According to SaharaReporters, the EFCC was contacted to arrest Kyari however said no arrest can be made by the agency since Kyari is a police officer and that the case was not within the capacity of the EFCC but for the police to handle.

“FBI has contacted EFCC, asking that we arrest Abba Kyari but we told them that it is a police matter,” the source in the EFCC said

Following the allegation, the Inspector General of Police has ordered an internal review of all the allegations levelled against Kyari by Hushpuppi.

Kyari is currently been accused of allegedly receiving bribes to facilitate the arrest and imprisonment of a member of his online fraud gang identified as Chibuzo Vincent.
