2027: Jonathan hasn’t resigned from our party – PDP insists

 The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP, Debo Ologunagba, has confirmed that former President Goodluck
Jonathan remains a member of the party.

 

Ologunagba spoke on Wednesday while fielding questions on
Arise Television’s Morning Show.

 

The statement comes amid speculation that the PDP might
field the former President as its presidential candidate for the 2027 election.

 

Jonathan has neither confirmed nor denied his interest in
contesting the forthcoming presidential election.

 

However, the PDP publicity secretary, while speaking about
the matter, maintained that Jonathan has not resigned his membership of the
PDP.

 

“President Jonathan is still a member of this party because
he has not resigned,” he said.

 

He, however, declined to comment on speculations about
former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi returning to the PDP.

 

“Mr Peter Obi was a presidential candidate in the last
election for another political party. He has not indicated interest in joining
the party. So for me, it will be improper for me to begin to comment on that,”
Ologunagba stated.

 

Highlighting the party’s strength, he noted that the PDP has
capable leaders who can represent Nigerians in 2027.

 

“What I can comment on is our capacity, even as we stand,
that we have exceedingly qualified individuals. You mentioned Governor Makinde,
of course, that’s one of our poster boys in this party in terms of performance,
in terms of capacity, in terms of being able to galvanize Nigerians.

 

“So for us, we have in this party today various eminently
qualified Nigerians and governors who are performing, and Nigeria can recognize
that PDP states remain oasis of development centers in this country,”
Ologunagba said.
