The Attorney General of the Federation, Mr Abubakar Malami, SAN, said Mr Dasuki’s personal right can be violated for the larger public good.

Malami in a new interview with the Voice of America, Hausa, published on July 13 just obtained by PREMIUM TIMES, said “What I want you to know is that issues concerning law and order under Muhammadu Buhari are sacrosanct and obeying court order is compulsory.
“However you should also know that there is a general consensus world over that where the dispute is only between individuals, then you can consider the issue based on the instant situation. But if the dispute is about an issue that affects an entire nation, then you have to remember that government is about the people not for only an individual.
“So you have to look at it from this perspective. If the issue about an individual coincides with that which affects the people of a nation and you are now saying the government did not obey a court order that infringes on a single person’s rights. Remember we are talking about a person who was instrumental to the deaths of over one hundred thousand people. Are you saying that the rights of one person is more important than that of 100,000 who lost their lives?
“Reports have shown that there was massive mismanagement of funds meant for military hardware which the military could not access and that led to the death of many, embezzlement of the fund and because of that many people have lost their lives. Obeying the court is not the issue per say. Are we going to take the issue of an individual more important than that of the people?
The government’s main responsibility is for and about the people. The essence of governance is to better the lives of its people. So you have to weigh it based on that; the rights of an individual or the rights of the people.”
Mr Malami however, said the government may decide to appeal the court order if it feels compelled to do so.

Working for Buhari, you must be very skilled at giving excuses

So in this case we keep the constitution aside. Buhari making man to lie and disgrace themselves upanda just to obey his dictatorship

How is a man who has not been found guilty be incarcerated for nearly 4yrs?
Malami didn't give any real reason, because there's none.

You guys are so pathetic.. . Even when Dasuki has made all the bail terms?? . Kwantinu, 2019 is around the corner and i've got my PVC

Dasuki is a threat to national security so he can't be released. Even the American government locks people in Guantanamo Bay without trial
