A Federal High Court in Abuja Friday invited the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami (SAN) over the inability of former National Security Adviser (NSA), Mohammed Dasuki to travel abroad on health ground.

The court’s invitation to the AGF was informed by complaint by Dasuki’s lawyer, Joseph Daudu (SAN) that, despite the order made by the court on November 3, allowing Dasuki to travel abroad, he was being prevented from embarking on the trip by security agents, who have allegedly laid siege on his Abuja home.

Lawyer from the Federal Ministry of Justice, Labaran Magaji denied Daudu’s claim that the state had prevented his client from travelling abroad as ordered by the court.

Ruling, Justice Adeniyi Ademola, who expressed concern about Daudu’s complaint that officials of the Department of State Services (DSS) have frustrated the execution of the November 4 order, said the AGF was new in office, it was necessary that he be invited to be briefed on issues surrounding the case.

“Having perused the processes filed by the applicant, particularly the motion on notice dated 9th November 2015 and the respondent’s counter processes, it is important that the Attorney general of the Federation, being the chief law officer of the country, comes to court to the briefed about the issue,” the judge said.

Justice Ademola noted that from the fresh motion on notice and counter affidavit filed by parties in the case, he was not happy about the scenario that was playing out. He said he was uncomfortable that the court’s subsisting order was reportedly not obeyed.

He adjourned to November 16 for hearing of the new motion and counter-motions filed by parties.

Dasuki is, in his motion, seeking among others, an order compelling the FG and its agents, especially operatives of the DSS to immediately vacate his premises on 13, John Kadija Street, Asokoro, Abuja.

The ex-NSA claimed that men of the DSS have constituted threat to his life and that he was prevented from traveling abroad to attend to his ailing health pursuant to an earlier order contained in a ruling by Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court, Abuja.

He stated that the judge had, by his order made on November 3, ordered the release of his travel documents to enable him attend to his pressing health needs abroad.

Dasuki wants the court to order the removal of “all human and non-human barricades, bulwarks and or siege laid around, about and across” his residence at No. 13 John Kadiya Street, Asokoro District, Abuja.

He also prayed for an extension the court’s order made on November 3, to make up for the delay caused by the siege on his house.

Dasuki equally wants the court to dispense with his appearance from court during the hearing of the application.

In a supporting affidavit, the ex-NSA stated that “by the act and overt aggression of the complainant/privies, the security and life of the defendant/applicant is being constantly threatened.”
