A FCT High Court on Wednesday rejected anapplication by former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki ,  praying for an indefinite adjournment,pending the compliance of  a bail orderby the Federal Government.
On July 2, 2018, Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu, admittedDasuki from the custody of the Department of State Services, where he had beendetained for two and a half years.
Ojukwu, who granted bail to Dasuki in the sum ofN200m with two sureties in like sum, ruled that the long and continued detentionof the applicant since December 29, 2015, could not be justified.
Dasuki, alongside Bashir Yuguda , former Minister ofState for Finance and former Sokoto State governor, Attahiru Bafarawa , ischarged with 25 counts bordering on conspiracy, bribery, abuse of office andcriminal breach of trust to the tune of N19.4 billion.
Ruling on the application, Justice HusseinBaba-Yusuf, held that there was nothing before the court to show that Dasukihas approached the judge for the enforcement of the order.
He therefore dismissed the application as an abuseof court process.
The judge fixed April 16, April 27 and April 18 forcontinuation of hearing.
