Inspector General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, has said that he was yet to receive an extradition request from the U.S based Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), on DCP Abba Kayri.
The FBI had in July 2021 requested for the extradition of Kyari over the cop’s indictment in a $1.1million cyber fraud involving internet fraudster, Abass Ramon, also known as ‘Hushppuppi’.
IGP Alkali Baba said the force has, however, received legal advice from the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation, on the next step to be taken on the matter.

On the security situation in the Southeast and North West, IGP Alkali said, the police is doing everything to improve on the current situation.
On the nationwide #EndSARS protest, the Police boss explained that the force lost over N18 billion to the protest, with over thirty thousand ammunition carted away.
He noted that over a thousand seven hundred and seventeen firearms have been recovered, and efforts are on to curb the proliferation of illicit firearms in the country.
He said the police is currently prosecuting over twenty thousand cases at different courts, with one thousand five hundred and seventy convictions already secured by the force’s legal department.
