The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has called on former President Goodluck Jonathan to publicly reject the presidential nomination reportedly offered to him by a faction of the Peoples Democratic Party.

Keyamo said the PDP faction that announced Jonathan as its candidate for the 2027 presidential election is not recognised by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

Recall that a faction of the PDP led by Tanimu Turaki had recently named Jonathan as its presidential candidate for the 2027 election.

This came weeks after another faction led by supporters of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, announced Senator Sandy Onor as the party’s presidential candidate.
