JONATHAN CAN CONTEST IN 2015, COURT RULES An Abuja High Court Friday ruled that President Goodluck Jonathan is eligible to contest for the presidency in 2015. Cyriacus Njoku has asked the court to declare that Jonathan cannot contest again in 2015 arguing that he is presently serving the constitutional 2-terms. But the Judge dismissed the claims and said that Jonathan is eligible to contest in 2015 since the constitution allowed for 2 terms. By the judgement Jonathan was said to have completed the first term of late Umaru Musa Yaradua.
