Sambo Dasuki is set to regain freedom after spending over two years in the custody of DSS.
The Former National Security Adviser has met all the bail conditions pressed on him by the Federal High Court in Abuja on July 2, 2018, his lawyer, Ahmed Raji disclosed. According to Raji, a letter by the Deputy Chief Registrar of the Federal High Court confirming that Dasuki had fulfilled all the bail conditions would today (Tuesday) be presented to the Department of State Service which has been holding him in custody since December 29, 2015.
Dasuki has been in detention camp of Department of State Service (DSS) since December 29, 2015, when he was rearrested by security operatives. The Federal High Court in Abuja had on July 2 granted bail to the ex-NSA from the custody of the DSS, where he had been detained for two and a half years.
Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu, who granted bail to Dasuki in the sum of N200m with two sureties in like sum, ruled that “the long and continued detention” of the applicant since December 29, 2015, could not be justified.
