The Economic Community of West Africa State (ECOWAS) Court has imposed a fine of N15 000 000 against Nigeria as compensation for former National Security Adviser, Colonel Muhammadu Sambo Dasuki, whose release it has ordered.
The regional court held that the detention of Dasuki violated both national and international laws on the right of persons and citizens to freedom of liberty.
In a judgment that lasted over one hour, the regional court dismissed the allegations of unlawful possession of firearms and economic crimes allegedly committed by Dasuki adding that the Nigeria government missed the track because the applicant applied before the court for the enforcement of his breached and contravention of fundamental right.
