Reports say President Muhammadu Buhari will not implement the report of the 2014 National Conference convened by former president Goodluck Jonathan.

A top government official on Tuesday said that Buhari seems not to be interested in the implementation of the report despite the fact that Jonathan handed over the document to him alongside his  handover note.

Jonathan had, during his handover ceremony on May 28, told Buhari that the confab report was more important than his handover note.

But a Presidency source stated that Buhari would not implement it because he never believed in the conference but he would stick to the recommendations of his transition committee led by Ahmed Joda.

“President Buhari never believed in the National Conference. His position is not different from that of his party, the APC, which snubbed the invitation to send representatives to the confab.

“The conference and its report are Jonathan’s babies and you won’t expect this administration to implement the report, especially in this era that all we have been doing is to try and clear the rot left behind by the same administration.

“The President had not even at any time made any reference to the report. It is not on his agenda,” he said.

But Jonathan said he’d implement the report if he gets reelected. He also predicted that the APC would not implement the report since they refused to take part in the conference.

Buhari once took a swipe at the federal government over the conference, saying that billions of naira was spent on it.

The National Conference recommended that anybody aspiring to become the country’s president must be a degree holder, among other recommendations.

When contacted, Buhari’s spokesperson Femi Adesina said he has no information on the matter. He said, ‘‘The president will do what is in the best interest of Nigerians.’’

The National Publicity Secretary of the APC,  Lai Mohammed also said, “Like I said before, we will look at the document and any area that is beneficial to Nigeria and Nigerians will be considered.”
