Former President Goodluck Jonathan has visited President Bola Tinubu at the State House.
The purpose of the visit was not disclosed, but it may not be unrelated to Tinubu’s recent victory in court.
The visit comes a day after the Supreme Court upheld Tinubu’s election victory and dismissed the appeals of his main challengers, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP).
Former President Goodluck Jonathan described himself as a “roving ambassador” while speaking to newsmen.
He spoke on Friday while fielding questions from State House reporters after a closed door meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The former president called on political leaders and former presidents to come together so that citizens would not suffer.
When asked about the Supreme Court verdict, he said: “We need to bring all our political leaders including all our former Presidents together, we will not be fighting, if top leaders continue fighting they will not suffer that much but the down trodden will suffer. And we want to end that tension so we move forward.”
