President Goodluck Jonathan's 2015 presidential campaign posters were spotted strategically displayed in various parts of Ogun, on December 16, 2013, Monday.
Residents of some communities within the state also confirmed seeing the posters which had him wearing the traditional Yoruba cap and smiling.
The poster bore no party logo, but it is generally believed that President Jonathan plans to return to the seat of power through the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the ruling party, at the centre of which is riddled with controversies.
The simple message on the posters seen at the Toll Gate end of the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway as well as the Sango area of Ogun state, read: "Continuity is ok, tomorrow will be far better. It is now or never."
Though the President is yet to publicly state if he plans to return, analysts say his body language says it all.
Moreover, some people, including ex-militants, believed to be beneficiaries of his government had often declared that Jonathan must run for a second term.
One of such loyalists, Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, who had maintained that the country would be ungovernable if Nigerians fail to support Jonathan in 2015, reportedly gave in recently declaring that under a free and fair election, Jonathan, a Niger-Deltan, would lose.
Also, the President is facing a serious heat from his party, as five governors in the party recently defected to the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), while others are demanding the removal of the PDP National Chairman, Bamanga Tukur.
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo last week levelled serious allegations against President Jonathan, who he assisted to become the President.
One of such allegations was that due to the President's desperation for 2015, he already has 1000 politicians on his watch list while training snipers for use during the coming election.
What do you think of such a premature start of the 2015 presidential campaign?
