The Court of Appeal, Abuja division, has reinstated the former Director General DG, National Intelligence Agency Mohammed Dauda.

He ordered that his salaries and entitlements since the day of dismissal from office be paid and ordered that the sum of N1 million be paid to him as damages. Justice Ige, therefore, dismissed the case for lacking in merit and the Industrial Court judgment is hereby affirmed. Dissatisfied by his unjust removal, Dauda challenged his removal in court, saying that his dismissal from service did not follow due process and was wrongful.
