During a visit to his office on Friday morning, the former president told those who stormed his private office in Abuja to demand he declares for the 2023 presidency that the political process is ongoing, urging them to watch as things unfold.
He Specifically stated that their is no guarantee that he will run for the 2023 presidential race yet.

The posters which were seen on the walls of the party secretariat carried the inscription ”Goodluck Jonathan You Must Run.”
