Gana said Nigerians are yearning for Jonathan's return after experiencing two other leaders (late President Muhammadu and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu)
“In 2015, former President Goodluck Jonathan said his ambition was not worth the blood of Nigerians. After him, another President ruled for eight years, and now another has ruled for two years. Nigerians have seen the difference, and the difference is very clear. Nigerians are now asking us to bring back our friend, former President Goodluck Jonathan."
He added that:
“I can confirm that Goodluck Ebele Jonathan will contest the presidential election in 2027 as PDP candidate, and we should be prepared to vote for him to return as President again.”
According to Gana, the PDP is “truly democratic and grassroots-oriented,” stating that the party had always allowed Nigerians to freely choose their leaders.
Gana maintained that the PDP remained popular because of its people-centred programmes.
