In response to this development, Pres. Buhari’s spokesperson, Femi Adesina, asked why people are worrying on speculations when nothing concrete had been brought against Jonathan.
He said: “All these are speculations and I cannot react to speculations because there is nothing concrete yet against the former President.”
The leader of the group, Osaghae Ogiemudia however said in a statement that they are aware of the ‘clandestine moves’ made by the APC administration and other anti-Niger Delta and anti-Ijaw role the party continues to play:
Ogiemudia said: “We, the members of the Vanguards of Nigeria’s Democracy, are aware of some clandestine moves made by the APC-led government to probe, investigate, malign and imprison ex President Jonathan. We are already aware of the trumped-up charges the APC government is leveling against a man who has diligently served the Nigerian state at the highest level of government.
