GEJ Is Being Forced To Carry PDP’s Coffin – Shehu Sani

Goodluck Jonathan

Former Kaduna Central senator, Shehu Sani, has criticised moves by a PDP faction to draft former President Goodluck Jonathan into the 2027 presidential race. He recently had his say via a post on his X platform on Monday while reacting to the adoption of GEJ as the presidential candidate of a PDP faction ahead of the 2027 general election.

Describing the effort as belated and politically motivated, Shehu said that the people who are now promoting Jonathan’s candidacy failed to support him when the party was in a stronger position and more capable of mounting a serious electoral challenge.

Sani added that the current move appears less about giving Jonathan a realistic opportunity to lead the country again and more about using his political stature to revive a struggling political platform.

His words, “If they actually wanted GEJ, they should have fielded him in 2023 when the party was relatively alive and in good shape.

They just now want him to help them carry the coffin.”

WOW.
