2023: Goodluck Jonathan reacts as posters re-surfaces in Abuja, APC headquarters
Former President Goodluck Jonathan has said he is yet to declare for the 2023 presidency as the process to that effect is ongoing.
He spoke while playing host to a large crowd of supporters, mostly youths and women on solidarity march to his office in Abuja.
Leaders of the placard-carrying supporters took turns to ask the former President to return to office in 2023.
Meanwhile, the posters of the former President have adorned the national secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja.
The posters, with a big picture of the ex- President in his South-south attire and a bowler hat with the inscription: “Goodluck Jonathan You Must Run”, are occupying a conspicuous position on the wall of the party secretariat.

Although nobody was able to ascertain the people that pasted the posters, our correspondent gathered that some young boys were seen pasting the posters.
It will be recalled that the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), along with some APC governors, paid a courtesy visit to the former president, fuelling suspicion of moves to woo Jonathan to the party.
The committee was alleged to have muted the idea of dragging the ex-President to come and contest the 2023 presidential election on the platform of the APC.
The allegation was refuted by the defunct CECPC. The committee said the then CECPC chairman and the governors only paid a courtesy visit to the elder statesman.
