What Is He Bringing To The Table? – Amaechi Queries Goodluck Jonathan’s Purported Presidential Ambition

Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, questioned Goodluck Jonathan's rumored presidential ambition during a recent session titled "Weekend Politics Friday." Amaechi expressed doubts about Jonathan's potential bid, citing his perceived lack of significant contributions beyond his single term as president. Amaechi also expressed regret for his role in Jonathan's removal in 2015, stating it was necessary to save Nigeria at the time.

While Jonathan has neither confirmed nor denied his interest in the presidency, Amaechi asserted that his return bid is certain, although he did not provide evidence to support this claim. Amaechi's statements have sent shockwaves through Jonathan's camp and the political landscape.

Meanwhile, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) praised Amaechi's recent activities, including his role in the emergence of a coalition that adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to challenge President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 elections.
