In an interview he had with BBC, President Muhammadu Buhari, said everyone who who were involved in the $2bn arms deal scam with Sambo Dasuki, ex-NSA would be jailed. The President said, "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," he said.
“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, he further stated.
“We would use those documents to prove what they stole, collect all the assets acquired from the proceeds and then jail them," he said.
