New information revealed by SR has showed that Senate President Bukola Saraki blackmailed officials of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to "bribe" him with N250million as “hush” funds after the senator had found out that ex-President Goodluck Jonathan had illicitly approved N60billion for the former National Security Advisor (NSA), Sambo Dasuki, to purchase "arms".
An inside source, who is a senior CBN official, disclosed that bank officials paid the "bribe" to Saraki, who was not the Senate President at the time, to ensure that he and other senators kept silent about the irregular withdrawals by the NSA and the Jonathan administration.
