The inspector-general of police, IGP Usman
Alkali Baba, has recommended the
immediate suspension of the head of the
Police Intelligence Response Team (IRT), DCP
Abba Kyari, from the Service of the Nigeria
Police Force, pending the outcome of an
ongoing internal investigations of
allegations against him.
Force PRO, who stated this on Sunday
morning, said the IGP, in his letter to the
Police Service Commission (PSC), dated July
31, 2021, said the recommendation for the
suspension of the officer, was in line with
the internal disciplinary processes of the
Force.
The IGP further noted that the suspension is
also expected to create an enabling
environment for the NPF Special
Investigation Panel to carry out its
investigations into the weighty allegations
against DCP Kyari without interference.

He said the suspension is without prejudice
to the constitutional presumption of
innocence in favour of the officer.
The Special Investigation Panel (SIP),
comprising four senior police officers, is
headed by DIG Joseph Egbunike, the Deputy
Inspector General of Police in-charge of the
Force Criminal Investigations Department
(FCID).
Mba also said the SIP, inter alia, is to
undertake a detailed review of all the
allegations against DCP Kyari by the US
government as contained in relevant
documents that have been availed the NPF
by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

It's suspension NOT dismissal, pending the
outcome of the investigation. Nothing to be
sad upon, as the truth will always prevail,
and that's how law and regulations should
be allowed to work.

Ought to jostling to persecute this guy. He should be moving from several detention facilities to another.

The accusations against him from the FBI are too many. And obviously they border on obstruction of justice, obtaining by fraud, inducement and misapplication of Police powers. Treasonable felonies. Intention to mislead investigation. Conversion of state property.

How is he just getting suspended after a week of the initial report.

Does this mean that Police officers are allowed to break the law?

Nice one from the IGP
