Nigeria’s former national security adviser Sambo Dasuki has said he has no feud with President Muhammadu Buhari. The government refused him to release despite multiple court orders to that effect, fuelling rumours that Buhari was using security agencies to settle old scores with Dasuki. “I have no feud with anybody,” Dasuki told the Hausa Service of Voice of America on Wednesday. Government-backed National Human Rights Commission also asked the government to respect the court orders on Monday. But Nigeria’s attorney-general and minister for justice Abubakar Malami said they were released based on earlier court orders.
