As part of the ongoing trial of Former National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki, the Federal High Court in Abuja was, yesterday, informed that the weapons found in the Asokoro residence of Dasuki , barely 48 hours after he left Office in 2015, belong to the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA).
These information was contained in Dasuki’s statement made to the operatives of the Department of State Security Service (DSS) tendered and admitted as exhibit by Justice Adeniyi Ademola.
The weapons were said to be for the use of the Security Details attached to him as the National Security Adviser (NSA) for protection purposes.
An operative of DSS, Mr. Samuel Ogbu, who is also a prosecution witness stated this when asked to read in the open court the statement made by Dasuki during his interrogation by DSS before he was charged to court.
Under cross examination by counsel to Dasuki, Mr. Ahmed Raji (SAN), the witness said that Dasuki in his statement confirmed that the weapons were for the ONSA and for the protection of the NSA.
The witness also said that Dasuki claimed in his written statement that the weapons were to be returned to the ONSA by the security details at the end of the day.
