Younger Kyari keeps showing up in criminal investigations; authorities silent

Ex-DCP Abba Kyari may have chosen to shield his younger brother Usman as revelations of criminal manipulation keep piling up, and the supercop is taking all the heat.

But it is not clear yet if the police authorities and the NDLEA will bear down on the closest accomplice to the disgraced deputy police commissioner.

Usman has featured in two investigation findings by the two agencies so far.

First, the police special investigative panel report on the FBI-Hushpuppi-Kyari tangle fingered the youngman among the mules that ferried and laundered blood money for Kyari.

“A junior brother to DCP Kyari is a major beneficiary of funds from the Zenith Bank account of Hussaini Ala from where he at different times received various sums totaling N218, 120, 000,” the police panel constituted last year said in its report.

“He also received the sum of N44m in multiple transactions from DCP Abba Kyari.’’

But the panel or any other government enforcement uit of the police didn’t question Usman.

There were media reports in the wake of Kyari’s suspension in July that his younger brother lived in the lap of luxury.

His profile on social media picturing him with glitzy cars in garages of highbrow building confirmed he had a lot going for him.

Some said cars Kyari collected from kidnappers he and his IPP Intelligence Response Team brokered deals with ended up in Usman’s garage—or car mart.

Usman quickly deleted those vanities from his social media platforms then.

But his role in his brother Kyari’s criminal enterprise goes farther.

Usman is Kyari face some times. He was –or almost was—in the narc scheme the finally bombed in the cop’s face.

According to NDLEA’s spokesman, Kyari was going to send his younger brother to deliver $61,000 in cash to the agency’s officer that was in the middle of the sting op that got Kyari on January 26.

“Kyari offered to send his younger brother to deliver the payment while his men deliver the suspects,” Femi Babafemi said in press statement on Monday.

“But our officer turned down the suggestion, insisting he would rather deal with him in person.”

Babafemi didn’t state whether the agency would invite Usman as of the time of the presser.

So far all other accomplices—Efe Martins, Sikiru Adekoya, Usman Ibrahim, and Hussaini Ala in the cyberscam scheme—have been arrested and detained. Except Usman.

Sunday Ubuah, ASP Bawa James, Inspector Simon Agrigba and John Nuhu—all members of the IRT involved in the drug deals have also been arrested.

The agency has yet to state it’s focusing on Kyari’s relationship tree, or following any trail his brother Usman, a known criminal go-between, left behind.

Yet there’s no doubting the amount of information any willing agency can wring out of the young perp.
