Addressing newsmen after a secret meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan at his residence in Abuja, Danjuma said had Ojukwu surrendered to the Federal troops after the fall of Enugu, the bloodshed that followed would have been averted.
The former minister however commended the President for conceding defeat from the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari.
"If he (Ojukwu) had conceded victory to the federal troops, he would have saved the nation one full year of bloodshed. "The outcome of the election and the manner in which President Jonathan conceded victory to Buhari, is totally un-African. It is very important in the history of Africa.
"President Jonathan has set a history, a record, as something to be emulated by Africa and indeed the whole world. Its an excellent thing he did," Danjuma said
Jonathan had been having consultations with prominent leaders in the country ahead of his handover ceremony to the president-elect by May 29th.
He met with Buhari last Friday behind closed doors
