Human rights lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana (SAN), said on Sunday that there was no legal justification for the re-arrest of the immediate past National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki, and the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, after they were granted bails by different courts.
Falana in a statement said as a President who won an election on the promise to fight corruption and end impunity in the country, President Muhammadu Buhari was duty-bound to ensure that all organs and agents of government respected the law.
The senior advocate added that the President should restrain overzealous security personnel from engaging in impunity that could expose the government to undue embarrassment.
Falana said, “One of the reasons why Nigerians voted for the candidate of the All Progressive Congress, Gen. Mohammadu Buhari (rtd) during the last general elections was his promise to fight corruption and end impunity in the country. Upon winning the election, President Buhari further pledged to abide by the Rule of Law.
