Former President Goodluck Jonathan met secretly
with President Muhammad Buhari on Thursday
night, with corruption at the center of their
discussion, two Presidency sources have disclosed.
President Buhari and President Jonathan met
secretly last Thursday
Our sources disclosed that the meeting between
President and the man he unseated in the March 28,
2015 presidential poll lasted from 9-10 pm. Nigerian
time.
Our sources stated that they understood that former
President Jonathan did not seek any explicit
overtures from President Buhari, adding that they
suspect that Mr. Jonathan was at the Presidential
Villa to check Mr. Buhari's temperament regarding
the growing probe of sectors of the former
president's administration.
One source stated that President Buhari and Mr.
Jonathan parted on an "amicable note," with both
men chatting and laughing.
The meeting was kept secret, hidden from the media.
Less than 24 hours after the meeting, former
President Olusegun Obasanjo also requested to meet
with President Buhari. One source revealed that, at a
Friday meeting with President Buhari, Mr. Obasanjo
urged the new president to act boldly and
courageously on corruption. According to the source,
Mr. Obasanjo specifically told the president to be
open to sending former President Jonathan to prison
on account of his involvement in corrupt activities.
Mr. Obasanjo reportedly listed fraudulent selling of
Nigeria's crude oil and the arms import scams as two
areas he would be able to assist Mr. Buhari to nail
former President Jonathan.
Unlike the meeting between President Buhari and his
immediate predecessor, the meeting with Mr.
Obasanjo was in the full glare of the media. However,
neither Mr. Obasanjo nor the president offered an
official account of the subject or substance of their
meeting which was held behind close doors.
