Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan has praised the vice president candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Governor of Delta State, Ifeanyi Okowa.
VANTAGE NEWS reports that Jonathan addressed Okowa as the incoming Vice President of Nigeria while playing host to the governor and other dignitaries of the main opposition party.
This means that Jonathan is supporting the candidacy of Atiku Abubakar since Okowa cannot become the vice president without Atiku emerging as the winner of next year’s presidential election.
At the meeting on Wednesday, Jonathan held Okowa’s hand and was quoted to have said; “Our incoming vice-president — he has served two tenures as a governor.”
