A cross section of Nigerians have appealed to former Nigerian President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to emulate the US President-elect, Donald Trump and make a political comeback in 2027.
Recall that Trump, who lost his re-election bid in 2020, is
set to return to the White House after winning the just concluded presidential
election in the US.
Trump of the Republican Party, who was the US President from
2016 to 2020, beat the incumbent vice president, Kamala Harris of the
Democratic Party, to emerge as the 47th president of the US.
The development was termed one of the biggest political
comebacks in the history of America.
Goodluck Jonathan took to his X handle on Sunday to
congratulate the US President-elect, describing the victory as impressive.
He wrote, “Dear President Trump, I extend my warmest
felicitations to you on your election as the 47th President of the United
States.
“Your impressive victory is a testament to the American
people’s faith in your leadership and vision for the future.
“I am optimistic that your presidency will not only advance
the American dream but also promote the cause for global peace, stability and
progress. Please accept my heartfelt congratulations once again.”
However, Nigerians stormed the comment section of the post
to demand his return to the Aso Rock, apparently in the 2027 election.
Some of the commenters urged Jonathan, who also lost his
re-election bid in 2015, to return to power and savage the nation from the
economic hardship currently bedeviling the citizens.
Here are some of the comments as compiled.
@AdamuHa93221616: “OGA Nigerians are sorry for not listening
to you at that time. You know that time we don’t know what you saw. Oga life is
hard now very well oh.
“We don’t know whether you go gree to finish your tenure in
2027 or you mentor Peter Obi and Atiku to come recuse us.”
“@Mrklassiq_: “Look at the way Donald Trump fought with Elon
to retrieve America from those wolves , but you will be doing “if you can beat
them, join them.” Put your house in order and retrieve Nigeria. You owe”.
@Knightsurge211: “Sir, you still have one more term to serve
Nigeria. Nigerians will massively vote you back in. It will be too big for Inec
and Mahmood to rig. God bless you, and God bless Nigeria.”
@TheodoreBassil: “See your mate going back to save their
country. Imagine you came back to save our country. But ‘mbanu’, you flee like
a minor. GEJ, no matter how you avoid this, the truth remains that your fear
brought us here.”
@Victorviri: “Please @GEJonathan … Learn from Donald Trump’s
victory. Nigeria has had their shares of bad luck since you left and things are
getting worse. If Peter Obi can’t do it, you can. We need a Saviour, this
suffering is too much.”
@manueldacreator: “You owe Nigerians and the entire youths
the mandate to run again for the president of Nigeria. Please, sir save us
please.”
