Arms Deal Scandal: Jonathan seeks one on one with President Buhari


President Buhari and Former President Jonathan
Following the Arms deal Scandal recurrently rocking the nation, a fresh revelation has it that some close associates of former President Jonathan were arranging a private meeting between him and Buhari to enable the former explain some things to the President.
It quoted the source as saying, “Jonathan will prefer a private audience with the President rather than taking up issues with the suspects in public. Some of the expenditures have grave security implications as they involve some neighbouring countries.


“As a statesman, Jonathan cannot just open up at all. For example, there is a unit where the overhead of past Presidents and Heads of State was taken care of. Some of the funds disbursed by the office had to do with these funds. If Jonathan speaks, will he not rubbish these past leaders?
“Some Presidents from some countries sought financial assistance from ex-President Goodluck Jonathan. Do you expect the former leader to issue a statement on such a sensitive request?

“At a point, there was negotiation to end Boko Haram insurgency. This type of deal cannot be put in the public domain.”
