Abuja – The Federal ministry of justice in Abuja has given the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) the go ahead to seize the property and bank accounts of DCP Abba Kyari and his accomplices involved in alleged illegal cocaine business.

It was gathered that the Minister in charge of the ministry, Abubakar Malami, SAN, who also double as the country’s attorney-general gave the approval following a request to that effect by the NDLEA.

A senior officer in the Ministry of Justice said, “the AGF has endorsed the request by the NDLEA, seeking approval for the confiscation of the assets of Abba Kyari, Ubua, and the other police officers involved in drug dealing.

“With the approval, the drug agency can now go after their property such as real estate, bank accounts, cash, vehicles, stocks, bonds and anything of monetary value.”

Kyari, the former Commander, Inspector-General of Police Intelligence Response Team and his accomplices stand to forfeit billions of Naira worth of assets, cash and money in bank accounts; vehicles, hotels, residential and commercial buildings; personal effects such as wristwatches, jewellery and other valuables to the Federal Government.

The anti-nacortics agency had reportedly traced about N4.2bn to Kyari and one of his co-accused, ACP Sunday Ubua’s bank accounts.

On March 7, the NDLEA arraigned Kyari, Ubua, Sunday Ubia, Bawa James, Simon Agirigba and John Nuhu, on eight-count charge of conspiracy, obstruction and dealing in cocaine, and other related offences before a Federal High Court, Abuja.

Two other suspects arrested at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu, Chibunna Patrick Umeibe and Emeka Alphonsus Ezenwanne, were also listed as defendants in the suit marked FHC/ABJ/57/2022.

The NDLEA Spokesman, Femi Babafemi, had earlier confirmed that the accused persons’ bank accounts would be frozen, adding that this was standard practice.(vitalnews)
