The claim that former Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan endorsed Peter Obi, a leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, for the 2027 presidential elections is unfounded. This misinformation emerged from a video that was originally recorded on December 24, 2022, which has been misleadingly repackaged to suggest a current endorsement. The recent meeting between Jonathan and Obi, which occurred on April 27, 2026, was characterized as a consultation rather than an endorsement. Yunusa Tanko, Obi's national coordinator, emphasized that there are no plans for an endorsement. Concurrently, Jonathan is receiving pressure from political stakeholders to consider a run for the presidency himself, although he has not made any official announcement regarding his candidacy. This situation highlights the importance of verifying political claims, especially as the 2027 elections approach.
