Former President Goodluck Jonathan has denied a report that he is eyeing the Presidency come 2019.
An online medium had reported that Jonathan declared interest to run for Office of the President in 2019 during a meeting yesterday in Bayelsa State .
The report quoted the former president as justifying his reason to re - contest for the seat he vacated over a year ago following his defeat in the 2015 presidential elections , to pressure from Nigerians from all walks of life , to come and salvage the economy from the governing All Progressives Congress , APC.
But his media aide , Ikechukwu Eze , denied the report , saying Dr . Jonathan is not considering taking another shot at the Presidency.
Eze added that the former president never made any declaration on 2019 election, either in May or this month .
