Nigeria's Former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, was on Tuesday rearrested by the DSS after his freedom from Kuje prisons following his fulfillment of bail conditions offered him.
An EFCC agent earlier had said that the DSS would re-arrest the former NSA after his release on bail.
“We will obey court order to release Dasuki on bail but we may only return him to DSS custody because he was on remand warrant of a Chief Magistrate’s Court, which was obtained by the DSS, when we asked the agency to make him available to us for prosecution,” the EFCC agent said according to The Nation.
“I think the remand warrant may have to do with security issues beyond our purview. In line with inter-agency cooperation, we took custody of Dasuki from the DSS, we will return him there. It is left to Dasuki to approach another court to vacate the remand warrant got by the DSS,” the agent added..
Dasuki is being investigated for allegedly supervising the laundering of $2 billion in funds meant for the procurement of arms for Nigeria’s military.
He was initially arrested by the DSS on December 1, 2015 and handed over to the EFCC the following day.
