According to the party members, allowing the former president to join the APC portends danger for the party.
Some of them said Jonathan has been behind several crises that have rocked the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, under which Jonathan became president.
The party supporters say if party leaders go ahead with the plan to force Jonathan on them, the APC should forget about winning the 2023 presidential election.

They described the former president as corrupt and a bad leader.
According to Adebayo Afee (@adebayoafeez360), “Bringing him to the party would be disastrous. Can’t you see his own beloved party didn’t even call for him to be their flag bearer? What else does the ruling party saw in him? #APCRejectGEJ.” (https://twitter.com/adebayoafeez360/status/1522122919459098626?s=20&t=fRaXxmJb9Vz8UcDEHYdpKw)
Another concerned stakeholder, Gifted (@SireGift_) said “Any attempt to give Jonathan a free presidential ticket of the APC will see the mass exodus of critical stakeholders from the Party and make the Party lose power. #APCRejectGEJ.” (https://twitter.com/SireGift_/status/1522112482738941952?s=20&t=fRaXxmJb9Vz8UcDEHYdpKw)
High Master Aleksandr (@Herleksandr) tweeted “We appeal to our leaders to ensure that this does not happen because it won’t serve our beloved Party any good but certainly programmed to make APC lose power at the center and the current majority control. #APCRejectGEJ” (https://twitter.com/Herleksandr/status/1522118045761691649?s=20&t=fRaXxmJb9Vz8UcDEHYdpKw)
Katelynsade (@Dagreatdey4you) noted “It doesn’t take rocket science to know that if Jonathan is helped back to power as president by the APC, he will still rule so badly that Nigerians will have no choice than vote PDP back to power in 2027.” https://twitter.com/Dagreatdey4you/status/1522111674064556034?s=20&t=fRaXxmJb9Vz8UcDEHYdpKw
