2019: Senate Stop Goodluck Jonathan from Contesting

The Nigerian Senate, on Wednesday, barred a former president, Goodluck Jonathan from running for a second
term in office.

The Bill sought that any vice president who had completed a tenure of a sitting president and contested a fresh four years mandate shall not be eligible to run for a second term of office.
