Former President Goodluck Jonathan has rejected the gift of forms bought for him to contest 2023 presidential election by nomadic Fulani pastoralists and Almajiri communities.
Incidentally, the drama that has been on since the rumour mills began spinning a while back that Jonathan would contest the presidency took another turn when, Dr Dennis Otiotio, Chairman, Bayelsa chapter of the APC, said the former president is at liberty to join the party but has yet to do so.
Saying that the APC in Bayelsa was not aware of Jonathan’s membership, he said “The former president is not yet a registered member of APC. He is free to join any party of his choice.
“We are open and willing to receive him into our fold, as a political party desirous of winning elections, the only way to go is by admitting people into the party”.
