Goodluck Jonathan speaks on alleged defection to APC

 

 Former President Goodluck Jonathan has refuted reports of his defection to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

 

Jonathan said he is still a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

 

Speaking at the supreme court victory/ thanksgiving service of the Bayelsa State governor, the former president described PDP “as a friend that carries people along.”

 

According to Jonathan: “PDP has been a very friendly party, I am a member of PDP and I know from the beginning till today, it has been a very friendly party, PDP is a party that carries everybody along and we should extend that to Bayelsa State.

 

Jonathan has been linked with a possible move to the APC after he played host to some chieftains of the ruling party.

 

The former president was linked with the APC 2023 presidential ticket.

 

However, the interim Caretaker Committee Chairman of the APC, Mai Mala Buni had denied such claims.
