IF JONATHAN WAS SO FANTASTIC THEN HOW DID YOU ALL VOTE FOR BUHARI OVER HIM?
We thought Jonathan was bad until we saw worse and worst. Sometimes bad can be good when worse and worst come after them. Right now Babangida, Abacha and Obasanjo are good, better and best respectively because of the bad-worse-worst performances of Jonathan, Buhari and Mr T. grin

PDP can present Jonathan, they were never serious contender before, they ve become and appendage of APC
Fielding Jonathan will be like fielding no candidate which suits their agenda of given Tinubu a free ride in 2027 ,JONATHAN BY LAW IS NOT QUALIFIED TO CONTEST AGAIN JUST LIKE GOV AYEDATIWA OF ONDO STATE CAN NO LONGER SEEK A SECOND TERM
A vote for Jonathan if fielded will be declared wasted votes by the courts the apc knows this but wants to lure parties to make the mistake and use their wole olanipekun to go nullify at the courts
I don't know why they keep bringing this GEJ news when he is not eligible to contest.I just went to confirm it,PMB signed the constitutional amendment in June 2018.

Who be this one?

Jonathan still has a constitutional provision of four years in Aso Rock.

Where were you when he ran in 2015?

LOL IT'S A NIGERIAN THING.......NO PRESIDENT IS EVER GOOD TILL THEY LEAVE OFFICE..... NIGERIANS NEVER SEE A CURRENT PRESIDENT AS GOOD AND EFFICIENT TILL THEY LEAVE OFFICE THEN THEY LABEL THE EX PRESIDENT GOOD THE CURRENT BAD

SAME WAY TINUBU WILL BE LABELED AS GOOD AND PERFORMING WHEN HE LEAVES OFFICE AND HIS SUCCESSOR AS THE WORST PRESIDENT NIGERIANS HAS EVER SEEN

I don’t think this is true given the fact that if Atiku contest as the only northern candidate against the other 3 southern candidates (SS, SE, and SW) Atiku will run away with northern votes with guaranteed win
No!

Atiku won't have 25% in 24 states. Tinubu will be the winner.

With the help of governors and senators in his camp at present.

Behind the emoji, we can sense the fear and trepidation. PDP fielding Jonathan will further dampen Tinubu's chances especially in the Southsouth and even in parts of the North. It would even be double jeopardy if Obi contests solo in another party. Where then will Tinubu's numbers come from? Just the Southwest? Laugh now and cry later.
No human nor spirit can stop Tinubu

Peter Obi remains the only reckoning forces for the ruling party, and Tinubu once they hear that name they begin to shiver 🥶, but they will systematically talk down the facts that they are afraid of this guy sweeping them out of office, that’s why you see lots of bloggers being paid even people of Reno Omokri and his likes are being contracted to constantly talk down about Obi we know all these political tactics 😂😂

If Obi return to PDP I swear winning sure for am
If obi returns to PDP 😂 he will still lose.

It's better to stay in ADC or labour jeje

Even if he doesn't, he will get the highest margin out of all four, thereby throwing the election into a run-off between him and first runner-up where a simple majority vote will now decide. The numbers are on the side of Atiku and numbers don't lie.

who tell you? He can not win election in ADC he has won election in Labour Party before which his chances was scuttled by….. I nor want mention names 😂 but PDP have a bigger platform and structure to project someone as popular as Peter Obi just that Atiku is hellbent on being president regardless of the fact that Nigerians don’t want him

He is not even a competent leader. If he had performed well, Buhari would not have had a slight chance of getting there. It was his failure that gave Buhari chance.

Which law is that? Una go just dey cap wetin una no know..the law doesn't affected GEJ. It was only those who came in after Buhari signed that law that can be affected. You think you know more than PDP as a party and it's chieftains?

shut up...where does the Constitution says Jonathan can't contest when he has already don that in 2013 moreover Jonathan is not interested

Comedy. Even Jonathan is not interested.

PDP should pick Portable as their candidate.
They now want GEJ to come and have his copybook blotted in a party that is currently in disarray?

GEJ: beware of the sinking ship!

Imagine a party where the chairman and all top members are informants of another party.

They should just present Governor Adeleke as candidate so that we can have some dancing entertainment during the actual election.

PDP is a dead party as long as Wike is still in PDP and APC. Wike will sacrifice PDP to APC for his personal gain. PDP is dead and will be buried in 2027

mumu, if Jonathan decides to contest now ,will he not be doing it after buhari
Besides PDP has never been good with the law, check their records, they are usually very careless and most of the time fall prey of technicalities
The court that interpreted abuja to be equal to a state, will now say before does not mean before buhari but after buhari
What's my own ,PDP can go ahead and field him that's their problem and Jonathan can go ahead and let them reduce from his elder statement, that's equally his problem

Keep deceiving youselfs.
Jonathan will never run against Tinubu lailai.
Dog no dey chop dog.
Bet anything you have with it .
This are just ways of dragging former Politicians in to what they never dreamt of about.

Who told you GEJ will gain the required 25% up North and secure the South, with GEJ on the ballot Atiku won't get the required 25% in the South and FCT. The North stand no chance in 2027. It's either PO, PBAT or GEJ if he contest
