HushPuppi: Malami Orders Further Probe of Abba Kyari | Daily Report Nigeria

The Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, has denied reports of exonerating suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari.

The Chief Justice of Nigeria made the disclaimer while reacting to reports that he exonerated the embattled super cop, who is facing trial on charges bordering on illegal drug business.

This follows reports that Malami had made a U-turn, weeks after asking a probe into the proceeds of the crime received by Mr Kyari, saying there was no evidence against him.

Malami, in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media and Public Relations, Dr. Umar Gwandu in Abuja, described the reports as a “misunderstanding regarding the issue,” saying he only ordered for further probe into the case for evidence.

He said, “It was a case of work in progress in respect of which the office of the Attorney General of the Federation requested for further probe in relation to some aspects of investigation.

“It was clear that the conclusion on the alleged contradiction on the issue was a clear case of misconception.

“The office of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice’s stance is that no conclusion has been reached in the direction of absence of evidence relating to the first report.

“The issues were raised for further investigation with a view to cover the field in investigation in order to arrive at an informed decision.”
