The National Democratic Congress' gubernatorial candidate for Rivers State, Chief Dumo Lulu-Briggs, has met with former President Goodluck Jonathan prior to the 2027 gubernatorial election. The gathering reportedly occurred at Jonathan's residence in Bayelsa State; however, specifics regarding their conversation have not been disclosed.
The meeting might be linked to Lulu-Briggs' endeavors to gain political backing before the gubernatorial race. Lulu-Briggs is among the leading three contenders vying for the state's highest political position. He will be competing against candidates from the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Gabriel Pidomson, and the All Progressives Congress, APC, Kingsley Chinda.
The meeting with Jonathan comes following recent statements by the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, who has ruled out Lulu-Briggs' chances of winning the election. Wike has declared Chinda as the sole candidate with a chance at victory, attributing this to the backing of the Rainbow Coalition.
