The former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki, hope for early release from detention may not be feasible in the short run going by accounts of President Muhammadu Buhari’s biographer, John Paden.

Dasuki is standing trial for embezzlement of over $15 billion earmarked for purchase of equipment for troops fighting Boko Haram insurgents in the North East.



The ECOWAS court on Tuesday ordered the Federal Government to release the ex-NSA from prison.

In the book on the President, “Muhammadu Buhari – The Challenges of Leadership in Nigeria,” Paden said Dasuki’s release from detention may not happen soon.

In Chapter 15 of the book focusing on “Military Procurement Accountability,” he noted that Buhari believes in confronting any corruption that will undermine the integrity of the military.

Paden also disclosed that such corruption in the military procurement that puts the lives of the ordinary foot soldiers at risk is capable of endangering the Nigeria project itself.

He said: “For Buhari who has said openly that he wants to be remembered for fighting corruption, it will be an unmitigated disaster for his legacy if such a gargantuan fleecing went on in his primary constituency, the military, and he failed to unearth it and punish the culprits.

“Buhari knows that Task Force and Division Commanders knew of and approved these arms purchases; Service Chiefs knew too, Ministers of Defence and Finance knew, Chief of Staff knew, civil servants in the Ministries of Defence and Finance knew, Chief of Staff to the President knew, the Vice President knew, and the President knew. It is why Buhari will keep his foot on Dasuki’s throat until he fesses up.

“Who really was Sambo Dasuki fronting for in Jonathan’s cabinet? That is the main question to which Buhari is also seeking answers.

“As noted throughout this study, Buhari has a strong belief in right and wrong. He also has an abiding respect for the Nigerian military as an institution that can help hold Nigeria together.

“From Buhari’s perspective, if corruption in military procurement undermines the integrity of the military, that corruption must be confronted.

“And if such procurement allegations weaken the military response to Boko Haram and put ordinary foot soldiers at risk, that corruption poses a double threat, endangering even the Nigeria project itself.”

I don't foresee that too...not soon.

Buhari is not God. I hate injustice, bring Dasuki to court for trial that's all I'm saying. He remains a suspect and hv not been pronounced guilty by the court.

You know it when a professor writes out of hunger and personal glory. No wonder our schools are years behind .

yes he has not been pronounced guilty but we all know he shared the money and our soldiers died because of his actions. Dasuki doesn't deserve freedom. when the opposition takes over from buhari let buhari be arrested and detained indefinitely if he commits any similar offence.

our judiciary is corrupt. this corruption war is difficult to win when the government keeps fighting fair and the suspects and their evil SAN fight dirty. the government needs to make a scape goat out of a few goats so the others can vommit theirs out of fear and avoid our yams next time

Any time you commit offence or somebody accused you, may you be taken away from your house, and deny justice.

Even of its false accusations may the enemy hold you to their satisfaction till they're convinced you're innocent. Some of you guys deserve to live in North Korea.... go and read the meaning of democracy again.

My friend, stop being myopic; even the Americans who are often referred to for their standards on human rights, have kept ppl (Al-Qaeda fighters) in prison at Guantanamo Bay for several years without charging them to court.
The Nigerian govt did even better than the Americans; since it at least presented Dasuki before a court of law; whereas those in Guantanamo were never even allowed the whiff of a court - in blatant violation of all international laws and human rights.
What Dasuki and his cohorts did is unforgivable; imagine deliberately endangering the lives of their pwn soldiers not to mention the loss of so many civilian lives; families broken and torn apart; dreams and future of individuals destroyed or changed forever; can you imagine the untold hardship of the supposed lucky survivors now in various IDP camps - he should be shot along with anyone involved.

The SGF who used N270m meant to take care of IDP camp to cut grass is a saint abi??

Buhari needs to know that there are some brain dead whites just looking to put food on his own table

pada or paden should come I eat my shiit on the recession for all I care he was paid for what he did.

you are not very intelligent. false accusation when some of the people Dasuki gave our money to returned part of the money already. phone thieves are burnt alive in this country out of people's anger and frustration yet you can come here and defend the man who shared arms money and caused the death of many of our soldiers protecting the territorial integrity of this nation. shame on you. Dasuki will be held for as long as possible. if you don't like it jump off a cliff

What of brutai, the houses he bought in dubai was from arms procurement money too.
This una yeye president should jail in too

another unintelligent wailer. those Dasuki gave our arms money to have admitted they collected money from him. Dasuki himself admitted he shared the money as directed by your hero the ineffectual B. in a sane country those involved will be cooling off in jail already but our judiciary is messed up. only the poor man gets to go to jail. think about it. if a poor man admits he picked something that doesn't belong to him he would have been sentenced to 10years. the only reason this big thieves are free is because they have the billions to hire the best lawyers, delay the case, bribe judges and escape justice. have you ever asked yourself why ibori was acquitted here in Nigeria and found guilty in the UK? that's because only the poor goes to jail here. as long as the judiciary stands in the way of justice then the masses will continue to suffer. the country is a joke already and it's time these thieves realise they can't just get away with anything they do

You're the one that's unintelligent here. In my comment I said that Buhari has no right to locked up and accused and refuse to bring him to court for trial. Don't forget that Buhari contributed somehow in all this corruption in Nigeria. If Buhari didn't overthrew democratically elected government, the likes of IBB, ABACHA, OBJ etc wouldn't hv come into power. He, Buhari truncated our democratical process and return Nigeria to military rule and these military men introduced stealing with impunity to Nigeria.

Dasuki should die or rot in jail as if it will epp us out of recession !!!

i m yet to understand the mental levels of some people in this country so if buhari said you are a thief automaticaly it becomes truth, and if he said you are a saint, immidiatary you become saint. This country is really a big zoo.

Likewise every other politician and past head of states that hv made people lost their life by not doing the roads that caused accidents and deaths of these Nigerians.

He said: “For Buhari who has said openly that he wants to be remembered for fighting corruption, it will be an unmitigated disaster for his legacy if such a gargantuan fleecing went on in his primary constituency, the military, and he failed to unearth it and punish the culprits.

They have withdrawn Saraki's charges o. Mr kwarupshun. Just say it's because Dasuki arrested you and lets hear word

Sir i don't think this is how to make a scapegoat out of anyone. Things should be done properly, you can't detain someone unlawfully cause you feel he did wrong and deserves to be punished. That isn't your call to make, it could be anyone tomorrow

yes bro if that is what it will take to send th right message. These people need to b scared of the office not to see it as a vacation destination, they keep seeing it as a place they get away it for stealing public fund by just spending a few from d stolen funds. It's not ideal but the nigeria problem too is unorthodox

lol ignorance and more ignorance. buhari was not part of the coup that over threw shagari. he was flown all the way from the north east to take over after the leader died in the coup. go and read your history books then come back and argue

really? why fight fair when the umpire is compromised? I bet you won't condemn the lynching of that hungry man who tried to steal a generator without hurting anyone but you want Dasuki who is responsible for the death of many of the soldiers safeguarding our country against boko haram to walk free. what is good for the poor man is good for the rich
