Abba Kyari, the suspended deputy commissioner of police, was warmly welcomed by of his family and friends after his release from the Kuje Custodial Centre on Friday.

A video and pictures posted on X on Saturday showed Kyari sitting with his family , who beamed excitedly.

In one image, balloon decorations are seen in a house with the message, “Welcome Back”.

Kyari’s release comes 27 months after his arrest by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).

He was arrested on February 14, 2022, after the NDLEA declared him wanted over alleged links with an international drug cartel.

On March 7, 2022, Kyari was arraigned alongside Sunday Ubia, Bawa James, Simon Agirigba, and John Nuhu, of the police intelligence response team (IRT).

Others are Chibunna Patrick Umeibe and Emeka Alphonsus Ezenwanne, two suspected drug traffickers who were arrested at Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu.

Upon arraignment, Kyari and four other defendants pleaded not guilty.

However, Umeibe and Ezenwanne, the sixth and seventh defendants, pleaded guilty and were convicted accordingly.

On May 22, 2024, Emeka Nwite, the presiding judge, granted Kyari a two-week bail to allow him to partake in the burial rites of his mother, Yachilla Kyari, who died on May 5.

The judge ruled that Kyari should deposit his international port with the court and report to any NDLEA formation near him within the bail period.

The suspended D had also filed another application seeking bail.

The judge fixed May 31 for the determination of Kyari’s main application for bail in the drug trafficking charge.

The court granted Kyari bail on Friday. He was released shortly after perfecting his bail conditions.

Freedom at last

Kyari's arguments was just so funny. How some people insisted that the FBI were already in the country to repatriate Kyari to USA.

So many half baked lots

They can release all the criminals in Nigeria but not Nnamdi Kanu

Criminal. Hide your face in shame

He's going back to Kuje prison in two weeks time. His rent in Kuje is still running

Welcome back from prison

He still has questions to answer.
Was his case closed ?
Was the investigations concluded?
Was he prosecuted?
Did a judge hear his case?
Was he sentenced?
Did he serve jail time?

Abi na the usual Nigeria way, after orders from above, it ends in “go and sin no more”

No one is above the law in a sane country.

Unbelievable!

Are you sure he was in prison in the first place? Because I don't understand someone who went to prison comes back looking fresher than people who didn't. At least prison dey show for Nnamdi Kanu body and face.

Hmm... I don't trust Nigeria government o

He should be reinstated to the police force 😕

someone they are supposed to excommunicate. Celebrating the return of a criminal.

this is one of our problems WE DONT THINK.
We celebrate criminals, drug barons, thieves and expect a change in culture, how is that possible, How??
because of what you will eat

criminals should be seen as lepers, they are to be
out , outskirt of the town Until they are healed (truly remorseful).

I dislike this continent

That will never change the fact that he's a criminal cop that betrayed the trust of engagement.

There are a lot of his likes still in the system.

Since criminals are being granted bail, why is Nnamdi Kanu still held tho?

Alright

Just steal, do drugs and cybercrime, no one will prosecute in this country.


Our laws are only for the poor.
