Goodluck Jonathan May Run for Nigeria’s President Again in 2027
Reports suggest that former President Goodluck Jonathan may be preparing to enter the 2027 presidential race. There’s been growing speculation about a potential comeback, especially with signs that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is working behind the scenes to bring him back into the spotlight.
A close associate of the former president revealed that Jonathan has allegedly agreed to run, and talks have progressed significantly within the party. The source claimed that Jonathan is motivated by a desire to tackle the worsening poverty, economic hardship, and general suffering that has plagued Nigerians since the APC came into power in 2015.
It’s also reported that Jonathan has quietly consulted with key political figures, including leaders from the north and other influential players within and outside the PDP. One of those meetings reportedly took place last weekend in Minna, where he visited former military president General Ibrahim Babangida to discuss his interest in running for just one term.
Meanwhile, the PDP’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Ibrahim Abdullahi, noted that efforts are indeed being made to bring Jonathan back. He added that many Nigerians now regret voting him out and are calling on him to return and help steer the country out of its current struggles.
A viral clip has made its way online showing a police officer in Delta State shooting a suspect who had already been restrained.
It can be noted that the suspect was pleading, claiming he had been framed and deceived, and said he would lead them to the right place.
However, while he was pleading, the police officer shot him. The officer later stated that the suspect was armed with a gun.
It was later revealed that the police officer has been arrested, as it is against the law to shoot a restrained suspect.
It was reported by the Kogi State Government that 24 children were abducted from an orphanage home. It was shared that this happened on the 26th of April, Sunday, and gunmen were seen in the area that day.
The information was shared by the Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, who shared this sad news and described it as unfortunate.
“We condemn in strong terms the abduction of innocent children from an orphanage, the government is working closely with security operatives to ensure their safe return,”
Ghanaian media personality Afia Schwarzenegger speaks on the xenophobia issues occurring around Africans in South Africa.
She stated that Ghana is not the same as Nigeria and shared that if such issues happen to Ghanaians in South Africa, they will speak up and not keep quiet. She added that they will react.
“Ghana is not like Nigeria and we won’t hesitate to return the stupid favour.”
