What Dasuki Told Me During Jonathan’s Campaign: Okupe Opens Up by IamSimi(m): 10:47am On Jan 20, 2016
Doyin Okupe, the former senior special
assistant on public affairs to ex-president
Goodluck Jonathan, has reacted to
allegations that companies linked to him
got contracts from the office of the former
National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki.
In a statement released yesterday,
January 19, the former presidential
spokesperson said he never got along
with Dasuki during his tenure, The Cable
reports.

According to him, Dasuki schemed him
out of the reelection campaign of
Jonathan and even threatened to get him
out of Jonathan’s administration.
He said: “ Unknown to many Nigerians, and
quite usual with politics at the top, for
reasons not clearly defined, I never got
along well with colonel Dasuki retired .
“ In fact, he twice told me to my face that he
will get Alhaji Gulak and myself out of
former president Jonathan’s
administration. Colonel Dasuki would never
have patronised me or any associate of
mine. It was for this reason I was totally
schemed out from the entire presidential
campaign in 2015.
“Mr Ilan Salman is my friend and we did
business together few years ago. But I
have not had any business dealing with
him since 2007 when he resigned his
membership of the company we formed
together.
“The name of his offshore company Romix
Technology and the company we ran
together Romix Soilfix International
Limited, bear similar first names ‘Romix’.
But that is where the similarities end.
“Mr Ilan apparently registered his new
company, Romix Technologies after he
resigned from Romix Soilfix International
Limited in 2007. He probably used this
name because we both loved the name
‘Romix’. Even when our South African
partners from whom we derived the name
Romix Soilfix broke up and told us to drop
the name, we both flatly refused.”
He explained further that after Ilan left
the company, he registered two more
companies named Romix farms limited
and Romix homes limited.
According to him, he is not the owner of
Romix Technologies and he has neither
relationship nor financial interest with
it.
Okupe added that he was not aware of
their bidding for contracts from the
office of the National Security Adviser or
their being awarded the contract of the
payment.
He said he did benefit financially from
the proceeds of payment for the said
contract neither can any money be
traced to him, or any member of his
family or associates.
Report recently surfaced that two
companies linked to Okupe allegedly
received at least N1.6 billion
from the former National Security
Adviser in three shady cyber security
deals. According to the report, one of the
agreements had instructions to shut
down online media platforms detected as
friendly to Buhari or critical of Jonathan
ahead of the 2015 poll.

I smell lies..anyways, I believe by the time you (Okupe) feel the horror of the almighty Kuje Prison, you must definitely have a rethink and then tell us the whole truth.

What goes around, comes around. I'm still surprised why DSS and EFCC don't want to take this Dasuki to court so that we will know who actually is guilty or Not .
