Former National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki (rtd) observed the Eid Maulud celebrations behind the walls of Kuje prison. He may also spend the Christmas same place.
DAILY POST recalls that A Federal High Court Judge in Abuja, justice Peter Affem, had on Monday granted Dasuki, alongside four others bail but ordered that they be remanded in prison pending when they meet the bail conditions.
Those detained alongside the former military Colonel were, Attahiru Bafarawa, former Sokoto governor; Bashir Yuguda, former minister of state for finance; Shuaibu Salisu, and Sagir, Bafarawa’s son.
The judge had granted them bail in the sum of N250 million each and ordered that they provide two sureties in like sum as well as deposit their international passports at the court.
Affem while granting the suspects bail held that “bail was not about setting anybody free but that the primary essence of bail is to ensure that the accused person attends trial,” adding that the offences the accused persons were alleged to have committed were bailable and adjourned the case to February 2 and February 3, 2016.
