Highly respected Prof Itse Sagay's recent call on ex-President Goodluck Jonathan to confess his role in the arms deal probe has attracted an angry response from the former President's camp.
The immediate past National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki is being probed for mismanagement of $2.1billion and he has mentioned names of top guns in the Jonathan government as part of the fraud.
Sagay, a professor of Law and Chairman Presidential advisory committee on corruption, called on Dasuki's boss, Jonathan to confess confess his involvement in the deal before he is arrested.
The former president's response contained in a statement issued by one of his ministers, Abubakar Sulaiman, suggested that Professor Sagay's statement was unscholarly. According to the statement, He-Sagay “don’t hang a suspect on the pages of newspaper or via social media until he or she is found guilty by a court of competent jurisdiction”.
