Recall that this online news platform had reported that campaign posters urging former President Goodluck Jonathan to join the 2023 presidential race have emerged at the National Secretariat of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja.
The posters which were seen on the walls of the party secretariat carried the inscription ”Goodluck Jonathan You Must Run.”
Similar posters were seen on the fences of many buildings on the Blantyre street leading to the APC Secretariat, further fueling speculations that Jonathan may be nursing an ambition to return to the Aso Rock Villa in 2023.
It is however unclear, those behind the posters.
