Immediate past National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki on Monday dragged the Federal Government before the Federal High Court, Abuja seeking the protection of his life.
The former NSA who was represented by his counsel Mr. Ahmed Raji, SAN, has been kept under house arrest by armed operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, since November 3.
Dasuki is seeking an order of the court to enforce his fundamental rights to dignity and security of life.
He is also seeking a mandatory order of the court compelling the Federal Government and its agents, including the DSS, to vacate his house located at 13, John Kadija Street, Asokoro with immediate effect.
Dasuki is praying the court for permission to keep a re-rescheduled appointment with his physician abroad, by extending the earlier leave that was granted to him on November 3.
The court had on November 3, granted Dasuki permission to travel overseas for medical treatment of his budding cancer, but he was stopped at the airport by operatives of the Department of State Services.
No date has been fixed for the matter to be heard.
