The Federal Government of Nigeria has been urged to allow the suspended head of IRT, DCP Abba Kyari, to be extradited to the United States to face the allegations from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) over the Hushpuppi scandal.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo worldwide gave the advise in a statement on Sunday by its Secretary-General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro.
The apex Igbo socio-cultural group also advised the FG not to let Kyari remain in Nigeria with his recent arrest by National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that the United States Department of Justice had said ongoing investigations showed that notorious internet fraudster, Ramon Olorunwa Abbas, popularly known as Hushpuppi allegedly bribed Kyari to arrest one Kelly Chibuzo Vincent, one of his accomplices in Nigeria.
This publication had also reported that the NDLEA, narrated how it filmed the moment suspended Head of the Intelligence Response Team, DCP Abba Kyari, was negotiating a drug deal for the release of 25kg of cocaine and offered $61,400 cash to NDLEA officer.
“Rather than keeping him here in Nigeria, he should be extradited to the United States to face the allegations from FBI over the Hushpuppi scandal and criminal activities.
“DCP Abba Kyari should be allowed to face his crimes in the United States. This will serve as a deterrent to others; this will bolster the fight against corruption.
“The activities of suspended DCP Abba Kyari in Imo State and the Southeast was dubious and controversial based on the fact that those who were allegedly killed by Abba Kyari, should have been allowed to face the consequences of their actions in any competent court of jurisdiction.
“The overflow of corpses of Igbo youths at the FMC Owerri and other places in the South-East was the alleged handiwork of IRT team, led by Kyari; no wonder that nemesis caught up with Abba Kyari so quickly. His appetite for the looting of his suspect’s belongings and cash is second to none; that’s why he was obsessed with covetousness and greed to the point of being unaware of the video recording that was used by the NDLEA against him.”
“There is no evidence that IPOB was after Abba Kyari. Nemesis is hunting Kyari. Nigerians want a thorough investigation of the alleged criminal indictment of Abba Kyari and subsequent extradition to the United States.”
