FORMER National Security Adviser (NSA) Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd) has denied campaigning for the All Progressives Congress (APC)

He said on Sunday that he never worked at cross-purposes with former President Goodluck Jonathan.Col Dasuki said he was only involved in an attempt at forging an alliance between the Action Congress of Nigeria , the All Nigeria Peoples Party and the Congress for Progressive Change before the 2011 elections.

The statement reads: “My attention has been drawn to a false report to the effect that I discreetly campaigned for President Muhammadu Buhari and his party APC while I was serving as President Goodluck Jonathan’s National Security Adviser. “The truth is that I was involved in an attempt at forging an alliance between the Action Congress of Nigeria , the All Nigeria Peoples Party and the Congress for Progressive Change among others prior to 2011 elections which was not successful. My involvement in that political process ended after the elections of 2011.”Dasuki said he made full disclosures on his relationships with Buhari, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Chief Ogbonnaya Onu to ex-President Jonathan before accepting the offer of NSA.
