The State Security Service (SSS) is reportedly refusing to release former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC for questioning.
Dasuki was arrested by the SSS on Tuesday after about a month-long siege on his residence in Abuja.
Senior lawyer heading the former NSA’s legal team, Joseph Daudu, said that he was aware the EFCC applied to Justice Adeniyi Ademola to revoke the bail his court granted Mr. Dasuki.
He also said he was aware the application was pending before the court. But a source at the EFCC told this newspaper that the anti-graft agency was working hard on getting the SSS to release Dasuki to it for questioning.
Another source at the commission said if the SSS insists on not releasing him, operatives of the EFCC might go to the SSS’ office to interrogate the former NSA.
