In the statement signed by Omiloli and Daniel, the group promised to purchase Jonathan’s form in any party he chooses to flag from and fund his electioneering campaign entirely if he eventually expresses interest in the nation's seat of power.
Meanwhile, Jonathan had finally addressed the 2023 presidential topic. Jonathan stated this when he paid a condolence visit to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa at Government House, Asaba, over the recent demise of Sir Okorie Okowa.
He said the rumour was a mere speculation according to a statement sent to Legit.ng by the Delta state government.
