Daniel Woyengikuro, the National Financial Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has said the party could offer former President Goodluck Jonathan an automatic ticket to contest the 2027 presidential election.

However, he stressed that Jonathan would have to return to the party and play a more active political role.

Woyengikuro stated this during an interview with Vanguard.

He said: “Is he not the best candidate for us at this moment? He is not just a former president; he is the leader of the party now.

“Aside from [former President Olusegun] Obasanjo, the next person in line is him. Goodluck Jonathan is the national leader of this party.”

When asked directly if PDP would consider granting Jonathan an automatic ticket, Woyengikuro replied: “For me, that’s what I firmly stand for. You can quote me anywhere — I want him to come.

“An automatic ticket for him, as it stands now. Because we must salvage both this party and the nation.”
