Goodluck Jonathan is running. Or he isn’t.
Nobody knows. Including, it seems, the Peoples Democratic Party.
Since January 2026, party elders have courted him. Waivers signed. Screening done. By May, a PDP faction named him the sole aspirant for 2027. Campaign posters are up. Court cases to stop him are filed.
Jonathan’s response: nothing.
But in Nigerian politics, nothing is something. Wike’s camp reads it as caution. Turaki’s camp sells it as consent. Markets twitch. PDP stalls. Lawyers ask judges to decide what the man himself won’t say.
