The Federal Government says former National Security
Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd) on Monday declined its
offer to an offer to visit his late father, Ibrahim Dasuki, in an
Abuja hospital.
According to Minister for Interior Abdulrahman Danbazau, Sambo
also declined another offer to be in Sokoto throughout the mourning
of his father, saying he (Sambo) preferred to pray for him.
The Minister disclosed this while addressing newsmen in Sokoto on
Tuesday.
”We had discussed with the Director-General, DSS, yesterday and
Sambo was offered to visit his late father on his hospital bed in
Abuja.
”He declined and said he preferred to pray for him. He was also
offered to be in Sokoto throughout the mourning period and he also
declined, preferring to pray for his late father. That was the true
situation,” Danbazau said.
