Olalekan Adetayo, Abuja

The Department of State Services may any time from now release the detained former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.), on bail.

A top official of the Federal Government, who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed this to journalists on Tuesday evening.

The official said the DSS had already given the commitment that Dasuki would be released on bail once he met all the conditions given him by the court.

“We have confirmation from the DSS that Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.) will be allowed to go on bail if he meets the conditions set for him by the court,” the source simply said.

The DSS was said to have earlier in the day been served court papers showing that Dasuki had met all his bail conditions.
