Going further, he said joining APC will be meaningless because the former president won’t be able to cause a radical change from within the APC.

He added that there is nothing to celebrate in APC. This message reechoes a call by another Nigerian to Goodluck Jonathan

Nwodo said:

“Personally, my advice to President Goodluck Jonathan is that no matter how much he’s being wooed to join APC, whatever is left of his integrity as a former president of Nigeria will disappear the day he joins APC. That’s my personal advice, because no group of people have been so virulent in destroying him as a person and president as the APC. So what is he looking for there? Does he think he can reverse the pit that Nigeria has fallen with APC by joining the APC? I don’t think so."
