Court to DSS: Allow Dasuki to travel for treatment

by nadum 13 Nov , 2015  

A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Friday, ordered the Department of State Services (DSS), to allow a former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd), to travel abroad for medical attention.

Dasuki is seeking the enforcement of the court’s earlier order which gave him three-week permission to seek medical treatment abroad.

Ruling on the matter Friday, Justice A‎demola Adeniyi, insisted that the ex-NSAmust be allowed to travel without delay.

“Court order must be obeyed. What is wrong in the defendant travelling and coming back to face trial?

“Only a fit person can stand for trial and investigation. My own orders will not be flouted,” the judge ruled.
