The Department of State Security Services, SSS, has placed former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, under house arrest.
Mr. Dasuki was first arrested by the SSS in July after a prolonged siege on his Abuja home.
He was charged to court with illegal possession of arms and money laundering.
Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court last Tuesday granted Mr. Dasuki’s request for his passport to be released, to enable him receive treatment abroad.
However, PREMIUM TIMES gathered that the former NSA’s plan to travel on Wednesday night was thwarted by the SSS.
A source who declined to be named for security reasons said the SSS had succeeded in getting a warrant to enable them keep him under house arrest until the next adjourned date.
“The DSS suspects that the former NSA may not return to the country and are therefore, doing everything to make sure he does not leave Nigeria,” the source said.
When PREMIUM TIMES visited the residence of Mr. Dasuki Thursday, there was no sign of SSS personnel like in the past. There were however three men in civilian clothes sitting in front of the house. We could not confirm their identities.
“Most of them are inside and they have confined him to a House arrest,” our source said.
The SSS could be reached. The has yet to announce a new spokesperson since the retirement of Marlyn Ogar.
So this is it? Arresting and releasing?

ReplyDeleteThis issue is simply a personal beef being settled publicly and politically. The saying goes that when one sets out for revenge, be sure to dig 2 graves..one for yourself and one for your enemy. I don't see this Dasuki Fiasco ending well for all involved.
ReplyDeletePolitical vendetta. And
ReplyDeleteAbuse of power.

ReplyDeleteAs far as am concerned this is all political witch hunting... it's almost 6 months the new administration took over and all they do is probe individuals involved in Jonathan's administration. They should concentrate on national security issues, unemployment,poor infrastructure amongst others. All we hear is how someone at the top is being relieved of his job, made to face trial and a new person taking over. It's now overwhelming I must say.
ReplyDeleteLet's move past this so we can see tangible development.
He should be dealt with. If a man can be so heartless as to buy substandard military hardware and combat helicopters for our gallant soldiers who are risking their lives everyday to protect us, then he deserves to be in jail.
ReplyDeleteEveryday we hear military aircraft crashing, while some people are busing making profits from buy these substandard hardware.
If he has a case to answer, let him answer it.
