The siege on the home of a former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, by officials of the State Security Service, SSS, was still on, Sunday, despite a court order.
Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Friday reacted angrily to the siege on Mr. Dasuki’s house despite an earlier ruling he gave permitting the retired colonel to travel abroad for medical treatment. “My own orders will not be flouted” the judge said on Friday, while re-iterating his stance that the former security chief be allowed to travel for medical treatment.

PREMIUM TIMES could not confirm if the SSS had been served with Friday’s court order as the Service is yet to appoint a spokesperson.

Mr. Dasuki had returned to the court to sue the Federal Government for still plotting to re-arrest him despite the earlier court order.

Justice Ademola said on Friday that “a court order must be obeyed”.

He also said there was nothing wrong in allowing Mr. Dasuki travel abroad for medical treatment, saying “only a fit person can stand for trial and investigation.”

Mr. Dasuki had approached the court last Monday asking for an order to allow him enforce his rights.

In the suit, Mr. Dasuki sought enforcement of his fundamental human rights to dignity and security of his life.

Armed security operatives have been permanently stationed at his residence, closely monitoring in-and-out movements and occasionally checking trunks of vehicles.

PREMIUM TIMES observed that on Sunday, two Trucks belonging to the SSS were parked in front of Mr. Dasuki’s house at No. 13 John Khadiya street, in Asokoro district Abuja on Sunday.

Operatives of the SSS were also seen sitting in front of the House. Mr. Dasuki himself responded to our inquiry asking whether the SSS had left his house via text message to say “ They are yet to comply. At this moment, they are still here”.

The SSS had while reacting to initial reports of the siege on the residence of the former NSA issued a statement saying the “standoff” with Mr. Dasuki is based on a different investigation

The agency said Mr. Dasuki has refused to honour an invitation by a committee investigating arms purchase while he held sway as the NSA.

“It may be recalled that Sambo was initially arrested and charged to court for unlawful possession of firearms and money laundering, for which reason his international passport was seized and on the order of the court, returned to the registrar for custody,” the SSS said in the statement by one Tony Opuiyo.

“What has however brought the seeming standoff between Sambo and the Service, despite the court-ordered release of his international passport on 4th November, 2015, is his refusal to appear before a Committee undertaking the investigation of an entirely different case.”

But Mr. Dasuki reacted swiftly saying he was never invited to appear before the committee.

“I’m not also aware that the committee is operating from the SSS headquarters,” Mr. Dasuki told PREMIUM TIMES. “What I know is that the committee is operating from the office of the National Security Adviser. So why is the SSS the one inviting me?”

Friday’s court order was issued after the SSS statement.

Ok

Chai buhari is a terroristt

Now the great Dasuki can run to the court to seek redress. The same man who was all and all in the security circle few months ago.

This change of government, if not for anything should serve as a lesson to politicians that the days of unaccountability is over and a new boss is in town.

Dasuki sabotaged our nation's security. I don't pity him a bit.

As the NSA he took charge of budget for Defense (billion of dollars involved) and no weapons and ammunitions on ground to justify the money spent, hence BH thrived then. So, let him be brought to justice by hook or crook.

I don't care what anyone here calls me for this my opinion. Left to me, all those who actively brought the security and economic woes we're currently experiencing on us deserve no justice offered by our justice system they themselves flouted while destroying the nation.

Jungle justice is what they deserve. Period.

To bring some of the evil doers who compromised our security and economy for personal interests to deserved justice, we may have to flout some laws.

Let anyone who wishes violent change bring it on. They should be rest assured that Nigeria under PMB will not fret in responding to their violence in equal and appropriate measures.

Exactly!! To bring on Justice we will have to disregard the laws of the zoo republic !!! Every day Buhari keeps proving Kanu right that this country is a zoo!! Finally no one has a monopoly over flouting of the nations law!!

BTW enough of your boasts about Buhari's military strenghths,he has already been tested these last six months and found weak and incompetent!! The NA was even stronger during GEJ's reign than the pathetic bunch we now have under the dullard.

Cry to high heavens as you like. It's your portion.

Contrary to your assertion, the NA has proved more effective and efficient under PMB than under GEJ and every sane person knows this fact.

No amount of protest or blackmailing will make "the zoo" to let "the caged monkey" go except he fulfills his bail condition to the last letter of the conditions. Even at that, "the zoo" may still not let its "prized animal" escape and will await the worst from the chest beaters.

Bring it on and you'll soon know that "enough is enough" already.

The undemocratic and dictatorial character of this Buhari administration is pathetic, annoying and anti-developmental. It is a shame that Nigeria has denigrated into a military-democracy under this accidental APC administration. We can't wait to send them out in 2019

Ok

When the president of ur country can not define "FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHTS" this is wot happens
Oh yes! Dasuki should be investigated but u can't prosecute a dead man!

so they are above obeying the law?

The man should just succumb to the SSS. There is no escaping justice.

Nigeria, a land where anything is possible.

Buhari, let rule of law prevail

animals dont deserve democrazy. its a system only for the civilized. its not for africans. stop this your colo-mentality.

you done be slave man before, dem done release you now, but you fit never releaseee yourself FELA. COLO-MENTALITY

He is innocent until proven guilty by a competent court of law and SSS is not in a position to declare him guilty according to Nigerias laws.

My only problem here is that many APC e-rats mostly from the 'unsustainable South West according to recent statistics' will defend this arrant misbehaviour of the SSS as good deed by Buhari, even when the President may not be aware of what some of these organisations do until it is brought to his attention by his inner caucus who may even shield him away from this acts.

Let us tell the SSS that they are embarrassing tax payers who pay their salaries by disobeying court orders before it becomes a norm.

Meanwhile, why would our respected Army stoop low to threaten Biafran agitators; it is still a Police matter and until the Police says they have been overwhelmed before the Army can be called by the President through the national assembly to intervene under emergency declaration.

Catalonia has declared secessionist ambition from Spain and the Spanish Army has never threatened anyone.
Scotland wanted independence from Britain and a referendum was conducted, the British Army never threatened anyone.
Why is our Army showing utter incompetence by giving undue publicity to the agitators by calling a Press conference and talking rubbish on our behalf?

May God punish people who imposed this old terrorist on us. May the lawlessness he is perpetuating also reach them before his administration run. May they live to regret their actions

Is Nigeria still under a democratic govt or not?
