Former Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan's cousin, Azibaola Robert, refuted reports claiming Jonathan had ruled out contesting the 2027 presidential election. The denial came after speculation about Jonathan's political future and a supposed plan to disrupt Southern unity.
Azibaola clarified that Jonathan had not confirmed his candidacy but had not ruled it out either, emphasizing that any decision would not be driven by selfish motives. While ongoing consultations hint at a potential comeback bid, Jonathan has not formally declared his intention to run.
