Alhaji Ahmed Raji SAN is counsel to Dasuki, he said: “I would want to appeal to Mr. President to please allow his client Sambo Dasuki to enjoy the bail that was granted to him. I cannot join words with you mr president. I have the greatest respect for you, both in your official and personal capacities. My appeal is just that I am begging you in God's name, please allow my client Sambo Dasuki enjoy his bail.”
