Daudu also said Dasuki’s continued detention, despite several orders granting him bail, is giving foreign investors the notion that court orders are not obeyed in the country.

The former National Security Adviser (NSA),

Dasuki’s lawyer, Mr. Joseph Daudu (SAN) said the re-arrest of his client by the Department of State Services (DSS) after he met the requirements of his bail, is sending the wrong signal to the world.

Punch reports that Daudu also said Dasuki’s continued detention, despite several orders granting him bail, is giving foreign investors the notion that court orders are not obeyed in the country.

He also said “The most obvious evidence of the breach of the orders of the court is that the defendant is still in the custody and brought to this court by the Department of State Service.”

Dasuki has accused Buhari of instigating his continued detention, stressing that Mr. President betrayed his emotions during the media chat when he openly told Nigerians that the former NSA and Nnamdi Kanu, the pro-Biafra leader, could not be released on bail because they would jump bail.

The former NSA also sued the the Federal Government, demanding N500m ad damages for the infringement of his rights.
