The Middle Belt Progressive Forum has offered to purchase the expression of interest and nomination forms of any political party for former President Goodluck Jonathan should he decide to contest the presidential election in 2023.In a statement issued on Tuesday, Paul Agada, convener of the forum, said Jonathan’s “rare” qualities have earned him the moniker “peacemaker”.Advertisement
“Dr. Goodluck Jonathan is a man of peace who has demonstrated in times past that he does not place his personal ambition over the peace and stability of the country,” he said. “This rare quality has seen him gain recognition as a peacemaker and key negotiator in conflicts across the African continent.
“Jonathan is fondly remembered for the establishment of much needed Federal Universities in Lokoja and Lafia in Kogi and Nasarawa States respectively. Also, he approved the release of N30 billion from the Subsidy Reinvestment Programme fund to finance the Loko-Oweto Bridge project to link Benue and Nasarawa States, a project that has now been completed by the current administration.
“We hereby urge him to heed the call of the Middle Belt Progressive Forum and teeming millions of Nigerians across the country and in the diaspora without further delay.”
