The Peoples Democratic Party has called for a forensic investigation into the reports that indicates that the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation linked the head of the IGP Intelligence Response Team, DCP Abba Kyari, with international fraudster, Abbas Ramon, a.k.a Hushpuppi.
The PDP’s demand came in a statement made available to journalists by Kola Ologbondiyan, its National Publicity Secretary, in Abuja, on Thursday.
The statement read that the alleged involvement of Kyari as a receiver of proceeds of international fraud was worrisome and disturbing.
“Our party demands that the APC should not sweep this matter under the carpet given the manifest rapport between Kyari and some top APC leaders.
“We urge President Muhammadu Buhari not to ease out this case of corruption but should immediately restore the integrity and image of our nation by allowing for a forensic investigation on the suspect.
“Moreover, if this Kyari matter is not well handled, it will be a permanent stain on the reputation of our police, security system and our nation at large.
“The PDP asks President Buhari to direct the Inspector General of Police to take in Abba Kyari for questioning and if found culpable, he should be handed over to the FBI,” the statement read.
