The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives
Congress, APC, Muhammadu Buhari, may have held a
secret meeting last night with some loyalists of President
Goodluck Jonathan in Paris, sources said from the French
capital.
Buhari left Nigeria on Thursday morning officially to hold
meetings with key members of the British political class
and interact with some global institutions.
But sources said he might have gone to Paris first to meet
with some close allies of Jonathan who are seeking
reassurance that they won’t be jailed by a Buhari
presidency.
It was learnt that Bola Tinubu, an APC leader, two Nigerian
former heads of state and a wealthy Lebanese family with
extensive business interests in Nigeria may have been part
of the people brokering the deal in Paris during a meeting
on Thursday night.
The meeting was arranged by a foreign power in Nigeria
that seems to have written off President Jonathan.
The negotiations, it was learnt, are based on the fear in
Jonathan’s circle that Buhari will try and convict all of the
top people in the Jonathan administration who are known
to have stolen a lot of cash from the nation’s treasury.
It was learnt that Buhari and the top leadership of APC may
be considering amnesty for some of them if he is eventually
elected on 28 March.
The discussions are referred to as the Brazillian model, a
type of deal where the president offers amnesty and asks
the thieves to bring home the money stolen and invest it in
the economy. CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
