REUBEN ABATI: I Collected N500m From Dasuki As Xmas Gift To Journalists Read Mor by TheHerald: 2:45pm On Oct 26, 2016
Former Special Adviser on Media to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reuben Abati, has allegedly confessed to collecting N500million from former National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki

Abati was picked up by EFCC personnel on Monday, October 24, 2016 and has been kept indefinitely by the anti-graft agency pending the conclusion of interrogations.

The former Presidency spokesperson has been accused of receiving the sum of N500million from erstwhile National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki.

Dasuki is in custody of federal law enforcement authorities after allegedly misappropriating over $2.2billion earmarked for equipping the military.

Former National Security Adviser Sambo Dasuki (R) allegedly oversaw a sprawling embezzlement scheme that saw “phantom contracts” awarded for personal gain while under-equipped troops fought better-armed militants.

“Abati has admitted to receiving N500million from Dasuki”, an EFCC source said.

“He has also told us that the money was used to run his office. But we aren’t done with him just yet and we aren’t satisfied with some of his explanations regarding how the money was spent. Details have been rather sketchy from him”, offered the EFCC source.

Through its social media pages, EFCC said Abati “is presently telling operatives of the Commission his role in the alleged mismanagement of the nation’s resources through his office. We shall keep you posted.”

Dasuki was really a General in the politics of appeasement. From mallams to pastors to journalists, who can claim not to have benefitted from those illegal disbursements apart from me? wink How does the office of the NSA translate into funds distribution for irrelevant purposes?

I know most Nigerians are corrupt. Even the editor of this write-up.

But until Dasuki is allowed to av an open court trial. No single person will be jailed. Cos Dasuki that they ALLEGEDLY said shared money. Has not been allowed to even talk.

Dis Buhari govt is finished, only Buhari will arrest judges, and wants to be the judge to his own case, dis is ridiculous, and gradually if nothing is done, frm now till next year 2017, our democracy will be in a serious danger, mark my words, people will no longer have faith in our courts.

Brother hw do u expect conviction with this crop of corrupt judges we have? absolute impossible! The NJC is corrupt as the judges. So who discipline who? Ain't u suprised no any political bigwig is convicted yet? coz they share the money with judges! Just imagine, having justice Zainab Bulkachuwa, Ricky tarfa, Joseph Daudu as member of NJC, what else do u expect from such a useless commission?

I have already lost faith in the courts.

If they can detain FFK without charge for almost 1 week now, we are all in trouble.

One does not have to be detained to be questioned, or investigated, especially when No criminal intent has been established against the person prior.

All the information we have heard so far are coming from only one source, the media or EFCC. We have not heard anything from the people accused of these crimes. Even God heard from both sides before judgment how much less human.
