A Federal High court sitting in Abuja has ordered the Federal Government to release the international passport of embattled former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki. The presiding judge, Justice Ademola Adeniyi in his ruling this morning, said counsel to the Federal government has failed to prove why Dasuki should be denied access to his passport.

The Federal Government yesterday denied an application by Dasuki asking that his passport be released so he can travel abroad for medical treatment. Dasuki is facing a five-count charge bordering on alleged illegal possession of firearms and money laundering.
