Former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has stated that it was too early to begin the talk about returning to the presidency in 2023.
Speculations have emerged that Jonathan, who was defeated by Muhammadu Buhari in 2015, maybe plotting a return to Aso Rock.
Recall that some governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and chieftains of the party had recently visited Jonathan, as pressure continues to mount on him to contest the 2023 election.
attending an event organised by the Commonwealth Community Choir in Abuja on Friday, Jonathan said there are still other issues to focus on ahead of the next general election.
When asked if he would be joining the presidential race in 2023 he said: “It is too early to talk about that.”
He also spoke about the issue of insecurity in the country and called for support for the federal government and the security agencies to overcome the challenges.
The former president said Nigeria is not the only country affected by insecurity, adding that he had his challenges to deal with while in office.
Jonathan has been enjoying goodwill from APC leaders in recent times.
