The President Muhammadu Buhari’s government is currently investigating the $2 billion arms procurement deal and many prominent politicians have been arrested.
Those currently arraigned alongside Dasuki are a former Director of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, Aminu Baba Kusa and Director of Finance and Administration in the Office of. the NSA, Salisu Shuaibu
President Buhari launched a panel to probe how billions of dollars meant for the procurement of arms deal vanished from the Central Bank of Nigeria.
During the last weeks the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Department of State Services have arrested some public figures who served under the immediate past Goodluck Jonathan’s government over the alleged $2 billion arms purchase deal.
Here’s an analysis of the supposed misappropriation of $2.1 bn meant for arms deal by Sambo Dasuki and others:
The National Youth Frontier from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) recently indicted president Buhari ober Dasuki's diverted billions.
The group stated that part of the diverted funds for the NSA was used to buy bullet proof vehicles for Buhari: SUVs, Sedans, etc.
As details of huge funds disbursed by Dasuki’s office continue to appear, indications emerged that the former NSA is set to expose more top Nigerian leaders who benefited from the funds.
Dasuki is being investigated over the procurement of arms in the armed forces from 2007 to 2015.
Ex-NSA was accused of using his office to award fabricated arms contracts, but he has rejected the accusation, saying that jonathan approved all the contracts he awarded.
