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.
Sambo Dasuki who has been detained for about a year by the Department of State Services (DSS) over allegations of corruption lost his father Alhaji Ibrahim Dasuki yesterday in Abuja.
His late father who was a former Sultan of Sokoto, died at the age of 93.
The Sultan will be buried on Tuesday November 15, 2016 after the 2.00pm afternoon prayers at Hubbaren Shehu Usman Dan Fodio Site in Sokoto State.
Former NSA, Sambo Dasuki has been detained by the Federal Government since December 1, 2015 in spite of the bails granted him by three different High Courts in Abuja. The ECOWAS Court had also ordered his release.
It will be noted that 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.
