President Goodluck Jonathan on Wednesday, April 8, 2015 paid former Minister of Defence, General Theophilus Danjuma a private visit at his Asokoro, Abuja abode.
President Jonathan, who made the visit in compsny of his aids, was said to have met with General Danjuma behind closed doors, although the purpose of their meeting was not made public.
Danjuma, who spoke to newsmen after the meeting hailed President Jonathan for his sportsmanlike gesture in congratulating General Muhammadu Buhari, adding that the President had set a record which African and world leaders should strive to emulate.
He said: “The outcome of the election and the manner in which President Jonathan conceded victory to Buhari, is un-African, it is very important in the history of Africa.
“If Ojukwu did the same after the fall of Enugu, if he had conceded victory to the federal troops, he would have saved the nation one full year of bloodshed.
“President Jonathan has set a history, a record as something to be emulated by the rest of Africa and indeed the whole world. Its an excellent thing he did.”
