President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the Federal Government was not considering the release of former National Security Adviser (NSA), Col. Sambo Dasuki, from the Department of State Services (DSS) custody.<\/p>\n
The president said that Dasuki, has multiple cases in court, which he must diligently face and resolve.<\/p>\n
Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, told New Telegraph yesterday in Abuja, that the issues on the shoulders of the former NSA were all complicated.<\/p>\n
In response to claims that Buhari does not respect court orders and continues to keep Dasuki in detention, the presidential spokesman said, \u201cthe ex-NSA\u2019s problem is not with President Buhari who I must say has the highest regard for the rule of law.\u201d<\/p>\n
Garba pointed out that Buhari remained the best friend of the rule of law and due process the country has so far seen.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf five courts of the land are trying different cases in which a man is involved and one or two of those courts let the accused persons go home on bail, what happens with the other three cases?<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you are a prisons controller, will you set that person free when you have three other judges directing that he be kept in detention?<\/p>\n
\u201cColonel Dasuki faces a multiplicity of cases and, sadly for him, his hand appears to be showing in more of the cases as recent revelations from the ongoing investigation in the Office of the NSA has shown,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
