A non governmental Organization named One Voice Development Initiative has appealed to President Tinubu’s intervention for the release of DCP Abba Kyari.
The Leader of the group Abbas Abdullah Yakasai made the plea while addressing journalist in Kano.
“Today, we gather here to shed light on the exemplary services and remarkable achievements of a true patriotic officer, a person, who dedicated his life to the service of our nation, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Abba Kyari.
“The journey so far and the prolonged incarceration of DCP Abba Kyari for more than 2 years now have raised serious concerns about the subversion of his constitutional rights and freedom for mere power play.
“DCP Abba Kyari is a distinguished officer within the Nigeria Police Force decorated with Triple IGP medals for Courage 2012, 2013, and 2014. Presidential Medal of Courage from President Muhammadu Buhari 2016, unprecedented Award for Outstanding Service to the Nation by the National Assembly 2020 amongst hundreds of other awards for excellence too numerous to mention.”
He said DCP Abba Kyari is a strategic initiatives and operational acumen who led to the successful apprehension of thousands of notorious criminals, terrorists, kidnappers, and the disruption of their nefarious activities, his efforts should not be left in vain.
“It is disheartening to witness the efforts of DCP Abba Kyari being tarnished by enemies of Nigeria and some groups of highly connected criminals and Terrorists with members both abroad and in Nigeria who have vowed to destroy Nigeria into pieces.
“These groups have been sponsoring hundreds of baseless accusations and concocted lies against the SuperCop since 2021.
“We Nigerians must be careful of these groups who have hundreds of thousands of members across the globe. They don’t like anything or any person that is good for Nigeria.”
He said the denial of bail to him for a baseless and fabricated set-up which is completely bailable represents a clear violation of his fundamental rights and a subversion of constitutional order.
“This injustice undermines the very fabric of our democratic society and reflects a disturbing trend of personal vendetta, vindictiveness, malice and envy overshadowing the pursuit of justice.
“The so-called charges pressed against DCP Abba Kyari are bailable in law, yet he remains unjustly incarcerated while hardened criminals and people who looted hundreds of Billions of Naira from Public funds are walking free today.
“This disparity in treatment is unacceptable and goes against the principles of fairness and equality enshrined in our constitution.
“As patriotic Nigerians committed to the advancement of our nation’s interests, the One Voice Development Initiative calls upon our Dear President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR.
” Please Mr President intervene decisively and ensure the immediate release of DCP Abba Kyari.
“We implore President Tinubu to direct the cessation of all frivolous, malicious charges and faceless claims against DCP Abba Kyari and allow him to resume his service to the nation.”
