DSS OFFICIALS STORM RESIDENT OF EX NSA ,SAMBO DASUKI IN ABUJA,SOKOTO

Operatives of the Department of State Services on Thursday invaded the Asokoro, Abuja residence of the former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki.
It was learnt that the operation which was said to have been authorized by the top hierarchy of the DSS, was in connection with the secret probe into how billions of naira allocated for the war against terrorism was allegedly looted.
The personnel were said to have searched the house and left after some time.
It could not immediately ascertain whether Dasuki was arrested or detained overnight by his unexpected gun-wielding visitors, but security sources said it is highly likely that the ex-NSA may be whisked away or invited subsequently for interrogation on how he administered the billions that was released for prosecution of the terrorism war in the North-East.
Sources described the onslaught against Dasuki as the “fore-taste of what would likely happen to senior officials in the past administration who were suspected to have embezzled or mismanaged public funds.”
The former NSA coordinated the war against terrorism and his office received billions naira to prosecute the counter-insurgency operations against the violent Boko Haram sect.
Dasuki who was appointed as NSA by former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2012, was relieved of his appointment by President Muhammadu Buhari a few days ago.
It was gathered that the operation against was Dasuki was two-pronged as a team of DSS operatives was also deployed to his family house in Sokoto.
The source said, “The invasion of Dasuki’s residence is not unconnected with the determination of the current administration to recover all looted funds by senior officials of the past government, so no one should read any political motives to it.”
The DSS spokesperson, Marilyn Ogar could not be reached for comment as she did not respond to calls to her phone.
