name and credentials were submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC as its candidate.

‎

‎However, Jonathan’s name was conspicuously missing from the list of 19 presidential candidates released on Saturday by the electoral umpire.

‎

‎Although the details of the meeting with Tinubu cannot be ascertained at the moment, it may not be unconnected to the coming elections.
