2027: Group Begins Mobilisation For Ex-President, Jonathan

A political pressure group, Goodluck Nigeria Movement (GNM), said it has begun the mobilisation of Nigerians to call on former President Goodluck Jonathan to contest the 2027 presidential election.

The group said it has already elected a respected statesman and an astute Administrator and grassroot politician, Chief Diekivie Ikiogha, as its national chairman and a renowned businessman, Chief Robert Azibato, as its national secretary, among other elected officers.

GNM’s ‎director of Strategic Communications, ‎Dr. Derek Omoleh, who disclosed this in a statement made available to LEADERSHIP in Port Harcourt, said many Nigerians are seeking for the return of Jonathan to rescue the country.

The statement described the organisation as not just as a political group, but as a national rescue mission to bring back the leader who symbolizes Nigeria’s last period of true prosperity.

The group said it believes that Jonathan is the only leader with the right temperament, proven track record, experience and compassion to guide the country through the current economic and political turmoil.

The statement reads in part: “Nigeria does not need an apprentice; it needs an experienced leader. The GNM believes that Dr. Jonathan is the only leader with the right temperament, proven track record, experience and compassion to guide the country through the current economic and political turmoil.

‎”We remember when Nigeria was the pride of Africa—the largest economy, a hub for global investment, and a place where dreams were affordable. That was the ‘Jonathan era’.

‎”During this time of division, Dr. Jonathan remains the only person who can stay calm amid the chaos and bring peace. His “Peace First” philosophy is what our democracy urgently needs. Recall his historic speech, ‘my ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian.’
‎
‎”From farmers in the North to traders in the South, the message is universal: ‘Bring back the stability of the Jonathan years’. His return means a swift return to policies that benefit the masses instead of just the elites.”
