Former President Goodluck Jonathan has debunked reports of his defection to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Jonathan said he is still a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Speaking at the supreme court victory/ thanksgiving service of the Bayelsa State governor, the former president described PDP “as a friend that carries people along.”

Jonathan said “PDP has been a very friendly party, I am a member of PDP and I know from the beginning till today, it has been a very friendly party, PDP is a party that carries everybody along and we should extend that to Bayelsa State.
