Former National Security Adviser, NSA, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd), has restated his readiness to defend himself and clear allegations on the criminal charges of unlawful possession of fire arms brought against him by the Federal Government only if there will be free access to his lawyers.
Dasuki told the Federal High Court in Abuja that the Federal Government no longer had moral and legal rights to continue his trial, having disobeyed the order of bail granted him since November 3, 2015. According to his counsel, Mr. Joseph Daudu (SAN), Dasuki premised his prayer on the fact that the government was in contempt of the court in relation to the charges filed against him.
Daudu, while arguing the motion, claimed that since November 3, 2015, when his client was re-arrested by operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, after perfecting the bail conditions, he had since been held in custody without trial or reasons made known to him.
