We’ll Welcome Goodluck Jonathan – APC

National Secretary of All Progressives Congress (APC), John Akpanudoedehe has said the party will offer a red carpet to former President Goodluck Jonathan if he decides to defect from the People’s Democratic Party.

“Everyone is allowed to join the APC, we welcome everyone who wants to join. We are getting stronger in terms of our progressive agenda. I’m hearing that for the first time. If he comes, we will welcome him, that will be great news.

“The last National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting gave a blanket approval to everyone who wants to join the party and anyone who joins the party has the right to aspire for any office,” Akpanudoedehe said during a ChannelsTV program.

However, PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan refused to comment on the issue. In a press statement on Wednesday, Kola said, “Speculations that our former president and some of our governors are joining the APC remain what they are, speculations that exist in the figment of the imagination of the authors of such baseless speculations,”

Recall, In March 2021 ex-Senate President Bukola Saraki, led a delegation to Jonathan’s home to plead with him not to join the APC.
