The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, has confirmed that the disgraced suspended Head of the Inspector General of Police’s Intelligence Response Team, IRT, DCP Abba Kyari is in its custody.
A release signed by NDLEA’s Spokesman, Femi Babafemi, said Kyari was driven into the NDLEA Headquarters, along with four other suspects by 5.00pm Monday.
Few hours after he was declared wanted by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, over his involvement in a 25 kilograms Cocaine deal, the Nigerian Police Force has handed over the suspended DCP Abba Kyari, the erstwhile Commander of the Intelligence Response Team (IRT), at the Force Intelligence Bureau of the Nigerian Police Force, to the anti- narcotic agency.
“Five of the wanted suspects, namely: DCP Abba Kyari, ACP Sunday J. Ubuah, ASP Bawa James, Inspector Simon Agirgba, and Inspector John Nuhu, were driven into the National Headquarters of NDLEA in Abuja around 5.00pm on Monday 14th February to formally hand them over for interrogation and further investigation.
The Agency wishes to assure that no stone will be left unturned to ensure that all suspects already in custody and those that may still be indicted in the course of investigation will face the full weight of the law at the end of the ongoing probe.”
The NDLEA shocked not a few Nigerians on Monday, February 14, 2022, by exposing Kyari’s dirty involvement with drug barons.
