The DSS has refused to release Kanu despite an order by Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the federal high court, Abuja.
President Muhammadu Buhari, in his media chat last week, gave an indication that Kanu, who is accused of treason, ownership of unlawful society and illegal possession of firearms, will not be released anytime soon.
