The former National Security Adviser
(NSA), Sambo Dasuki, will ?not be
attending his father's burial which is
billed to take place in Sokoto later today,
Tuesday, November 15, Daily Trust is
reporting.
Dasuki is currently in a detention facility
owned by the Department of State
Services (DSS) over an allegation of
corruption.
For nearly a year now, he had been held
concerning a scandalous $2.2 billion
supposedly meant for the purchase of
arms to prosecute the war against
insurgency but which was reportedly
distributed among top politicians.
He was arrested on December 1, 2015 and
has remained in detention despite the
various bails granted him by the courts as
well as the ECOWAS Court.
His father, the
deposed Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Ibrahim
Dasuki, died on Monday, November 14, in
Abuja at the age of 93.
He would be buried after the 2 pm
afternoon prayers at the Hubbaren Shehu
Usman Dan Fodio site in Sokoto state.?
Meanwhile, some Nigerians have
expressed belief that Sambo Dasuki is
facing the same predicament suffered by
President Muhammadu Buhari as a
military leader.
Buhari was arrested as a military leader
by Sambo Dasuki. He was thereafter
detained for years and not allowed any
chance to pay his last respect to his
mother that died.
Today, Buhari is an elected president
while Sambo Dasuki is in detention and
would not be attending his father's
burial.
