President Muhammadu Buhari is reported to have directed relevant authorities to recover funds said to have been misappropriated by former National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki (Rtd), and set him free.
This revelation is coming that a time when a Professor of International Studies and author of Buhari’s biography, ‘Muhammadu Buhari: The Challenges of Leadership in Nigeria’ had stated that there was no rift between the President and Dasuki, pointing out that they are in-laws.
Disclosing this yesterday October 10, 2016, in Abuja, an aide to Buhari assured that the former NSA will be released once the misappropriated fund is returned.
The aide said, “I can tell you that the President is not comfortable with the continued detention of Dasuki despite the offences he allegedly committed against Nigeria and its people.
“The only condition Mr. President has asked Dasuki to fulfil is to refund the huge sum of public funds which were allegedly diverted under his watch as the National Security Adviser.
