Former Nigerian President, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, has reportedly come under heightened military protection in Guinea-Bissau as political tension in the country continues to escalate.
According to emerging reports, Jonathan — who has been in the country on an official mediation assignment as part of the ECOWAS diplomatic team — is now being escorted by armed military personnel as he prepares to depart the troubled West African nation.
The political atmosphere in Guinea-Bissau has grown increasingly unstable in recent days, with reports of deepening power struggles, security breaches, and fears of possible unrest. Jonathan, known for his peace-building efforts across Africa, has been a key figure mediating political disputes in the region.
Sources say the decision to place him under tight military guard was taken as a precautionary measure to ensure his safety while arrangements for his departure are being finalized.
As of the time of this report, official ECOWAS and Nigerian government statements are still being anticipated to provide clearer details on the situation.
Report Naija will continue to monitor developments and provide updates as the story unfolds.
