Presidency Queries Why Yakasaai, Others Did Not Tell Jonathan to Probe IBB, Obasanjo, Yar'Adua

Presidency has stated that the administration of president Mohammadu Buhari will not shelve the probing of the past government of former President Goodluck Jonathan in the face of monumental fraud and corruption.

It however revealed that no one is under probe at the moment, saying that the government is only taking briefings and gathering evidences to prosecute corrupt officials of the past government.
The presidency's reiteration followed an accusation of selective probe by a prominent Northern leader, Tanko Yakassai.


In reaction to the accusation, the Senior Special Adviser to president Buhari on media and publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu said that there are sensitive matters arising from briefings and officials engagements which the president cannot overlook.

Shehu described as laughable the allegation that Buhari has excluded other former presidents like chief Olusegun Obasanjo due to his affinity with him.
