EFCC is 'not intelligent' - Kemi Olulayo jabs over agencies silence on Kyari allegation

Controversial journalist, Kemi Olulayo has described the Economic and Finacial Crimes Commission (EFCC) as daft for its unreadiness to apprehend and pursue the allegation leveled against Deputy Police Commissioner, Abba Kyari.

Speaking in a chat with music producer/artiste, Samuel Oguachuba also known as SAMKLEF, the fiesty blogger said the allegations leveled against Mr. Kyari should be top on the list of issues the antigraft agency must attend to.

Mr. Kyari was fingered by Ramon Abass popularly known as Hushpuppi in a $1.1m scam.

He is alleged to have received N8 million to arrest and jail Kelly Chibuzo Vincent, the internet fraudster’s co-conspirator, intercepted communication obtained by FBI indicated.

He denied any wrongdoing after a court document exposed how Mr. Abbas bribed him to arrest Mr. Chibuzo following a dispute over the proceeds of crime.

In a statement on Facebook, the senior police officer narrated that Mr. Abbas called him two years ago to complain about a person threatening to kill his family.

He said the suspect was released after discovering there was no threat to anyone’s life, “and they are longtime friends who have money issues between them.”

“Nobody demanded a kobo from Abbas Hushpuppi,” Mr Kyari asserted in his Facebook post, claiming that he later introduced Mr Abbas to his tailor and then facilitated the purchase of cloths for him for just N300,000.

But details of their conversations indicated that Mr Kyari received money to have Mr Chibuzo detained for five weeks upon the instruction by Mr Abbas, Peoples Gazette reports.
