Abba Kyari Is Getting Preferential Treatment, Unlike Kanu & Igboho – Falana
- Kyari, a Deputy Commissioner of Police, has been in the eye of the storm following his implication in a bribery scandal by international fraudster, Ramon Abbas aka Hushpuppi
- He has vehemently denied the allegations but has been suspended by the Police Service Commission (PSC) pending the outcome of investigation into the allegations
Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana has said there are too many injustices in Nigeria under President Muhammadu Buhari’s government.
Falana criticised the Federal Government’s hasty decision to extradite Sunday Adeyemo, popularly called Sunday Igboho, from Benin Republic to Nigeria just like it did with leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, but now following due process in the case of embattled police officer, Abba Kyari.
Falana while speaking with BBC Yoruba stressed that the Buhari-led administration’s injustice is obvious which was why he was against the hurried extradition of Kanu to Nigeria.

Falana said: “The Benin government made its Nigerian counterpart understand that its country is not lawless. They insisted on following the due legal processes and said without going to court, they cannot hand over Igboho to you.
“This is how it should be under the law; the judge will scrutinise Nigeria’s extradition request from Cotonou to Abuja.
“That was why I criticised the hasty transfer of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya to Nigeria. Now, the same Government wants Abba Kyari to go to court before he is transferred to the United States. And this is what the government should have done in the case of Kanu.
“There are too many injustices in Nigeria and this is not good.”I
