SHOCKING revelations by Sambo Dasuki

After being arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS)
and handed over to the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday, December 2, 2015, former
National Security Adviser (NSA) Sambo Dasuki has listed
some of his accomplice.
According to a source who spoke with The nation, the ex-NSA
made some “mind-boggling” revelations on the arms contracts
on Tuesday after being arrested.
Former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki makes
stunning confessions about accomplice in arms deal scandal

A report by the National Task Force on Illegal Importation of
Firearms (NATFORCE) on December 2, that Dasuki aided Boko
Haram in the importation of illegal arms and other ammunition.
And in his confession during the interrogation by the EFCC, a
source said: “When Dasuki was brought in, he initially refused to
write any statement, alleging that he had been subjected to media
trial.
“I think the ex-NSA decided not to open up based on the advice of
his lawyers that he should leave everything for the open court.
“The EFCC operatives, however, obliged Dasuki a copy of the
statement by a former Director of Finance in the  Office of the
National Security Adviser (ONSA), Shaibu Salisu in which the latter
made some implicating statements.
“Dasuki, who was shocked by Salisu’s confessions, repeatedly
asked: ‘You mean Salisu wrote all these! You mean he said these!
Give me a pen and paper’.
“Thereafter, Dasuki decided to open a can of worms. He gave a
long list of PDP chieftains who collected money from the Office of
the NSA.
“He mentioned the names of a former Deputy National Chairman of
PDP, ex-governors and ex-ministers and many others.

“As I am talking to you, Dasuki is still writing his statement. The
disclosures of the ex-Director of Finance in ONSA  have assisted
greatly in getting to the bottom of the armsgate.
“So, the investigation is still on. We will certainly arrest more
suspects soon.”
The Nation also reports that EFCC may extend its probe to the
seizure of  $9million cash by South Africa and bring everyone
involved for questioning as regards the botched deal.
Also, former Sokoto state governor, Attahiru Bafarawa; AIT
Chairman Raymond Dokpesi and former minister Bashir
Yuguda, who have also been linked to the arms deal, were said
to be perfecting their bail conditions as at yesterday.
An EFCC source also revealed that the anti-graft agency was
planning to arraign some of the suspects in court to enable
them have the over 22 suspects being interrogated in custody
as the agency is said to be mindful of a situation in which the
high-profile suspects will rush to court to in search of
enforcement of their fundamental rights and truncate the
investigation.
“Our investigators have isolated these areas of probe: Were the
funds budgeted for? If not, what informed extra-budgetary
expenses? How much was actually voted for arms procurement?
How were the funds sourced? Who or which agency awarded all the
contracts?

“Who were the contractors? Was there any evidence of delivery of
equipment? What will make any Minister to run to ONSA for funds?
“These are the areas our detectives have been mandated to look
at,” the source informed.
“Some Bureau de Change operators were accomplices of many of
these suspects in custody. We are tracking every transaction.
“On daily basis, we will keep on inviting more suspects because
the syndicate has a complex networking,” the source added.

The Sphere

Photograph by Elena Saavedra Buckley. Once when I was about twelve I was walking down the dead-end road in Albuquerque where I grew up, around twilight with a friend. Far beyond the end of the road was a mountain range, and at that time of evening it flattened into a matte indigo wash, like a mural. While kicking down the asphalt we saw a small bright light appear at the top of the peaks, near where we knew radio towers to occasionally emit flashes of red. But this glare, blinding and colorless, grew at an alarming rate. It looked like a single floodlight and then a tight swarm beginning to leak over the edge of the summit. My friend and I became frightened, and as the light poured from the crest, our murmurs turned into screams. We stood there, clutching our heads, screaming. I knew this was the thing that was going to come and get me. It was finally going to show me the horrifying wiring that lay just behind the visible universe and that was inside of me too. And then, a couple se...

DEMOCRACY DAY SPEECH BY PMB; MAY 29 2016

www.naijaloaded.com My compatriots, It is one year today since our administration came into office. It has been a year of triumph, consolidation, pains and achievements. By age, instinct and experience, my preference is to look forward, to prepare for the challenges that lie ahead and rededicate the administration to the task of fixing Nigeria. But I believe we can also learn from the obstacles we have overcome and the progress we made thus far, to help strengthen the plans that we have in place to put Nigeria back on the path of progress. We affirm our belief in democracy as the form of government that best assures the active participation and actual benefit of the people. Despite the many years of hardship and disappointment the people of this nation have proved inherently good, industrious tolerant, patient and generous. The past years have witnessed huge flows of oil revenues. From 2010 average oil prices were $100 per barrel. But economic and security co...

The Private Life: On James Baldwin

JAMES BALDWIN IN HYDE PARK, LONDON. PHOTOGRAPH BY ALLAN WARREN. Via Wikimedia Commons , licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0 .   In his review of James Baldwin’s third novel, Another Country , Lionel Trilling asked: “How, in the extravagant publicness in which Mr. Baldwin lives, is he to find the inwardness which we take to be the condition of truth in the writer?” But Baldwin’s sense of inwardness had been nourished as much as it had been damaged by the excitement and danger that came from what was public and urgent. Go Tell It on the Mountain and Giovanni’s Room dramatized the conflict between a longing for a private life, even a spiritual life, and the ways in which history and politics intrude most insidiously into the very rooms we try hardest to shut them out of. Baldwin had, early in his career, elements of what T. S. Eliot attributed to Henry James, “a mind so fine that it could not be penetrated by an idea.” The rest of the time, however, he did not have this luxury, as pub...
