Sambo DasukiFormer NSA has cancer

The court has granted a request by the former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki, to travel to the United Kingdom, to receive specialised Cancer treatment.

Dasuki's request was granted by the presiding Judge, Justice Adeniyi Ademola, based on health grounds.

Justice Ademola also dismissed the prosecution’s argument that the former NSA should not be allowed to travel, because the ailment can also be treated in Nigeria.
