2027 Ambition: Jonathan Worried FG Might Blackmail Him By Resuming Probe On Patience – Source
A source close to former President Goodluck Jonathan has expressed concern that the Federal Government might attempt to blackmail him by resuming a probe into his wife, Patience Jonathan. The source revealed that Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, is leading efforts to have Jonathan emerge as a candidate for the presidency in 2027, with a focus on one-term rotation.
Jonathan is reportedly worried that the government's potential probe could hinder his campaign. Additionally, there are reports of pressure on former Vice President Peter Obi to rejoin the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and run for office in 2027.
However, Obi has not made any public commitments. The article also mentions claims of pressure on churches and schools to receive opposition leaders like Obi.
Governor Mohammed has urged Obi to return to the party, but Obi has not confirmed any plans to do so.
