Goodluck Jonathan is in the United States of America.

The immediate past president of Nigeria in a letter to Trump dated Friday, January 20, congratulated him and expressed optimism that his administration will work with the African continent to help her people realize its goals and aspirations.

However there were rumours in the Nigerian media space yesterday, January 19 that Jonathan will be attending Trump’s inauguration later today.

In a singular tweet, Adeyanju claimed that no invitation was extended by Trump to incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari.
