The question of whether the former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has the legal right to run for president is out of the way as he has the right. According to the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999, the president is entitled to a 8 year maximum term. As it stands, the former President has only served for one term.

This could be to the fact that he has seen a lot of politicians showed interest in the race especially under the All Progressive Congress. As a man who loves peace, this possibly could be a good reason for him not to run. However, should in case he chooses to run, here 3 likely things that may happen.

1. If he decides to join the presidential race under the All Progressive Congress, he’s not likely to win the ticket. This is because he will just be a new member of the party. The leader of the party, Ahmed Tinubu will likely have an upper hand over the former President.
