Court Rejects FG’s Appeal For Abba Kyari’s Extradition To The US 

By Omotayo Olutekunbi

The Federal Government requested permission to extradite the suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Abba Kyari to the United States, but a Federal High Court in Abuja has denied that request (US).

In a ruling on Monday, Justice Inyang Ekwo ruled that the extradition request was an abuse of the legal system because Kyari was already facing criminal prosecution in Nigeria.

In connection with his claimed connection to the suspected international fraudster, Ramon Abbas, the US authorities had requested Kyari’s extradition from Nigeria (hushpuppi).

Last Thursday, the Central District of California, Los Angeles, US Attorney’s Office announced that hushpuppi will be sentenced on September 21, 2022.
