Ahead of the 2023 presidential election, President Muhammadu Buhari has reportedly supported the presidential bid of former President Gooddluck Jonathan.
According to SaharaReporters, Buhari reportedly shunned his vice president, Yemi Osinbajo and the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, for the number one seat in the country.
The news platform claimed that the President has communicated his plan for Jonathan to be his successor in 2023 and has started making moves to ensure that the plan comes to reality.
It reported that some of the ways to actualise the plan were discussed at the meeting between President Buhari and Jonathan last Thursday inside Aso Rock.
The news platform added that some prominent politicians from the North including state governors and National Assembly members had already backed the idea.
It claimed that the arrangement will enable power to return to the northern region in 2027 when Jonathan would have served out his single four-year term
