‎Former Nigerian President, Goodluck Jonathan, on Sunday, reportedly met with President Bola Tinubu behind closed-door in Aso Rock Villa. ‎‎According to The Nation, the meeting appeared to have been private, as no statement was issued afterwards. ‎‎The former president has been mum amid speculation on his purported political comeback to join the 2027 presidential race. ‎‎However, Jonathan’s name was conspicuously missing from the list of 19 presidential candidates released on Saturday by the electoral umpire. ‎‎Although the details of the meeting with Tinubu cannot be ascertained at the moment, it may not be unconnected to the coming elections.
