Rather than charge Dasuki to court, the DSS held him captive in spite of several national and regional court orders demanding his release. The Court of Appeal, Abuja Division, issued the last of such court orders demanding his release on July 15, 2019. El-Zakzaky’s arrest and prolonged detention alongside his wife, Malama Zeenah against several court orders, has continued to generate public debates. In spite of court orders demanding his release, he had remained in custody until December 24, alongside Dasuki. Recall that the government has toiled with his release orders until Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu gave 24-hour to the DSS.
