ABUJA – The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN), says he has directed the Department of State Security Services to release the duo of the immediate-past National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki, and ‘RevolutionNow’ protest convener, Mr. Omoyele Sowore from custody.
As of the time of filing this report on Tuesday, final documentation was being concluded for the release of the two men at the headquarters of the DSS in Abuja.
While Dasuki has been in the DSS’ custody since December 2015, Sowore was rearrested on December 6 barely 24 hours of being released from custody that lasted over four months.
