Court Orders SSS Again To Allow Dasuki Leave Nigeria For Medical Treatment

A Federal High Court in Abuja today has again ordered the Department of State Security Services, SSS, to vacate the residence of a former National Security Adviser, NSA, Sambo Dasuki, in Asokoro Abuja, and to also obey its order by allowing him to travel out of the country for medical attention.

Justice Adeniyi Ademola gave the order today after Mr. Dasuki had returned to court to report the Nigerian government for refusing to allow him enforce his fundamental rights.

“A Court order must be obeyed,” Mr. Ademola said.

He also said there was nothing wrong in allowing Mr. Dasuki to travel abroad for medical treatment, saying “only a fit person can stand for trial and investigation. My own orders will not be flouted”.
