Abba Kyari’s Team TORTURED Me For Days, Forced Me To Transfer N41 Million- Real Estate Manager Tells Panel.
Just as if the FBI- Hushpuppi indictment of the deputy commissioner of police, DCP Abba Kyari was not enough, more scaring and unbelievable stories are beginning to unfold- all point that the ” super brave cop” has soiled his reputation with corrupt practices.
It could be recalled that DCP Abba Kyari not until his suspension was among the Inspector General of Police special team which was tasked with the clamping down of the Indigenous People Of Biafra, IPOB, security unit, ESN(Eastern Security Network).

During this time, the team was accused of violation of human rights by the IPOB alleging that those they killed or arrested were innocent Igbo people who were not ESN members.

The victim testified in front of the Lagos Judicial Panel on Saturday about how SARS officials led by Abba kyari compelled him to wire N41 million to one Edward Obinna and wrongfully collected other monies from him on various occasions.

Mr Mojeed, 38, was arrested on October 18, 2014, at his home in Victory Estate, Ajah. He was 32 years old at the time.
MR MOJEED’ s ORDEAL AND TESTIMONY
“I was in my apartment around 8- 9 p. m. in my sitting room with my 2- year- old son and my mother-in-law watching the TV. My wife was in the kitchen cooking, she was five months pregnant
“I heard a big bang on my door with a voice saying open this door or I bring down the door, ” Mr Mojeed had revealed to the panel.
He claimed he assumed it was armed robbers, but found the bravery to open the door, only to be met by four armed mufti men who pounced on him the moment he did.
Mr Mojeed claimed that the guys beat him to the ground and that his pregnant wife, who was shouting and asking what the problem was, was slapped numerous times.
THE FORCEFUL ARREST OF MR MOJEED
“They chained my legs on the floor and handcuffed my hands behind me.
“In the process of doing that, one of the men pulled my wedding ring from my finger and collected my Tissot wristwatch from my table. They also collected my wife’s wedding rings with several slaps.
“They went to my room, approached my cupboard, they picked the sum of N280, 000 and ransacked all aspects of my house. “
ITEMS COLLECTED BY DCP KYARI AND HIS TEAM
” The armed men, whose identities were unknown at the time, ransacked and seized several documents, which included my:
Zenith Current account chequebook, ATM card, my Diamond Corporate Account chequebook, four documents of my landed properties, two of my shop documents, ID cards, my car documents, and the car key to my Honda accord 2008. “
” The men searched my car, took the sum of N50, 000 from the car, then took me to their Sienna car and drove off. “
” I was tortured by the SARS officers till around 2: 00 a. m. and was thereafter put in a cell. “
” The police came the next day to ask for the password to my phone which l gave them. “

” They came back that I should give them the password to my account. They collected the ATM, but I gave them the wrong pin, so they couldn’ t cash out. “
” Later that day, they pointed at Edward Obinna that I defrauded him of N97 million. Immediately I asked Mr Edward how much I defrauded him. He said he paid to my corporate account and I asked them to allow me to get the bank statement to show proof. “
” He later changed it that he paid to Yusuf Olatunji Balogun who is my cousin, the sum of N97million to procure some earth- moving equipment and he has been working with Mr Olatunji Balogun for the past two years and that Mr Balogun paid into my account and the money was with me”
” Mr Yusuf pays me though, I buy properties for him and whenever he is in Nigeria, I tender his documents to him. I have never seen Mr Obinna or had any business dealings with him, he also admitted that he does not know me. “
” The torture by the police continued even as l was handcuffed, hung and beaten with the flat side of a machete by the police. “
THINGS THAT HAPPENED UNDER DCP KYARI’ s WATCH
” On October 22, under the supervision of Abba Kyari, I signed a check from my account, N150, 000 twice, to a faceless Nurudeen Alabi.
“I was taken to Eco Bank at Ikota, Ajah that same day that I had money there. There was an amount I fixed with Eco bank, they brought me to unfix it and transfer the money to them. The total amount was N15 million. The account manager suspected something was off and did not accept my application. “
” They wanted me to transfer N41 million from my Diamond corporate account to Edward Obinna. Due to the process of terminating the fee, they asked me to come back the following day.
” I was returned to Ikeja, where the police started another round of torture saying l played a prank on them. “
” At this time, they beat me that I could not see anymore, I was just hearing words, ” he said with tears in his eyes.
” After I regained consciousness, they took me back to the cell. Around midnight, they brought me out with some inmates to unload three dead bodies in the Hilux bus and threatened that if I didn’ t comply, that is how they will waste me. “
” On October 23, the following day, they took me back to Ajah, Diamond Bank. Before getting to the bank, they stopped at a boutique and bought me new clothes, jeans and cleaned me up and wore me the new clothes they bought for me. “
” Mr Edward Obinna was behind us in his car, following us. I was being led inside the bank, two officers went inside with me and sat like customers. “
” Mr Obinna accompanied me to where l picked a transfer form and wired N41 million to his account. We waited at the bank until he received the alert.
” I was later tortured and told to write a note and sign it that l transferred N41Million to Mr Obinna willingly. “
” On October 24, 2014, l was taken to another Zenith bank branch, where l transferred N800, 000 to the same Mr Edward. l also paid another sum of N150, 000 through a cheque to Nurudeen Alabi under the supervision of Abba Kyari, the then OC, SARS.
” After achieving their objective, the police put a call through to my wife that she can terminate the presence of my lawyer that they are going to resolve the matter. “
” With the persistence of my lawyer, l was arraigned and released on bail on October 31, 2014, after spending 14 days in Police custody. “
” I suffered poor sight and could not hear properly after the incident. I went to Ajeromi General Hospital, Ajegunle, where l was treated.
THE SARS MENACE AND ABBA KYARI’ s APPOINTMENT BY THE IGP
It could be recalled that sometime in October last year there was a massive protest against the unholy and gruesome activities of the Federal Special Anti- Robbery Squad, SARS.
During this process, the lives of many peaceful young Nigerians were cut short by some members of the defunct SARS officers so also was it with the shooting at the lekki toll gate, allegedly carried out by the military.
I wonder why Abba Kayri wasn’t discovered to be part of this dreaded SARS.
Rather the Inspector General of Police saw it best to absorb the embattled FBI wanted Abba Kyari and his team into his special squad to tackle the IPOB- ESN agitation in the southeast.
WHAT NEXT(CONCLUSION)
Since the FBI had carried out investigations and found that Abba Kyari had a role to play in the Hushpuppi BEC cybercrime is clear evidence of contempt of a man who before his current ordeal had been tagged brave, corrupt free and diligent.
It clearly shows that there may be more case files and suits that may start to roll out at this point since the NPF had suspended and distanced itself from the ” Super Cop’ s” plight and indictment by the FBI and the U. S. government.
