DSS hands Dasuki over to EFCC

Former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, has been transferred to the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
EFCC will interrogate Mr. Dasuki for his role in the $2.1 billion arms contract scandal.
Mr. Dasuki was arrested by the DSS on Tuesday after about a month-long siege on his residence in Abuja. He has been in their custody since then.
Former DAAR Communications Chairman, Raymond Dokpesi; a former governor of Sokoto state, Attahiru Bafarawa; and a former Minister of State for Finance, Bashir Yuguda are amongst those that have been arrested up by the anti-graft agency.
They were all arrested after being indicted by a presidential committee that investigated arms procurement during the last administration.
The committee said over $2. billion was diverted to purposes other than arms procurement.
