It’s Strange US Court Ordered Abba Kyari’s Arrest – PSC

• The US wants Kyari extradited to answer questions on allegations of bribery levelled against him by fraudster, Ramon Abbas aka Hushpuppi
• Although, the Inspector-General of Police has ordered a review of the allegations but the PSC claims it is yet to receive a formal report

The Police Service Commission (PSC) has said it found it strange that a United States Court would order the arrest of Abba Kyari – a Nigerian citizen residing in Nigeria.

The comission, responsible for disciplinary control and recruitment into the police force, on Saturday, said it is yet to receive a formal report on the allegations against Kyari, a Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP).

The Commissioner in charge of Media on the board of the PSC, Austin Braimoh declared that they would not be bound by the IG’s review of the allegations against Kyari.

“The PSC has no position on the allegations against DCP Abba Kyari for now.

“This is because no formal report is before the Commission on the officer. All we hear are mere allegations from media outlets. No constitutional body works with such. A formal report must come to the Commission from somewhere or someone. Besides, we heard that a United States Court either indicted or ordered his arrest. It sounds strange to me that a US court could order the arrest of a non-citizen, a Nigerian citizen resident in Nigeria.

“Nigeria is a sovereign nation with its laws and justice systems. We surely must be guided by our own Attorney General, and also guided by our own courts, internal investigations and to trust our justice system,” Braimoh told The Nation newspaper.
