The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Garba Shehu, said President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration ordered the release of Sambo Dasuki and Omoyele Sowore despite not agreeing to the verdict of the court.

According to Garba  who spoke during an interview with Channels Television’s Politics Today on Wednesday,the act by the Federal Government was to set an important example to the world that it adheres to the rule of law.

“The government is not compromising anything. The government wants to set an important example of obedience to the law even when you disagree with what the court says you should do,” he said.
