BREAKING: Allow Dasuki To Go, Court Tells DSS

A Federal High Court in Abuja has granted a former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki bail.

This means that the Department of States Services, DSS, which has held the embattled NSA in its custody for over two years, will be forced to release him.

Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu, in her ruling, granted Dasuki bail in the sum of N200m bail and two sureties each in like sum.

She ordered that the sureties, who must be public servants of no less than Grade Level 16, must deposit evidence of last promotion to the court registrar.

Justice Ojukwu further said should there be any further reason to interrogate him, DSS could only invite and interview him between the hours of 9am and 6pm on working days.

Dasuki is facing charges over the diversion of the sum of $2.1 billion arms funds in different courts of the FCT.

He is also being charged for unlawful possession of firearms at a Federal High Court in Abuja.
