Former Commonwealth Secretary, Chief Emeka Anyaoku, yesterday
debunked the online report published by Sahara Reporters, which alleged
that he visited President Muhammadu Buhari on behalf of former President
Goodluck Jonathan to halt the ongoing probe of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) government under the former president.
Describing the report as ‘utterly baseless and despicable,” Anyaoku
said it was unimaginable that people could sit down and fabricate a
story without a foundation. “It is utterly baseless and despicable
because there is no truth in it; not at all,” he said.
“My attention has just been drawn to SAHARA REPORTERS’ utterly
baseless and despicable story of my meeting yesterday with President
Buhari.
The truth is that my meeting with the President lasted only 25
minutes and never, repeat never, was former President Jonathan mentioned
in our discussions,” the former Commonwealth scribe said in a statement
sent to The Guardian yesterday.
