The Federal Bureau of Investigation has revealed how Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari left his official duty in Nigeria to spend a good time with notorious Internet fraudster Ramon Olorunwa Abbas popularly known as Hushpuppi in Dubai.
According to FBI, Kyari abandoned his job as a police officer in Nigeria in September 2019 and travelled to Dubai to have a great time with Hushpuppi, who lived at Palazzo Versace in the Emirati commercial capital.
WITHIN NIGERIA had reported that Hushpuppi pleaded guilty to conspiracy to engage in money laundering of funds from business email compromise scams and other online heists.
Based on the copies of the agreement shared by Journalist Evan Ratif, the 38-year-old now faces up to 20 years in prison.
The FBI documents revealed that Hushpuppi “sent a car and driver to drive” Mr Kyari around “during that trip,” which was only an episode of a mutually-beneficial cozy affair between both men.
The indictment also showed that during the trip, Kyari bragged to Hushpuppi about some of his so-called crime-busting activities in Nigeria, to which Hushpuppi responded by playing allegiance to the police chief, The Peoples Gazette reports.
“Am really happy to be ur boy,” Hushpuppi told Kyari in an intercepted message. “I promise to be a good boy to u sir.”
The U.S. Department of Justice, also accused Kyari of carrying out Hushpuppi’s order to arrest and jail a fellow conspirator, Kelly Chibuzo Vincent, in a fraud scheme after a disagreement over a $1.1 million dupe of a Qatari businessperson.
