Dasuki Indicts Jonathan In $15b Arms Deal by yashau(op): 5:16pm On Jul 08, 2016
Retired Colonel Sambo Dasuki, former
national security adviser to former President
Goodluck Jonathan, has declared his
readiness for trial over the alleged $15
billion arms deals facilitated by his office,
The Nation has reported.
Former national security adviser, Sambo
Dasuki, in court
The report said Dasuki further protested his
continued detention adding that he only
obeyed the directive of former President
Goodluck Jonathan as dictated by civil
service rules.
“I am ready for trial because they have
destroyed my family’s name and my
professional integrity, especially how we
successfully fought Boko Haram and recovered
major towns and cities, not villages.
“They should let my trial start in earnest to
enable Nigerians know the truth from
falsehood.
“I don’t believe in secret trial and there is no
basis for it because the government has filed
all necessary papers in court and attached the
list of witnesses.
“Since the witnesses have become public
knowledge, there is no basis for secret trial,”
Dasuki reportedly said through his
associates and further queried his continued
detention without warrant.

“Since I was detained in the custody of the
Department of State Service (DSS), I have not
been shown any warrant to this effect or court
order.
“I deserve to be shown the warrant of
detention by DSS and the purpose for
restricting me to house arrest. My detention is
unlawful,” he complained pleading with
Nigerians to prevail on the government to
admit him to bail in line in obedience to the
government’s commitment to the rule of law.
“All those who collected funds from ONSA
have been granted bail but I am still in
custody.
“I have been granted bail on all the cases filed
against me by the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission (EFCC), and even DSS, but
I have not been released.
“If all the beneficiaries of the so-called funds
are on bail, what have I done wrong? Nigerians
should help prevail on the government to grant
me bail.
“I cannot rock the boat. I am prepared for
trial. We did everything with national and

security interest,” he said.
“Based on the service rules in the security
circle, I owe it a duty to obey the president
and Commander-In-Chief. Ex-President
Jonathan approved all the expenses incurred
by ONSA.
“I am ready to prove in court how we complied
with the directive of the ex-President,” he
added. https://www.naij.com/884240-15b-dasuki-finally-speaks-prison-indicts-jonathan.html?f&poster=11030

I can't wait for this trial to begin.

It will be nice to see Jonathan's @ss hauled into jail finally, along with his cabal of looters.

I hope wailers will be given the opportunity to wail outside his cell walls

Oh BTW, Mr Dasuki, "my boss made me do it" is not a tenable excuse in court. What happened to resigning when you were asked to commit a crime?

except he produces a memo to that effect or any document where there was a clear directive from the ex-president to pay or transfer monies into certain accounts, he is wasting his time.

It should be televised so that hero of thieves can cease his deceitfulness .... he will be thoroughly embarrassed by his disciple on the path of stealing.
