The presidency has stated that President Buhari will only be probing the immediate past administration and not the administrations of Olusegun Obasanjo, Ibrahim Babangida, Sani Abacha and others. Speaking to newsmen, the special adviser to the president on Media and publicity, Femi Adesina says that President Buhari had stated during his campaign that his probe will only be limited to the immediate past administration
“If you recall, that was already settled before he got inaugurated as president. He has said he will not waste time digging into the far past. The far past will includes Obasanjo and others. But the president has said he will not waste time to go that far.” He said
Former President Jonathan had stated before leaving office that any probe focused on his administration will only amount to witch-hunting.
