Another Jonathan-era arms scandal is unfolding under Buhari. The NSA told BBC Hausa that Billions disbursed for the purchase of weapons and equipment DISAPPEARED under the sacked Service Chiefs, now ambassadors. He said he hopes Buhari will probe it. #Abayomigate or #Burataigate?
Here’s what he said as translated by Daily Trust,
“It isn’t that we are not working to end the security challenge in the country. The president has done his own part and allocated huge amount of money to purchase weapons but they are yet to be here. We don’t know where they are.”
“It isn’t that we are not working to end the security challenge in the country. The president has done his own part and allocated huge amount of money to purchase weapons but they are yet to be here. We don’t know where they are.”
“I am not saying that the past Service Chiefs have diverted the money, but presently we don’t know where the money is... I can’t say the money was stolen but we didn’t see anything and even the new Service Chiefs said they didn’t see the weapons.”
“It is possible the weapons are on their way coming. Maybe from America, England and other places but as at now, I didn’t see anything and the Service Chiefs too didn’t see any weapons too.”
