One of the biggest fights President Tinubu may face is if GEJ accepts and then runs for Presidency. These are things to note. (1) GEJ's Capacity to Win: There is still soft spot for GEJ by many Nigerians even the North. GEJ is still liked by many Nigerians and if he comes out for Presidency, He may win. (2) Appeasement by the North: The North did not treat GEJ properly at a time, not everyone though; and they may have regretted such action. GEJ coming out may be a time for them to "reward" him good for what they did to him. (3) One Term: GEJ has just one term if he contests and wins Presidency. (4) Working Economy: During the time of GEJ, the economy was working reasonably, many or most things were far cheaper than now. This past profile might make many Nigerians want him again. (5) Failure of Party That Took Over PDP: Except APC buckles up on time and start doing some good and great things that citizens can take hold of. If the current trend of inability in APC continues, it may give GEJ big edge if he comes out for Presidency. |

Exactly. GEJ will win the election if he comes out like we are hearing so. @General Ditari. |

Jonathan does not have balls of steel. Like Fubara and Ambode, Jonathan will concede again without a fight. If as president he chickened from Buhari and Tinubu's threats, he will even concede on election day, knowing Tinubu can arrest him on trump-up charges. I still say it, APC did not defeat Jonathan in 2015. Jonathan defeated himself. He should go and rest. The APC results in Kano, Kaduna, Katsina and Bornu were over-inflated. Go and check those results and compare them to 2019, you will discover the frauds. In Kano alone over 500000 votes could not be substantiated. In Bornu where more than half of the state was under Boko Haram, where did APC get its votes in million? |

Validated:Buhari likely won 2015. So if GEJ truly felt Buhari won it then . |

Validated:you too much for this your analysis ,it's only a party no ready to win that will present Jonathan in an election that is not going to be fairly contested ,he will accept faith as usual But above all any vote casted in his favour this time around will regarded as wasted votes,all these noise are just distractions they don't mean it |

Politics does not work that way. Atiku wants to contest. Tinubu will contest. Amaechi wants to contest. Peter Obi wants to contest. El Rufai wants to contest. These figures each has a substantial number of supporters! Hence, the results will be broken and divided among them. If I'll advise Obi on this, he should accept Atiku's VP slot. That will give him a headstart. If I'll advise GEJ, he should stay off Nigeria's politics, because he has made a good name for himself already which he should not try to soil with Nigeria's many issues. |

surgical:you would've said so about trump in 2020 if he didn't bounce back in 2024. Truth is if Jonathan contests, tinubu stands no chance. |

Validated:You Nigerians deserve the kind of leaders you have. At this point in time you are still looking for a "Balls of steel president" instead of looking for a president who will revive our already dead economy & tackle insecurity as well as respecting the rule of law. You call Tinubu's Agbero gimmicks balls of steel? Where has it landed Nigeria? Your type just sit down in one hut in Ogbomosho and be typing thr@sh without traveling out of Nigeria to see the bad reputation this current administration is bringing on Nigerians. Even Ghana sef Don see us finish as 1cedi = N150. Were Nigerians migrating massively to Ghana during GEJ's tenure? Make una dey play oh! |

Validated:why are you igbos just angry since the mentioned of him contesting again. If obi was not contesting, you guys would have carry his matter on the head just like when he lost in 2015 than even his kinsmen the ijaws. I am very happy he is in the picture whether he agree or not and atleast some of our blind south south brothers will now known how you people are truly. Just imagine the desperation to become president at all cost. Obi presidency is already a failed project, wether Jonathan contest or not. It is the bitter fact that you guys are dodging. |

Ttalk:they are deeply in pains cos if Jonathan joined the race it will become three horse race between Tinubu, Jonathan and Atiku, that if some of northerners hide their agenda of power returning to back to them in 2027 and what to use Jonathan as a spoiler to Tinubu. If they decide to support Jonathan then it becomes two horse race between Tinubu and Jonathan. Obi is not in any of the equation and that is the pains igbos are nursing now. they have been calling Jonathan all manners of name. Any south south person who still think igbos are one with us, should examine is mental capacity. They fought Akpabio from being Senate president too. They are just afraid of the political rising of south south. |

If Trump can come back, then Jonathan also can. But he should not scatter everywhere like Trump oo lol anyway he’s known as a gentle guy. |

surgical:We prefer to waste our votes on Jonathan than give a tribal bigot called Obi. |

Validated:And the south south and south East result were not over inflated, right? If we compare the results of 2015 and 2019 for PDP in the two regions, won’t we see the same fraud that you’re talking about? Let’s even take everything down to the 2023 result that a lot of you have condemned as fraudulent. Let’s see if the fraud won’t even be more obvious. |

You people should just keep shut. Jonathan isn’t contesting anymore. Even if he does the case of his eligibility that he won in court in 2023 will be revisited and taken to another court then Supreme Court where he will be struck out. |
