Jonathan Shocked Me In 2015, Buhari Tells Reporters by NaijaCuzin: 1:17am On May 31, 2016 |
The Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday told State House correspondents in Abuja that he was shocked when the former President, Goodluck Jonathan, called him before the 2015 Presidential election was concluded to concede defeat. At a launch with the reporters, president Buhari again commended the former President for the decision which he said came as a surprise to “Great Sense Of Patriotism” “When he made that famous call at 4:45 pm and said ‘Good evening Mr. President, I have called to congratulate you and I concede defeat’, I was silent for quite a while because I was surprised and he said ‘did you hear me?’,”President Buhari said. Dr Jonathan had called Mr Buhari to congratulate him on his victory, requesting that he should make out time to visit the Presidential Villa for talks on the transitional process. Mr Buhari further said: “For someone who was a Deputy Governor, a Governor, a Vice President and a President for six years to concede that easily showed his great sense of patriotism”. He also pointed out that the former President was a member of a party that was at the helms of affairs for 16 years. “For him to still go ahead and concede was definitely not an easy decision." The President, however, described his experience in the villa during the hand over, as different from what he envisaged, maintaining that his administration did not meet any money on ground. He also told the reporters that he would carefully work with the judiciary and the international community in the recovery of looted funds to ensure that all monies stolen by the past administration are fully recovered. http://9japikinblog..nl/2016/05/jonathan-shocked-me-in-2015-buhari.html?m=1

Jonathan is a hero of democracy and I am glad
the President acknowledged his sportsmanship.
He could have tailored the electoral process to
ensure his victory at the polls but he respected
the sovereign right of the people to choose their
leader.
Jonathan lacked perfection, but no one can fault
his commitment to credible elections, nay
democracy. |

He conceded defeat simply because he is more honorable , intelligent and more politically mature. |
