Jonathan, who was President from 2010 to 1015 before he was defeated by the incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari  and his All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2015, is seen as  a  leader of the opposition  People’s Democratic Party (PDP), the platform under which he was president.

In a telephone chat with Prime Business Africa shortly after the news of his alleged payment of N100 million for the APC nomination form broke, Jonathan’s spokesman,  Ike Eze,  said:  ”Don’t mind them; they are on their own.”

There is still an uncertainty regarding whether the former President actually made the payment by himself or through  other APC  members clamoring for a Jonathan ‘Presidency’  in 2023, especially as he  has not officially left the opposition PDP.

Impeccable sources in Heritage Bank confirmed  to PBA that  a payment of N100 million payment  was made on behalf of the ex-president for Nomination Form and Expression of Interest Form in two tranches on Monday, but failed to confirm if it was done directly or by proxy.
