One of im most loyal supporters, Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg don launch social media campaign to get am back into Downing Street, and plenty Conservative MPs dey support am. Defence Secretary Ben Wallace, wey pipo see as as influential force for di Conservative party, tell di im dey "lean towards" supporting Johnson.

Scotland Frist Minister Nicola Sturgeon describe Johnson return as "ridiculous suggestion". Liberal Democrats wey dey attempt to block Johnson becoming prime minister through motion for parliament describe di former UK prime minister as "Britain's Berlusconi". Oga Johnson don surprisingly keep low profile since leaving office. E no dey too tok for di House of Commons and spend di past few weeks doing speaking tour of di US before going on holiday. But Johnson biographer Andrew Gimson point out say di man no be pesin to "live a life of blameless obscurity". If only single candidate emerge, di contest go dey over on Monday - if not, dem go chose di new leader by a vote from party membership on Friday 28 October. Survey dem do in di final days of Liz Truss' premiership don continue to show Johnson as di most popular successor.

"I tink if we dey tok about unity and decisive candidates oga Sunak and oga Johnson na di two pipo wey fit divide di party," oga Johnson tok.
