2023: The constitution disqualifies Jonathan from contesting — Falana

Section 137(3) of the constitution disqualifies Jonathan from contesting for the office of the president.

Femi Falana, senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN), says former President, Goodluck Jonathan, cannot run for president in 2023.

Although the former president is yet to declare his interest in the presidency, there have been speculations that he may defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC) to contest in the 2023 presidential election.

Several support groups have asked him to run for president.

Last Thursday, April 21, 2022, a youth group known as the Nigerian Young Professionals in Diaspora (NYPD) gave the former president a week’s ultimatum to declare his presidential bid.
