FILE: Factional National Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party, Tanimu Turaki.

The Tanimu Turaki faction of the Peoples Democratic Party has claimed the ruling All Progressives Congress is growing nervous over the prospect of former President Goodluck Jonathan’s return to power in 2027.

It said recent comments by the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, are evidence of the ruling party’s anxiety over the increasing calls for Jonathan’s candidacy.

Turaki-led PDP faction, through its National Publicity Secretary, Ini Ememobong, on Tuesday urged Keyamo to focus on challenges in the aviation sector and governance issues rather than the internal affairs of the party.

On Saturday, the Turaki-led PDP faction announced former President Jonathan as its 2027 presidential candidate in absentia.
