The Peoples Democratic Party Presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa on Thursday night met with former President, Goodluck  Ebele Jonathan.

Okowa, who is also the Delta State Governor, made this known in a post on his verified social media handles on Friday.

While sharing photos from the event, Okowa said the discussion with Jonathan was centered on how to recover power from the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, via the 2023 elections.

He wrote, “Last night, alongside our Presidential Candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, we had a great meeting with our former President, H.E. Goodluck Jonathan. There, we discussed our plans to #RecoverNigeria with His Excellency”.

In similar vein, Atiku also announced the Abuja meeting, “Last night, I led a delegation alongside my vice-presidential candidate, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, on a courtesy visit to former President Goodluck Jonathan at his residence in Abuja. -AA,” he wrote on his Facebook page on Friday.

Recall that Jonathan had endorsed the candidacy of Atiku and Okowa ahead of the 2023 polls.

Jonathan, during a visit by a PDP delegation led by Okowa as well as Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi state, in October, had described Okowa as Nigeria’s incoming Vice President.
