Buhari Didn’t Jail Ajasin – Family by RAO1(m): 12:05am On Jan 30, 2015
Contrary to the insinuation by the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) that the All
Progressives Congress (APC) presidential
candidate, Gen Muhammadu Buhari, jailed the
first civilian governor of Ondo State, Chief
Adekunle Ajasin, his family has said Buhari’s
military government only detained the late
Afenifere leader and was later released after
interrogation.
The family cautioned the PDP to stop using
their father’s name to campaign against the
APC.
The Ajasin’ family also said they had forgiven
Buhari over the arrest of the former governor
in 1984.
The family spokesman, Chief Tokunbo Ajasin,
who spoke to journalists in Akure on Thursday,
maintained that his father had forgiven the
former head of state long before his death.
He cautioned politicians, particularly those
seeking elective positions to base their
campaigns strictly on issues rather than
irrelevances.
He said, “It will be totally wrong for anybody
to say that Gen. Buhari ‘s government jailed
my father. No, that is not correct. It was true
that my father was detained under Buhari’s
military regime along with other former
governors in Nigeria and two panels of inquiry
were consequently set-up to look into the
allegations against my father and others. But
the panels found my father innocent and
exonerated him as well.
“What Buhari did then was part of military
policies and tradition. Though many Nigerians
were not happy with that, but my father had
since forgiven Buhari before his demise.
“As far as the issue is concerned, the family of
Ajasin had forgiven Buhari as well. Because
as Christians we should exhibit the spirit of
forgiveness always. The bible says Father
forgive us as we forgive those who offend us.”
The former governor’s son said he met Buhari
at a function sometime ago where the duo
happily embraced each other, indicating that
the disagreement was over.
