Ejiofor raised the alarm in a statement after his visit to Kanu in the custody of the DSS in Abuja.
While stating that court orders must be obeyed, particularly where the order has not been set aside, he said the DSS is a creation of the law and must not be seen to be operating above the laws of the country which created it.
He said:
