As Nigerians still anticipate what becomes of the embattled Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari over his aledged involvement with international Cyber fraudster, Hushpuppi, a constitutional lawyer and Human Rights Activist, Mike  Ozekhome, SAN, has given a reason why the United States’ Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI, cannot just come to Nigeria to arrest the suspended DCP, without going through the proper constituational process.

Kyari has been indicted by the US’ FBI authority in a fraud case against, Ramon Abass, popularly known as Hushpuppi in the United States.

A court in the United States has therefore ordered  the FBI to arrest Mr. Kyari and bring him to face Justice in the country.

He said, “When America demanded Abba Kyari, I heard people say the FBI can now arrest Abba Kyari. No, you can’t do that.

“Nigeria is a sovereign country, for crying out loud, no matter how down in the doldrums we’ve become.

“The FBI can’t simply come here and pick up Abba Kyari. You must go through the extradition process as established in the Extradition Act of the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 2004. You’ve to look at Sections 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of the extradition act.”

“Going through extradition, the Attorney General of the country has a crucial role to play under the Extradition Act, he and a magistrate, or under Section 251 of the constitution, a judge of a federal high court.

“The country requesting for extradition, like the US, must make a formal request through its consular or representative in Nigeria that we want this man in our country.”
