Past Senator Shehu Sani has advised former President Goodluck Jonathan not to recontest for presidency in the 2027 welection.
He said: “Each time there is an election, the name of Jonathan comes up. It is his volition to contest, but I advise him not to do that. The reason is very simple: the PDP he used to know is not the PDP now.
“The PDP in the South-West is endorsing the President, (Bola Tinubu). Some members of the party are in the (ADC) coalition. It is not the party he used to know so he shouldn’t waste his time.”
Jonathan, who deputised former President Umaru Yar’adua for three years before his death, succeeded him on May 6, 2010, till May 29, 2011. He was elected on the PDP platform and was in power till May 29, 2015.
Jonathan also re-contested in 2015 but lost to Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who was in power till May 2023 when he handed over to his party man, Tinubu.
