Because the law was just signed in 2018. Jonathan recontested in 2015 when that section wasn't in force.

u don't know anything. What if he had won 2015 election, what will u be saying? The only thing he can't do is to contest third term. Forget about spending years. If president like, he should die 2 month after he won, and vice take over, he will finish the tenor, and have right to contest on his own twice.

Talking as if we are not in Buharis Nigeria where anything goes again. If truly Buhari is the one pushing him to contest, he will contest and most probably win, falana will take him to court, case will still be in court, he will finish his term, and nothing will happen, this is Nigeria!

MisterGrace:
Seeking reelection alone has ruined the little reputation that Jonathan have been enjoying.

People now see him as an insatiable greedy man.

I wonder what he left behind that he wants to come back and carry.

Considering the destruction of things by Buhari, it will take decades for any meaningful project or initiative to be felt by the people.

Buhari has lowered the standard of governance that even randy and wicked people like Yahaya Bello wants to be president.

Jonathan should hang on to what's left of his image and live his life in peace.

If not for the abysmal performance of Buhari, Jonathan would have been burying his head in shame all the time.

Buhari really messed up this country.

It took that nepotic and clueless man over 6 months before he appointed ministers.

Without creating enabling environment, the wicked man shut all the borders and introduced killer policies that rendered many Nigerians poor and displaced.

It is very unfortunate that the best brains in Nigeria does not want to have anything to do with politics.

Imagine a below average and religiously blind guy like pantami as a minister in Nigeria.

Dude has not been a able to achieve nothing since appointment. It's been all about islam islam and islam.

They will all be remembered for the religious extremism, nepotism and wickedness they meted on the people.

At the bolded, is what I keep telling people, but instead of them to see reason, they accuse me of supporting Buhari.

In short, a lot of Nigerians have very short memory.
My submission, both Jonathan and Buhari are monumental failures

What if he had won in 2015?
Wouldn't that have taken his total tenure to over 9 years.
What's the difference between then and now?
Why didn't Falana complain then?
Why complain now?
I'm suspecting this Tinubu lawyer.

Falana's argument is brilliant but very misconceived. Am happy that he agreed that the constitutional amendment does not take retroactive effect. The constitution is simply saying you can't be have more than two terms of 4 years each. The question is whether Jonathan has had 2 terms of four years. Completing Yar Adua's tenure from 2010 to 2011 cannot count as a full term of 4 years.

With all due respect, we want to move forward. We may treat the east as minority but we all know our best bet at redeeming this country is Peter Obi. We need someone who understands how the world works. Don't our leaders even feel ashamed when they attend G9 summit?



We don't need leader that is more successful than the state he managed, and i believe you agree it takes a selfless leader to build a nation

It said if you take over from one person, you can't have more than one term.
