According to the BBC, former Nigerian President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is seeking to return to office in next year's election after switching political parties.

After five years in power, Mr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has joined the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), that defeated him in 2015.

On Monday, a supporters' group purchased the nomination form on his behalf, continuing the tradition of aspirants purchasing the form through proxies.

Many Nigerians, particularly those in his former party, the People's Democratic Party (PDP), were surprised by his decision to run for president with the APC.

Rumours about his secret defection to the ruling party had been circulating for months, but neither Mr Jonathan nor his friends had responded.

Nigeria's major political parties are scheduled to hold primaries later this month in order to fulfill the election commission's June 3 deadline for submitting candidates for the February 2023 poll.

The APC's nomination form cost 100 million naira (which is about $240,000; £195,000).
