Jonathan endorsed the candidacy of Atiku and his running mate, Okowa for the 2023 presidency.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s Presidential ticket received a big boost as former President, Goodluck Jonathan, has expressed his endorsement of Abubakar Atiku and Ifeanyi Okowa ahead of 2023 elections.

Meanwhile, in what appears like a small win for Atiku, Jonathan has described Okowa as the incoming vice president.

The former President revealed this when a PDP delegation led by Okowa as well as Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State visited him in Abuja, on Wednesday, October 12, 2022.

This was captured in a video going viral on social media, wherein the Jonathan also declared his willingness and readiness to support and work for the success of the PDP in the 2023 elections.

He further stated that he wished the party members success in all their endeavours “especially those who want to represent us from next year (2023).”

Raising Okowa’s hand, Jonathan called him “our incoming Vice President.”

On his part, Governor Okowa said it was important to seek the support of President Jonathan and with his blessing, the party was poised for victory in February.
