President Muhammadu Buhari has reiterated that those persons who collected monies from former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd) would be prosecuted and jailed.
He made the comments in an interview with BBC Hausa radio service.
His words: “Remember during the campaigns, we said Nigeria is facing three things and nobody disputed that assertion. Firstly, there was widespread insecurity – a war in the north-east, while the country’s oil was being stolen at random in the south; secondly, there is massive unemployment.
“Thirdly, bribery and corruption was basically suffocating the country. If we don’t kill these monsters, this country would go down. “That is why those who stole monies meant for arms procurement and shared it among themselves are being arrested and are being shown documents so that they would be asked to refund the money or face prosecution.
“We would use those documents to prove what they stole, collect all the assets acquired from the proceeds and then jail them.”
