Former President of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, has said he will never contest the country’s Presidency again.
He noted that he would be diminishing himself if he should decide to begin to lobby people and campaign for election again.
In an interview published in a book, ‘My Time As Chaplain In Aso Rock,” presented to the public on Tuesday, the ex-president said, “If you wake up tomorrow and see that I am President again, that means there may have been circumstances beyond my control. But not to go and pick one form and go and start lobbying people and running for campaigns; I can’t do that again. If I do that, I will diminish myself,” the former President said.
He asserted, “I was enjoying the drama. At least they are not insulting me. After all, I was pursued out of the office that I was not good enough. So, if now, Nigerians are saying, ‘Oh, this man should come,’ that means they are cleaning me up. So, let me enjoy the drama.
