Mr Jonathan has not publicly indicated interest in running again for president, but there have been calls from some PDP leaders that he should be the party’s flagbearer for the 2027 presidential election. Mr Jonathan was president on the PDP platform but lost his reelection bid to Muhammadu Buhari (now late) of the APC in 2015.
PREMIUM TIMES reports that the PDP’s two-day convention is being held despite two orders of the Federal High Court, which mandated that the convention should not be held until the cases at the court are dealt with.
