Akure—FORMER Police Affairs
Minister, Alhaji Jelili Adesiyan, has said neither himself nor his
colleagues and their aides are being victimised by the new
administration.
Speaking with newsmen in Akure, the Ondo state capital, Adesiyan said
probing the ministers should not be seen as victimization by the
President Muhammadu Buhari administration.
Adesiyan however kicked against the selective probe of the President
Jonathan administration but said that it should be holistic “even when
President Buhari was the military Head of State”
The minister, who was asked to react to alleged victimization of
former Ministers under the Jonathan administration said “I am not seeing
them doing it.
“I was a minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, whatever you
are doing, you must be prepared because somebody somewhere, some time
will ask questions.
“When Chief Obasanjo, the past President wrote a book: “My Watch,”
somebody, Yinka Odumakin wrote another book: “Watch the Watcher.”
“Whatever they are doing today, somebody will do it to them tomorrow now; what they are doing is not new and it is good.
“When I was being appointed as a minister, I knew there would be a
day of reckoning one time, and that was why I had to caution myself and
make sure that everything I did was done by the rule, everything I did
from the beginning to the end, followed due process. I trust most of the
ministers did that too.’’
