Jonathan Will Contest 2027 Presidency On PDP Ticket – Jerry Gana
A former Minister of Information and Orientation, Professor Jerry Gana, has revealed that ex-President Goodluck Jonathan will contest the 2027 presidential election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Gana, who spoke shortly after the PDP Congress in Minna, Niger State, at the weekend, expressed confidence that Jonathan would defeat President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and reclaim power, a decade after leaving office.
The former minister said Nigerians, having experienced two different administrations after Jonathan’s tenure, were now yearning for his return.
“In 2015, former President Goodluck Jonathan said his ambition was not worth the blood of Nigerians. After him, another President ruled for eight years, and now another has ruled for two years.
Nigerians have seen the difference, and the difference is very clear. Nigerians are now asking us to bring back our friend, former President Goodluck Jonathan,” Gana said.
Jonathan, who was Nigeria’s sitting President between 2010 and 2015, lost his re-election bid to the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), in the 2015 general election.
That defeat ended the PDP’s 16-year dominance of Nigeria’s political space and plunged the party into years of internal wrangling as it sought to bounce back.

Despite its struggles, PDP leaders like Gana believe Jonathan remains a unifying figure who could rally support for the party.
Confirming Jonathan’s interest in the 2027 race, Gana said party members and Nigerians should brace up for his comeback.
“I can confirm that Goodluck Ebele Jonathan will contest the presidential election in 2027 as PDP candidate, and we should be prepared to vote for him to return as President again,” he declared.
With this confirmation, Jonathan’s anticipated return to the ballot may reshape Nigeria’s political calculations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
