What stupid retirement. Mahama of Ghana lost power to Nana Akuffo Addo same time GEJ lost to APC/Buhari, Mahama tried after Nana Addos first time and failed then tried again after Nana Addo tenure and won so what has been stopping GEJ all the while from fighting for his position again? He should stop being a sissy and put up a fight

Obidients ate hyperventilating on this thread. Obi might have just defected himself out of the equation. He was too eager and was not strategic. Kwankwaso is in the NDC in anticipation for a Jonathan/Kwankwaso ticket.

Antoeni:
Peter Obi Will Step Down for Goodluck Jonathan if He Joins. That Has Been The plan All Along. Kwankwaso Will Deputize GEJ in NDC.
Keep spreading the ignorance across NL.

GEJ the good man loved by South south and south east, hated by north and south west upon all the good things he did for them. Oga, you time had passed, remain a good stateman and enjoy your retirement before they scatter your good name which you had made for yourself. Its time to deal with the cocaine sniffing v^gabonđ in aso rock.

I practically and literally learnt what ‘cluelessness’ meant in Jonathan tenure

Is that a prayer point or a statement of fact? Why shouldn't he? Is he not Southern enough? You don't know if he would contest or not. Bold of you to assume he had no premonition of the crowd that gathered at his residence today.

Key word you used “Sissy” he’s acting like one and not necessarily what Nigeria needs.

Mumu man, you better remain in your village and enjoy your Atabala fish in peace. We were calling you in 2023 to come rescue the country, a period you would have seized to win and avert this calamitous plague called Tinubu but you didn't agree.

Peter Obi is the new president come 2027.

APC databoys who doesn't like my submission on this matter are free to do the needful. Kp..

Fear ke, first of all I’m not an obedient or Tinubu supporter so I don’t have anything to fear, the thing is GEJ is too soft and not necessarily what Nigeria needs at the moment.
Re: “I Will Consult Widely” – Goodluck Jonathan Responds To Fresh Calls To Contest by Raxxye(m): 2:06pm On May 07
He just spoke those words so they'd leave him alone and disperse to their houses.

He has no intention whatsoever to contest.

Not contesting and try to take back what was his is what make him a sissy actually.

You know he’s weak and soft, handing over power to APC is the start of him being one.

Goodluck made Diezani and Dasuki. How is he different from the one governing today?

When he clearly lost an election, you wanted him to hold on to power? You people don’t even love this man at all abi you think Obama wouldn’t have “Gadaffid” him that year if he mistakenly fail to relinquish power? 🤣🤣🤣 You people don’t even know what’s going on at all. If GEJ had failed to relinquish power then, I can assure you someway somehow, the Obama administration would have destroyed him. You guys are not aware Obama administration wasn't his friend at all?

If this man contests, it will be at Tinubu's behest, to further split votes of those who will not vote APC.

The PhD who seemed dumb, with a crass, rough-hewn wife, who just existed in the state house, until the vultures ousted him ON HIS OWN WATCH and here we are!

He should please rest and allow us see where we are.
If GEJ contest , that will seal tinubu fate as a one term president .

The north will rally round him and south . The contest will be between GeJ Vs Peter Obi.

Anybody who sees this man as the solution is part of the problem in Nigeria.

With every information about what this man did and yet, some shallow minds still believe he is the solution, then Nigeria is in a big problem.

Until we realise that the solution to Nigeria's problem is none of all the recycled politicians

Really? You think this large crowd were mobilized and journalists invited to cover this event just for talk show. It is a prelude to something big. You suppose to know politicians nah. Anyway Saharareporters have just reported that he will join the Presidential race tomorrow Friday.

Unless Obi can decamp from NDC before Sunday because NDC is fielding Jonathan/Kwankwaso as their flag bearers.

I don't think anyone would vote for him after allowing the inept Buhari to ruin this country
don't mind him. I wonder what he's coming back to do. When we needed him most, he failed us
Re: “I Will Consult Widely” – Goodluck Jonathan Responds To Fresh Calls To Contest by Negelzi: 2:23pm On May 07
Ex president Goodluck Jonathan,is a wise man and his response depicts that position.
Fact; Ex President GEJ, will no longer contest future elections, though not restricted by constitution or legal grounds,but him,wife and family has made that wise decision.
He is currently an elder statesman, apolitical and will be playing an advisory roles that will reshape our political landscape,youth engagement and encouragement, national development, economic growth etc.

No time again bro. Na since last year you for declare interest make Obi step aside. No it's too late. Obi go still split the votes make e for still favour APC.
GEJ is consulting PBAT. Objective: to lower the votes of Peter Obi .
