Hushpuppi: Southern Leaders Behind Abba Kyari’s FBI Ordeal – Miyetti Allah

The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, (MACBAN) says some Nigerians of southern extraction connived with federal bureau of Investigation (FBI) to prosecute embattled Deputy Commissioner of Police and Head of the Intelligence Response Team (IRT) of the Nigeria Police Force, Abba Kyari.

The group also lampooned the Northern Elders Forum (NEF) for not standing up for Kyari amid allegations of corruption, and the arrest warrant on embattled Deputy .

The United States Attorney’s Office, Central District of California, had issued an arrest warrant against Kyari after he was indicted in an internet fraud and money laundering involving notorious fraudster and Instagram sensation Ramon Olorunwa Abbas, alias Hushpuppi

Hushpuppi has since pleaded guilty to the charges and, if convicted, risks a 20-year-jail term, three-year supervision upon completion of jail term, and monetary reparations in the region of $500,000 or more.

US court documents detailed a dispute among members of the Hushpuppi syndicate presumably on how to share their cyber loot, which allegedly prompted him to arrange to have an individual identified as ‘co-conspirator’ Kelly Chibuzor Vincent, jailed in Nigeria by DCP Kyari.

According to the affidavit, “Kyari is a highly decorated deputy commissioner of the Nigeria Police Force who is alleged to have arranged for Vincent to be arrested and jailed at Abbas’ behest, and then sent Abbas photographs of Vincent after his arrest.

Finally, Abba Kyari Suspended From Police Duties

“Kyari also allegedly sent Abbas bank account details for an account into which Abbas could deposit payment for Vincent’s arrest and imprisonment.”

Kyari was suspended by the Police Service Commission on Sunday.

Speaking during the weekend, National President of MACBAN, Dr Garus Gololo said NEF, said it was shameful that the northern Elders were quiet while the US and some elements in Southern Nigeria were conniving to persecute “shining stars” in the North.

He said the forum failed in its main responsibility of protecting the interest of the North.

Gololo alleged that same treatment being meted out to Kyari was done to former Chairmen of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Lamorde and Ibrahim Magu and a former member of the House of Representatives and Chairman of the House Committee on Petroleum, Farouk Lawan.

He said while the US through the FBI and some elements in the South of Nigeria have connived to persecute “shining stars from the region using the media”, stakeholders in the North have remained silent amid the crisis.

“It is a shame that the Northern Elders Forum and other groups in the region would fold their hands and watch while sons of the north who have distinguished themselves in different fields are constantly being persecuted and maligned at the height of their careers,” he said.

“The United States is not the most honest country in the world. What they are doing to Kyari, they did it to Donald Trump and Al Gore.

“Let him stand firmly and defend himself because he is Nigeria’s future Inspector General of Police, and he mustn’t allow himself to be rattled.”
