$2.9b Arms Deal: Buhari Orders Dasuki to Be Arrested

Nigeria President Buhari on Tuesday night ordered the arrest of the former NSA,  Sambo Dasuki (Rtd), for allegedly siphoning billions of dollars earmarked for arms purchases.

In ordering the arrest, President Buhari observed that the actions of the erstwhile NSA brought the nation to international ridicule as the failure to procure the arms incapacitated the military in the face of the insurgency orchestrated by the Boko Haram sect.
