The immediate-past NSA boss had approached the court praying for the enforcement of its earlier order of November 3 that he could travel for three weeks to seek medical assistance for his ailment.

In his verdict, Justice A‎demola Adeniyi, insisted that Sambo must be allowed to travel without delay.

Ademola ruled: “Court order must be obeyed. What is wrong in the defendant travelling and coming back to face trial? Only a fit person can stand for trial and investigation. My own orders will not be flouted.”
