A  retired Assistant Inspector General of Police, AIG Austin Iwar has said that the arrest of Abba Kyari over the drug bust shows that there are many more Abba Kyaris in the Nigerian Police force system and there may be other officers committing even worse crimes.


Speaking in a Channels TV programme ‘Sunrise Daily’ on Wednesday, AIG Iwar said the fact that an officer who was on suspension as a result of his indictment by the FBI in the $1.1million Hushpuppi internet scam, was able to have some influence with police operatives and order them around, speaks volume.

Continuing he said, “The NPF has legal and constitutional backing to carry out investigations on crime including drugs. The fact that the Police is handing over the case to the NDLEA means that the Police want the NDLEA to do its job without interference.

“And for NDLEA to properly prosecute DCP Abba Kyari, in this drugs crime, the officer must be dismissed from the Nigerian Police force. So if the agency completes its investigation, and sends it to the Police, it will be sent to the Force Disciplinary Committee, who will to dismiss him before he can be prosecuted

Speaking further he said, “The Nigerian Police Force is a neglected organization, neglected by the government. The Police Council that is supposed to be responsible for supervision never works.

“The Police is supposed to be like the Board of Directors that sits and supervises but that is non-existent.

Regarding funding, he said, “There is nothing to fund core investigations and other core duties of the police. So officers are left with little alternative than to scout for funds for doing the job”.

The fight for corruption has not been stupider than now ever in history. You are only seeing drug barons and thieves indicted by the U.S but are blind to see those in our everyday news!

To fight corruption, simply ask Buhari's son where he got N60m to buy a power bike? An unemployed lazy youth? Where did he cough out such sums from. Where did he get the millions he used to replace the bike that got damaged!

Until you start arresting those known thieves, stop looking for the unknown.

The Nigeria Police system from time immemorial has been cesspits' of corrupt elements, a whole IG, Tafa Balogun was once arraigned at a Federal High Court for stealing and laundering of over $100 million.

As Fela talk am, Police station don turn to bank, DPO na bank manager, Police station do turn to bank, IG na managing director.

So you see my brother, overtake don overtake overtake

Not only in the police force, in every facet of our national life including nairaland
