Pres Buhari and GEJ may soon meet over the alarming revelations from the arms cash probe. Dasuki, who is standing trial for alleged misappropriation of over N31b meant for purchase of arms, has
alleged that all his disbursements were approved by GEJ. .
Sources said some associates of GEJ were arranging a private meeting to enable him straighten out some things with the President. And also, to address some of the allegations in confidence because he is not keen on speaking publicly so as not to heat up the polity.
Also, it has been learnt that some of the suspects facing trial may opt to return looted funds and forfeit some assets in exchange for freedom or light sentences. Former Minister of State for Finance, Alhaji Bashir Yuguda, has indicated his willingness to recover N600m out of the over N1bn traced to him.
Some of the suspects, according to sources close to the investigations, are already overwhelmed by the evidence against them and would prefer the plea bargain option to save time and get lighter jail terms where conviction becomes necessary…… Buhari shld pls pardon them n let go of d money…..
