Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) through his spokesperson, Chief Olisa Metuh, has described the siege laid on the Abuja residence of Sambo Dasuki, former national security adviser (NSA), as “unconstitutional”. Metuh accused President Muhammadu Buhari of going the ways of dictators, saying the last time when a situation of such nature happened was during the military era. He said Buhari has been treating those who served under former president, Goodluck Jonathan as “prisoners of war”, warning that the party would not tolerate such “illegal acts”. “I came into Abuja today because I read the situation about the invasion of the house of the former NSA and his detention,” he told reporters in Abuja. “I drove to his house to see him and to find out what is happening. Then about seven or eight security operatives came out and they said that I cannot see him because the house is under security watch. And I asked them, security watch in terms of treason or terrorism? And they said they are not in a position to say. “If he is under security watch on account of corruption or any other reason, then it’s totally against the constitution of this country because this is a democracy and democratic tenets and principles apply. “We are not guilty because we served under a former president. We are not guilty because we lost an election. We are not prisoners of war and we should not be treated like prisoners of war.”
