Nigeria’s National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) on Monday declared suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), Abba Kyari, wanted over alleged links with an international drug cartel.
Femi Babafemi, the spokesperson for NDLEA, made the announcement during a short press conference held at the Headquarters of the agency.
This announcement is coming amidst the Hushpuppi scandal and investigation.
Until his suspension by the Police Service Commission (PSC), DCP Kyari was the officer-in-charge of the Inspector-General of Police Intelligence Response Team (IGP-IRT).
A report by the Federal Bureau of Investigation of the United States of America (FBI) had earlier indicted him in the case of fraud involving Instagram celebrity, Ramon Abbas, popularly known as Hushpuppi.
