News:Abeokuta Meeting: Obasanjo's 5 Questions To Jonathan

Reactions and allegations keep tracking the
Monday meeting between President Goodluck
Jonathan and former President Olusegun
Obasanjo, held in Abeokuta, Ogun State
.
It had been previously reported that what was
supposed to be a peace meeting ended in fiasco.
Some sources said that Obasanjo was not feeling
comfortable during the encounter because of the
President’s recent provocative utterances against
prominent Nigerian statesmen, including him.
The others however added that the meeting “was
frank and straight to the issues at hand”.
Still, it soon emerged that following the occasion
OBJ declared his current mindset to be ABJ , or
“Anything But Jonathan” . It was a clear indication
that the whole thing did not go well.
The latest update on the meeting was exclusive
provided by Leadership, according to which the ex-
President put the acting President on the hot seat in
his Hilltop residence in Abeokuta.
Together with Pastor Enoch Adeboye and Bishop
David Oyedepo, also present at the meeting,
Obasanjo asked Jonathan questions which he had
earlier thrown up in his correspondence to the
country leader .
See the FIVE questions of crucial importance which
were allegedly heard behind the closed doors.
It seemed like a court interrogation as Obasanjo
asked Jonathan to “tell the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth”.
1. Did you agree to run for only one term or not?
2. What did you tell me was your reason for not
going after Boko Haram insurgents even when I told
you this will boomerang?
3. What happened to Nigeria’s external reserve and
Sovereign Wealth Fund?
4. Did you give licence to Niger Delta militants
(Dokubo and Tompolo) to import arms in the name
of their privately owned companies? If so, for what
reason?
5. Did you not get correspondence from the United
States consulate that a certain citizen named Buruji
Kashamu is indicted for drug trafficking? Why did
you appoint the same Kashamu as South West
leader of PDP rather than hand him over to the US?
And did the PDP give automatic Senate ticket to a
wanted and convicted drug baron?
The information about the answers to these
questions is however yet to be obtained.
Meanwhile, as less than a months is left before the
presidential elections in Nigeria, the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), the All Progressives
Congress (APC) and other political parties signed a
document to avoid actions that could endorse
violence during and after the polls
