Again, Court grants Dasuki bail

Again, Abuja Federal High has again on Monday granted bail to Nigeria’s former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki.

Dasuki, who served under former President Goodluck Jonathan has been on trial for misappropriating $68m fund meant for the country’s military hardware since 2015, when President Muhammadu Buhari assumed office.

Courts have granted him bail a number of times but the Federal Government refused to let him go.

Sambo Dasuki was charged on 19 counts of fraud, money laundering and criminal breach of trust at the high court in the capital Abuja.

He pleaded not guilty on all counts.
